Is there something wrong if a woman just wants the wedding and not the marriage? If you look at it you’ll see that for years it was believed a woman must go to school, get a job, get married, and then have kids. However, times have changed and some women just want to experience the big wedding day and not necessarily the marriage.
Relationship dynamics in 2021 is vastly different to what it was 50 years ago.
Women are playing a larger role in the workforce than ever before, technology has flipped modern dating on its head, and we’re living a lot more for the here and now.

The Best T In the City with Tbose asked Kaya 959 listeners if there’s anything wrong if a woman just wants the wedding and not the marriage?
Listen to the full conversation here:
Many make the decision to opt merely for a weeding and not the wedding cause they know how it all ends. The truth is people grow apart, they grow comfortable, and they get bored. It’s just how humans work.
Statistics indicate that approximately one third of all marriages end in divorce. If anything, we should be congratulated for recognising the warning signs and preventing future upheaval.

@tboseZA I want the whole wedding experience, I have everything worked out in my head and the playlist has already been drafted, the only thing missing is the man who’s as crazy as me to pull it off. #SheWantsTheWeddingNotMarriage

But I’ve been saying I’ll wear the dress walk half way down the aisle, so that everyone sees me, then turn run away and go on the honeymoon alone. Even my friends know… #SheWantsAWeddingNotMarriage pic.twitter.com/kngq8gSDmg
