Also, it should be said that Christianity, as well as other religions, views the wedding and marriage as the process of uniting a bride and a groom. In fact, there are a lot of symbols that emphasize such a unity. For instance, there is a traditional ring exchange, or sharing of a cup of wine, or breaking of bread, and others. In such a way, a bride and a groom acts together sharing their responsibility, happiness, love being practically inseparable parts of the same unit, the family. At the same time, the wedding ceremony also symbolizes the change of the official status of a bride and a groom when they are officially proclaimed a husband and a wife.
Finally, the Christian wedding ends with blessings and greetings which are supposed to be a kind of basis of the future life of the couple. These blessings and greetings are supposed to bring happiness and strength to the unit of the couple.
