Love Marriage
Happy marriages begin when we marry the ones we love and they blossom when we love the ones we marry." Tom Mullen.
Have you ever tried defining the relationship between love and marriage? If yes, then you would have realized that both are synonymous to each other. Love is a dream and marriage is just an extension of this dream to reality. When both dream and reality comes together, it is the best thing that can happen to a person. Love is the subtle emotional wave within us, which is perennial in this world of death and passing away. The feeling of love is inexplicable - we start feeling good about things, which we earlier overlooked. The company of the person we love can make the most mundane chores seem like an exciting job. So, love can be best defined, as a feeling of bliss and ecstasy.

Parents, today, have a broader perspective and are fully aware of the nuances of caste system, thanks to education. They have understood that it is mutual understanding and feeling of love that matters most in marriage and not the caste and status of the bride/groom. Marrying the person you love is just like taking a step ahead in life and strengthening the already strong relationship, with commitment and efforts. However, love marriages are restrained to the city culture and are not a part of rural India, wherein arranged marriages are still viewed as the right thing.
Everything has two sides, similarly love marriage too has its own set of pros and cons. Talking about the positive aspects of love marriage, the best thing about it is that you marry the person, whom you love and whom you want to get married to, unlike what happens in arranged marriages. Love marriage gives an individual a time of knowing the person, whom he/she have decided to spend the entire life with. Also, you get an opportunity of being just what you are, as your partner would love you the way you are. As a couple, you are well-aware of your differences as well as your strengths, which makes it easier, to strengthen the bond of love after marriage.
A drawback of love marriage is inability to adjust with the family members. Mostly, love
