If I ever get married, I want a court wedding. Why are Malayali parents so against it?
So I told my mom that if I ever get married, there would be no engagement, no wedding venue- just a court wedding. That’s it. And in the evening, I’d arrange a small party for the relatives.
And when I find someone who has the same views and is on board with those choices, that would be the day I get married.
And hearing this, she went completely silent. Her face literally went gloomy. Omg, I was like, wtf 😭. I can’t even have a choice in how I want my wedding day to be? I asked her what happened, and she just said, “Sometimes it’s best if I stay silent.” Lol. I can’t with her.
*I don’t like my relatives, nor do I like the idea of walking down the aisle or taking traditional wedding vows. I’d hate having to say that I’ll obey my husband and submit to my husband lol.* I’d much rather keep it simple, get legally married, and have a small party with family afterward.
If anyone thinks I’m in the wrong for wanting a court wedding, why is it wrong? And why are Malayali parents so against register marriages? Did your parents react the same way when you mentioned it?
