There are many lies people are branding around about Church wedding that needed to be corrected as they have led lots of youth and singles astray, making many to incur heavy debts which take years to pay after the wedding guests had left.
Here are 13 lies you must not believe about church wedding.
1) IT MUST BE LOUD AND EXPENSIVE:
It need not be loud and expensive. You can do it in a very low-key and save yourself of unnecessary spending.
2) IT MUST BE ON SATURDAY:
Not at all, it can be on any day of the week, in fact, history has it that the original day for the wedding was Thursday, that is why a day before it was named Wednesday. Wed-the-next-day.
3) IT MUST BE IN A CHURCH:
No, a church wedding can take place in a Pastors office or any other hall, where the groom, bride, Pastor and their families are present. It’s not compulsory to be in the church auditorium
4) THERE MUST BE RECEPTION:
Reception is good but it’s not compulsory.
5) THERE MUST BE BRIDAL TRAIN:
It’s not bridal train that makes Marriage work but bridal training. Bridal train adds glamour to the wedding but they don’t determine the success of marriage.
6) THERE MUST BE CAKE:
Cake is not a compulsion if you don’t have money to bake one, that does not determine the success of your marriage
7) THERE MUST BE WEDDING RING:
The wedding ring is just a sign that you are married, you should be joined with a Bible in a Church, then bless your ring and use it.
8: THERE MUST BE WHITE WEDDING GOWN:
you can wear native dress for your Church wedding,it need not be wedding gown
9) BRIDES THAT WEAR ANY OTHER COLOR OF WEDDING GOWN IS NOT PURE:
That is not true,you can determine the color of the gown you want.
10) THERE MUST BE BRIDAL SHOWER:
Bridal shower is a Hollywood creation not part of the Church wedding at all,so don’t go into debt because of that
11) THERE MUST BE PRE WEDDING PHOTO SHOOT:
This is good but it is not compulsory, don’t go into debt because of this.
12) WEDDING GOWN CAN’T BE BORROWED
We have many bridal shops that are renting out wedding gown nowadays, this saves money and time, it’s not bad it’s encouraged since the gown is just for a day, why not renting one?
13) YOU CAN BE PREGNANT AND GO FOR CHURCH WEDDING!
In every gospel and real Bible preaching church, this is not allowed. It’s also not Biblical, two are expected to be joined together during the wedding and not three or four as the case of a pregnant lady been joined to a Man.
May the Lord give you more understanding in Jesus name.
