Love
It is the most obvious reason. Knowing that you want to spend the rest of your life with that special someone is clearly enough to get married.
Projects
Getting married could be what you need to let go of your fears and start planning. For many, it is the best moment to start saving for a trip, to start a business or to look for a house.
Children
When a couple decides to have children, the fact of being married makes things much easier in several aspects such has the recognition of parenthood in official documents, at school, in medical decisions and in legal responsibility.
Setting an example
For your children, being married shows a sense of long-term engagement and the capacity to take the needs of others into account when making a decision, even though these decisions have a huge impact on your life. Your marriage sets a good example of stability and trust and this image of a successful relationship will give them something to dream about, as they get older.
Untouchable
For most people, being married means “do not touch!” When we tell everyone that we are married, people have no doubt about our relationship and will engage in conversations with that in mind. It could help you find true friends and avoid tricky situations.
Personal finance
When preparing your tax return, you can transfer amounts from one person to the other and avoid paying extra taxes. It is also beneficial because you can combine charity donations and invest in a RPSP together and make it a better investment.
Security
We are never protected from bad luck and diseases and being married gives you the assurance of having someone by your side to make the same decisions you would have made. This person has the legal power to protect you and defend you when you cannot do it yourself. It is also nice to know that someone will grow old wit you and know you almost as much as you know yourself.
The dress
Yes, a beautiful wedding also means shopping with your friends and family, building a wedding list and tasting all kinds of delicious cakes. It is one of the most glamorous parts of the wedding, along with the pictures that will freeze this extraordinary moment in time.
The ceremony
The beating hearts, fear, tears of joy and all the tender moments that precede your wedding are worth every second of it! Choosing a place where you will tell your loved one the famous “I do!” is a magical thing that is hard to beat.
Honeymoon
Another cute and memorable thing that glues you together is the honeymoon. Travelling together to a lovely place where you will spoil each other is an excellent way to celebrate the love that just united you for better and for worse.
