I chose my wife, as she did her wedding gown, for qualities that would wear well.

In the '50s, a lot of girls never saw beyond the wedding day.

It was only literally hours after the wedding when he felt he didn't have to keep up the facade.

I don't know nothing about no marriages or nothing. I ain't even never been to a wedding.

Personally, I'm an advocate for short engagements. Long sometimes means there is a reason for it. Two years engaged and no wedding... I'd be upset.
