Weddings are about many things: Romance certainly, with the (hopefully long lasting) union of man and woman in either sacred or secular happy matrimony. A sense of occasion therefore cannot help but be strongly involved in the drama of the day, however humble the surroundings may be. It is also about the coming together of two families, the making of new friends, the sweet sadness of parents who see the final evidence that their little girl or boy is that no longer, and of course, the free drinks at the reception.
