Not that I think either of those are valid reasons to get married, but it seems to make more sense to people here than the usual reason--that you get married because you love someone and you want to.

You know it's interesting. I have been dating the boyfriend for three years and half the time I get "so you are engaged?" The other half is "don't get to serious!" The pattern has been that the people who are wanting a wedding are not from here (the West Coast) while the waiting people are from the area.
