HAPPILY EVER AFTER

Over the past few decades, many things have changed. Be it the era of Charlie Chaplin or the age of vintage cars. Be it the Queen addressing her Christmas speeches to her subjects over a static-riddled radio frequency or the age of writing letters. This, and everything else, has changed radically. And marriage, a sacred bond between two individuals, is not lagging. According to a study by the Pew Research Center in 2017, in 1960, the median age for first marriage was 23 for men and 20 for women. Today, it has edged over to the other side. Although starting a new life together means different things to different individuals, the essence of it all remains the same. Read on to know how marriage has changed over time, and what it means to couples today.
