Marriage - A Bond Which Needs the Maximum Care and Attention

Marriages in India are not meant to be broken; they are groomed with the belief of getting stronger with each passing day. Whether its arranged marriage or love marriage, people always try to save their marriage and make their journey cheerful. Indian brides and grooms are instilled with the values of respecting the wedding bond and making each possible effort to fulfil the wishes of their life partner. The atmosphere in the Indian families, does not introduce their children to words like divorce or break- ups. From the very starting of their life, they are made to believe in the strength of the marriage bond.


All the customs performed in the marriages of India are to increase the life of the bond. India is a land full of cultures and religions, due to which different rituals and traditions are practiced respectively. The sanctity of the wedding customs remains the same, even with the change in time. Same ways, the respect and the dedication of the bride and groom towards marriage has to remain same, even the atmosphere or the mindset changes. This is one thing, which parents and the families in India, would not only expect but also never accept from their coming generations. New ways of treating life and modern approach all have been welcomed by the elders in the society, but taking the marriage bond lamely is not appreciated.

Problems or ups and downs in marriage life can be seen in a number of families, which are supposed to be tackled carefully. Intelligent and balanced approach towards life, can help the bride and groom, fight with the difficulties of married life. There are a lot of changes, which one experiences after getting married. These changes are on both the sides, i.e., of bride and groom both, and each of them expects the other one to bring their life back to normal. It is the duty of the brides and grooms to keep the factor of happiness alive in each other’s life. Marriages in India are celebrated with great spirits and bride and groom wait for the D-day, from the very beginning of their teen age. This dream can be lived in reality only, if the bride and groom both contribute equally towards the resurrection of optimism in their lives every day.

Many couples consult marriage counselors for a better married life. The consultation is taken from the experts both before and after marriage. Before marriage, couple generally consult to know their compatibility and whether they would be able to lead their life together or not.


After marriage, counselors are addressed with the marriage problems and the ways to sort out them. Thus, marriage counselors and agencies have started playing a significant role in helping the couple strengthen their wedding bond. The trend of these counselors has grown, due to the increasing dependency of common man on the single word called advice. To an extent using their services is not wrong, but as the Indian mythology goes, the couple should themselves try and solve their problems.

One most important step towards the accomplishment of a successful wedding bond is a proper communication between the spouses. Communication gaps, not only creates misunderstanding, but also lessen the amount of trust the couple has on each other. Talking about small-small things in life, en-root the wheels of marriage to a stable and a joyful wedding journey.
