Anyone believing marriage has always
reflected forever love and dreams of a
bright future would be wrong. Images of
beautiful bridal couples gazing into each
others eyes actually reflect a relatively
recent phenomenon because emotional
attachment has formed the basis of the
coupling for only 100 to 150 years.
Historically, marriage legally contract-
ed two peopleand often their families
intereststo a lifetime commitment.
Wealthy families with property or title
often arranged alliances to maintain their
money for subsequent generationsthink
European royalty or Downton Abbey
nobility. In poorer communities, village
elders often arranged marriages.
Property rights, monogamy and mar-
riages to have children have changed over
the centuries. In America, the state has
played a greater role in marital contracts
since colonial times. Massachusetts first
required marriage licenses
for early settlers in 1639.
Across the United States,
they became common by the
19th century.
The 1960s Womens
Movement began defining
distinct spousal roles for a
more equalized union.
Couples divided the labor,
domestic obligations andfinancial responsibilities.
In modern society, most
people expect to be in love
when they marry. However,
as both men and women
seek their version of happi-
ness, glaring problems with
their logistics may not be
enough to discourage them.
With a 50 percent divorce
rate, couples must learn to
manage their expectationsby selecting a mate who
truly reflects common
ground.
Ironically, evolving
male/female roles over 50
years have often brought
greater demands and expec-
tations from the relation-
ships themselves. International best-sell-
ing author and matchmaker Hellen Chen
describes an entitlement mentality among
singles who drift in and out of relation-ships as they search for complete emo-

unions to computer dating.{ BY SHARON HARRIS-ZLOTNICK}

tional security from their partners.
Chen claims that children raised by
materially and emotionally overindulgent
parents may see themselves as the center
of attention, believing they deserve what-
ever they want. When spouses do not
pamper them in the same way, the harsh
reality is a rude awakening.
At a recent workshop, Chen urged
attendees to view marriage as an institu-
tion forged for two people in love whowant to create a family. Unfortunately, she
explained a troubling modern scenario
where additional criteria like money, sta-
tus, jobs and other components factor into
the mix. This ever-growing list of require-
ments can make men and women reluc-
tant to marry.
Finding an eligible, compatible partner
has become more difficult for numerous
reasons. These include financial stability,
peer pressure, changing demographics
and sexual orientation, disappearing stig-mas about single parenthood and other
relationship issues.
Television viewers are bombarded with
dating website advertisements for all
interests, ages, cultures and religions.
Professional matchmakers continue to
charge plenty, and in the last decade, tele-
vision schedules include more dating
shows.

tional avenues to finding love, these abun-
dant meeting tools have not halted a
global marriage decline. The most recent
U.S. Census Bureau statistics, which ana-lyzed all adult men and women, report
that 51 percent are currently married, an
all-time low for American marriage rates.
In Ohio, the Bowling Green State
University National Center for Marriage
and Family Research conducted a modern
marriage study. Researchers discovered
that the U.S. marriage rate is 31 marriages
per 1,000 unmarried women, down from
92.3 per 1,000 in 1920.
Although the number of married
women is historically low, singles contin-
ue in their search.
It may take longer, but later marriages
seem more successful. Some 90 percent of
adults over 45 have married, with more
couples staying together.
The definition of marriage is rapidly
changing throughout the U.S. The legal-
ization of same-sex marriage in multiple
states has created new opportunities with-
in the wedding industry. The IBISWorld
market-research firm states the $51 billion
industry employs nearly 800,000 people.
A 2013 analysis by the Pew Research
Center revealed that because of better
education, more focus on parenting and
easing opinions on single life, American
adults are pickier and will delay marriage
to find lasting love.
Getting To Know Each

ples exchange wedding vows every year.

