People raise voice with #MakeMarriageEasy on social media
Dowry, extravagant receptions, Dholki and Mayun, lavish banquets, top class photographers and expensive bridal dresses— above all, marriage in our society starts with an additional event of bridal showers. These are the adopted customs— a more influenced Indian culture of weddings, that has taken our society to a place where the poor and mediocre status of people has to experience not only a financial jerk but psychologically, they are more trapped hoping for as many as they could do.
Wedding ceremonies can be simple and subtle. It’s a disgrace when it comes to our wedding institution and traditions related to it. These wedding practices have stripped away the real essence of marriage. Instead of helping to create a steady foundation of a happy relationship throughout our marriage, we waste our money and time to attain weak standards of weddings.
A wedding in our society is a multi-day event that includes decorations, performances, gatherings, food, traditional ceremonies and a lot of other festivities. Hours of work and hefty sums are spent to arrange an attractive wedding, but there is barely any attention paid to the marriage itself.
Sadly, this is wild concept of making marriages costly and lavish has put weddings out of reach for people having limited means and adds greater burden on parents, bride and even groom. Looking into the useless practices in wedding, and to end the wasteful customs people took to social media to raise their collective voice on #MakeMarriageEasy.
Nothing is more mesmerising than simple Nikkah and Rukhsaati; stop copying Indian Rituals and making marriages complexed, do it the way Islam guides us. Indeed, beauty lies in Simplicity.❤#MakeMarriageEasy 🙏

'joote lo, pese do" custom. I'm sorry but that is straight up harrassment, especially when you know the groom is struggling to cover the wedding expenses already. Can we all please be a little more mature and not put unnecessary financial pressure on people#MakeMarriageEasy

Marriages have become very difficult these days, for struggling people there already are so many battles, but getting married becomes another struggle for them.#MakeMarriageEasy

Say no to Dowry, say no to big Wedding functions, say no to Mehndis. Make marriages easy for Parents. Stop spending half of your Parents savings for stupid functions where people come, eat and say crappy things and judge you for food they eat free of cost.#MakeMarriageEasy

Luxurious weddings don't show how successful your marriage life is going to be. Many people marry in a simple way and believe me, it's so beautiful. You can save money for future. A simple wedding would be easy to afford by both sides.

Due to outdated customs, wrong interpretations of Islam, and the socio-economic setup in Pakistan, marriages are looked at as a burden, regardless of the gender concerned. pic.twitter.com/H19hHr6izW— 🌌 Moona (@HiTweeties) January 4, 2019
If you don't marry at the right time, you'll eventually walk towards bad deeds. #MakeMarriageEasy

Huge amount of money spent on the wedding just to show off could well be used for the couple itself. #MakeMarriageEasy

Dowry is a curse in our society it makes the marriage burden on girl's family.#MakeMarriageEasy

Why it has become necessary to spend so much money on marriages when you can just simply do nikkah? Believe me the lesser you'll spend on your wedding the more blessings you'll receive.#MakeMarriageEasy 🙏
