Who is this, My Wife, the man seem to be saying?

On turning the man beholds his bride, Zack could not recognize Jessica on her wedding out feet and this sent some tears and bewilderment from his eyes. Thanks to Tezza.

I was at a wedding ceremony recently, January, 2018 to be precise. Unfortunately it did not occur to me at first that it was going to happen but it all happened suddenly and ended abruptly. The Groom just bust into tears and he was assisted by some friends and well wishers. The ceremony became so emotional that I became curious where I was sitting as an invited guest. At last I could not hold back the tears without knowing why I was doing so.

It was at this juncture that I discovered that tears are very very infectious. Tears could draw tears from the eyes of a hardened and tough man. Have you experienced this before or have you seen someone who did before. In case you have not, here are a few examples you may have come across but did not think deep at that time. Before this, let us take a look at the definition of weddings.

Weddings

We all know what weddings are all about, Perhaps from our lay man’s definition, we see weddings as a fulfillment of our religious injunction of increase and multiply, a license, after obtaining it gives us full right to possess our possessions, a certificate that makes us husbands and wives while Chrisanne Grise defines weddings as:

“Weddings are one of those rare occasions when tears usually translate to happiness. These beautiful shots capture just how emotional the big day is for everyone involved, so grab your tissues!”, she concluded:

At long last a four year courtship transformed into a memorable wedding ceremony. This is enough to melt the strongest man, so tears flowed freely from the Ghanaian born's eyes as he sees his bride being accompanied to the altar by her mum.

Why should a man weep on his wedding Day, which is supposed to be happy moment of his life and that of his family. These may be responsible.

  1. Freshness and beauty attributed to a wedding ceremony could melt the strong person in a man and bring out hot tears of joy from him.

  2. Handwritten letters are a sweet way to connect without seeing one another before wedding ceremony begins by Dianne Personett Photos, so the memory of those letters could also bring out hot tears from a man.

  3. Stunning look of a Bride could move the man to emotions – tears of joy.

  4. The look of joy on a mother’s face could trigger some emotions as recorded by Laura Zastrow Photos

  5. A couple’s first dance is always an emotional experience, so there is the tendency that tears of joy could flow in gratitude to God.

  6. It could be in thanks and appreciation to God for a fulfilled life, at long last.

  7. Some relationships last for a long time three to four years before they finally come together as husbands and wives.  When this happens, the man could burst into tears at seeing his beautifully dressed bride approaching the centre aisle.
    

Conclusion

Honestly, it sounds funny when a man is seen weeping. You know why, because men had always claimed to be the stronger sex, while women are regarded as the weaker sex. Sometimes, men do weep during weddings when either of their parents or both are late before their weddings, they always wish there parents were present to witness or join the their happy moments.

Ugly experience could also make a man weep during his wedding ceremony, especially if he had had a nasty experience in the past where his first bride had died in a ghastly auto crash on her way to the church on their wedding. More especially if the lady in question had been his heartthrob. This kind of experience or sense of loss could make a man recall and weep on his wedding day. It could be that he is grateful to God that at long last his dreams had been fulfilled in another woman, his prayer to settle down had finally been answered.

So many things could be responsible and they are usually emotionally attached incidents. It cut across races, colours, tribes, religion, name it. Sometimes it becomes "a matter of can't help."
