Marriage is an alluring idea for many reasons, both personal and practical. A personal reason is to fully express the love that you feel for another person. Marriage demonstrates your love for the person, and builds another solid foundation for the relationship to rest upon. Marriage also is beneficial for a number of legal reasons. Sharing property, belongings, and money becomes much simpler when you are legally bound through marriage. There are also lifesaving reasons to get married.

If you were present with your partner, but you were not legally married to them, you cannot grant the doctors permission to preform a lifesaving operation on them. Carrying on tradition and family heritage is another compelling reason to to married. In today's society, marriage is becoming less and less popular, as the younger generations wishes to opt out of what is seen as an impractical tradition. If you and your partner with to uphold this tradition and the ways that you were raised, getting married is an excellent way to do so.
