Wedding: Church or Civil or Both?

ask lang ko f uso ang secret marriage karon.. hehe
wat age manjud pwede....

there is no such thing as secret marriage....people refer to civil wedding when they're talking about secret marriage...
it's been practiced by people since ang procedure sa civil wedding is somewhat faster compared to church kay ang church naa pa pre-cana seminars and blessing from the bishop or any priest in charge of the said venue of the wedding...
while in civil wedding, all you need are two witnesses...to attest that in deed there is a ceremony on that so and so day... for the age...both parties must be of legal age, which is 18yrs old in our standards....18-24 yrs old party must secure a document we call parental consent....parental consent can be signed by any relative of the concerned party...pwede ang tita,tito or any of the parents....without this, the judge won't perform any wedding...
while ang parties aging 25-26 need parental advise...this is not necessary....anyone can just sign over this document....so mao ni ingon sa uban nga secret marriage kay pwede ra ang consintidor nga tita or tito ang mopirma ani nga mga documents....anyway, civil wedding is considered public document....and therefore, open for public viewing...anyone can check on the civil registry and it's not secret after all.....

one more thing.....some may find civil wedding risky kay since not everyone will know of this celebration, there is a risk nga ang imong partner kay dakong minyo diay.....unlike sa church wedding kay mga three consecutive weeks jud na siya i-announce sa simbahan ang intentions sa parties nga magpakasal....i-post pa jud na siya sa bulletin board sa church...in that way, secured ka nga wlay legal impediments ang imong partner....sure jud ka nga ulitawo ug daga ang kaslon...pero naa pa gani gihapon makalusot nga minyo like sa XXX sa abs-cbn..

Church wedding because it also is a way of showing your partner that he/she means a lot, since you are walking the aisle together. It also has the blessing of the Lord. But either way it's up to the couple, whether married in a civil or church setting, to really make the relationship prosper & maintain the loving/caring atmosphere.

it's actually not true bro...

ang period of 5 years is a ratification for those couples who are living without the benefit of marriage....pwede na sila di mo go thru sa usual procedures....they don't need the marriage license to get married....kinahanglan man gud ning marriage license para makasal ang babae ug lalaki....after sa ceremony kay makakuha na dayon sila ug marriage certificate to attest nga married sila....

whether civil or church ang wedding wala na siya expiration....

so bro, civil wedding is just for marriage certificate lang ba?

What's the point of this question? Kung asa mas mu-last ang marriage? Isn't this the point of marriage in the first place? Para nako, it doesn't really matter kung civil or church, or marrying at all. Wala man any guarantee from either of the weddings, nor did anyone find out nga kung magpakasal sa simbahan it will last longer than civil. Marriage fails in both both ways, and we also have successful marriages from both forms of wedding, its all papers and signatures. It is maybe a matter of how each one keeps the marriage an everyday thing (not a one-day thing), a daily courtship and a good amount of friendship. The rest is a bonus. By the way, I was married in the church. Like I said, no guarantee. But for over 9 years now, so far so goood!

sakto jud ka bro....no matter how extravagant you celebrate a wedding but if the compatibility of the couple is not that perfect....then the marriage is doomed to be set aside in the gutter..... when contemplating about marriage, one must think a million times....it's a lifetime commitment, mind you.....
but i am more than willing to take the risk just to be in the arms of my significant other forever....

maybe most of the girls would really prefer a long walk down the aisle than just standing still in front of a judge inside his chamber....
