These days are not without good reason. However, in the earlier years of this century, some opposed all three as non-Biblical. Their position was that these observances were non-Biblical and too individualistic, that a better vein would be the family. Scripture has much to say about the Biblical family.
Biblical law requires the dowry, a sizeable amount, as the wife's protection against abandonment.
This protected the girls in a family, in that the bridegroom had to accumulate considerable wealth before marrying to provide a dowry. This system protected Jewish families over the centuries when they were without a state or a synagogue. It is needed now to advance Christian civilization. Since the family is the focus of three of the Ten Commandments, it seems strange that it is so much neglected in preaching and teaching. Strong Christian families make for not only a strong church but also a strong civilization.
