What makes for a good wedding? What “wedding stuff” must absolutely be present for a wedding to be considered a good wedding? In order for a wedding to stand out and be absolutely memorable, it must seek to channel some of the unique character of the bride and groom themselves – it must be as intensely personal as they themselves are.

Of course for starters, at weddings, anything goes depending on what the bride and groom want – under the general heading of “wedding” many things are possible; indeed given what transpires in many weddings, it seems that just about anything is possible. For instance, the bride and groom may elect to have an entourage or not; they may decide to be married in a chapel or church, or get married outside or far away from it; they may want to have a wedding on the beach or even underwater, as at least one or two couples have done in the past. So what sort of wedding stuff needs to be present to make a wedding a wedding – without which a wedding cannot be considered a wedding at all?

The first thing, of course, is the partners themselves! If they or their proxies elect not to show up, then of course the wedding cannot be considered valid, because a wedding, whether it is a civil wedding or a church wedding, cannot be considered valid without either the partners or their proxies in attendance.

Next are the oaths the partners must say to each other in the presence of the person who validates the marriage and the witnesses as well. These oaths may be the partners’ own or may stick to a prescribed formula. They must state what the partners promise each other and are read out loud for all present to hear.

Next is the person to whom the partners or their proxies must present themselves and who validates the marriage. This can be a priest in a church wedding or it can be a government official at a civil wedding. This person signs the marriage certificate which states that said wedding is legal and binding for either the church or in the eyes of the government.

Next are the witnesses, who attest to the fact that the marriage did take place and that it was duly and legally contracted.

As was mentioned earlier, the presence of the “rest” of the wedding stuff and its composition – the bridal entourage, the reception itself, the wedding rings, the sponsors, the venue, and even the honeymoon and the guests – will depend entirely on the partners and what they desire. These aforementioned elements, however, do not count; it is the elements discussed in this article that cannot be absent if any marriage is to be considered legal and binding.
