On summer days the stream of people was endless, marriage after marriage. White wedding dresses, flowers, bridesmaids and groomsmen paraded through the chapel as pictures were snapped. Usually, when people get married, dreams are being launched and fulfilled. Granted, there are the practical concerns about good providers, social pressure and even unplanned children. But even amongst these, there are dreams.
People dream of love, warmth, commitment and conversation.
There are plans for honeymoons, houses, promotions, children and eventually retirement. People growing old together, long in love and now also the best of friends. Whether the chance meeting that launches a marriage occurs at church, a bar, work or arranged by friends the dreams begin. Often the fulfillment of dreams held since childhood. The first glance, the first touch, the first kiss and the first passionate tryst in bed all play into this magic.
