Marriage in Saudi Arabia....

The wedding life is loving and sharing the life between two people to build a happy family. I think, the successful life should have harmony and agreement between all parties to continue their life together. In addition, in each country or culture, there are common ways to get married that people inherited along time ago from their ancestors. However, it has changed across the time. In some countries, a girl may have a boy friend before getting married and they may continue in this relationship or may not. On the other hand, most of Saudi citizen get married by the traditional way that has changed slightly from the past. There are some steps before getting married. First, the families will get to know each other to ask about wedding. If the families have agreement, the guy and the girl can see each other. In case, the couple liked each other, they will get engaged. In this period before the wedding party, they can talk and see each other so that they could understand each other. In the event that they didn't get acceptance from one party, they will break up this relationship and each one will continue seeking about appropriate husband or wife. In contrast, if they liked each other and felt comfortable, they will get married. Also, they will start organize their plans in the future together. Some time, one girl accepts the first man who propose her while, another girl might not accept many men who propose to her until she meet the suitable person who will become her husband for the rest of her life. Also, I want to mention that, culture in Saudi Arabia is totally different than other cultures, however, we have some people who get married by dating but this is unusual way and illegal in Islamic religion. In addition those people represent small percentage of Saudi citizen.