those who qualify for an online certifica-
tion, perform secular civil ceremonies.
Few provide any pre-marital guidance.
Conversely, religious institutions usual-
ly require some form of counseling. Most
in the clergy want couples to be thorough-
ly acquainted. The Roman Catholic
Church is the most structured while other
denominations may have mixed rules,says Stiegler.
Stiegler, a former marketing profes-
sional, changed careers at 50. He esti-
mates he has married 150 couples over 15
years as a pastor.
Although the ceremony includes the
words what God has joined together, let
not man put asunder, God has little to do
with success. Enduring marriages must go
beyond lust, physical attractions and unre-
alistic expectations of love, says Stiegler.
As time permits, he expects to meet at

least once with a couple, about six months
before the wedding. Stiegler gives them
Premarriage Awareness Inventory (PAI)
packet of 100 relevant premarital ques-
tions. The survey evaluates a couples
responses and reactions to seven specific
issues, including family, money, children
and personal lifestyles.
Stiegler states, This multiple choicehomework covers the most volatile topics.
A guideline helps me score and analyze
their thoughts. There is an occasional
gross disjoint because couples often do
not discuss these issues, which creates a
basis for our conversation.
The PAI comes in three test categories
for specific marriage candidatesfirst-
time married couples who have not lived
together; cohabitating couples who may
not realize the changes that come with
marriage and couples where one or bothpartners were previously married.
Conversations in theComputer Age
Each generation confronts new distrac-
tions that challenge their relationships. As
many social niceties, expectations and tra-
ditions have eroded, so has the communi-
cation of developing and sustaining a
courtship and marriage.
Watch any old movie or talk to older
couples. They will talk of a time when
courtships were conducted by letter or
phone calls. The introduction of theInternet and its e-mail, texting and social
media functions has transformed how and
how well couples communicate.
Recent studies, published by the Pew
Research Center and Brigham Young
University (BYU), reveal eye-opening sta-
tistics. Pew reports on the large role of
technology among partnered Americans in
married or committed relationships88
percent use the Internet; 71 percent use
social networking sites and 93 percent
have a cell phone. These figures mirrorthe general population.

For eight years, Davids Bridal has
polled newly engaged and married women.
Its latest Whats on Brides Minds sur-
vey reports that prior to the proposal, 20
percent of the respondents are anticipating
their Internet identification by reserving
usernames with their potential married
surname. Another25 percent have seriously
considered the idea.
Most consider this technology positive,
but online communication can alsoincrease tensions and stifle conversations.
Data reports that up to 25 percent of cou-
ples text each other while at home togeth-
er and approximately 9 percent reconcile
an argument by texting.
The results of BYUs nationwide
polling of 276 young adults appeared in
the October 2013Journal of Couple andRelationship Therapy. It claimed constantconnections and over usage can lower a
relationships quality. Women may use
text messages to apologize, work out dif-
ferences or make decisions, while men
may text too frequently to avoid direct
conversation.
Societys communications have
entered a new age, says Vineland thera-pist and Advanced Practice Nurse Yvonne
Burgess. She has practiced in Cumberland
County since the 1990s and opened her
Vineland office earlier this month.
The Internet, via individual texting

communication and broader social media
like Facebook, has advantages. Social
media and texting benefit couples separat-
ed by distance or unable to communicate
throughout the day. It eliminates waiting
for information, says Burgess.
She also stresses the negatives when
used as a substitute instead of an enhance-
ment, especially in a disagreement. The
downside often involves intent. Burgess
claims that 90 percent of communication
is non-verbal because of face-to-face body
language. It is easy to misinterpret the con-
text of online conversation and voice
inflections. Social media also can be used
as a weapon against one partner.
Burgess states, Social media cannot beundone. A spouse or significant other who
seeks revenge by posting certain informa-
tion or resending a personal message can't
take it back. It also opens the person up to
scrutiny by current or potential employ-
ers, which can add an unfavorable dimen-
sion to the individuals life.
Anything that someone would not say
in person should not be conveyed en
masse without added context information.
I am not sure how many therapists would
recommend solving communication dif-
ferences through social media."
Texting can become problematic for
any generation. Burgess urges couples to
agree on their style and frequency of
online communication because the num-ber and content of texts may reflect larger
issues like insecurity or jealousy.
Couples must lay ground rules. Making
sensitive information more public may cre-
ate an uncomfortable scenario for both.
They must recognize how privacy may be
compromised if someone sees their phone
screen. Couples should be careful with
abbreviations and never send provocative
photos. Also, each language has its own
slang and innuendo, Burgess says.
Finding That Special Dressat Rienzi Bridal Salon
Very little matches the excitement of
shopping and selecting a wedding gown.
Since 1970, co-owner Josephine Stringari
has operated Rienzi Bridal Salon in
Vineland. She now co- owns the shop with
her daughterLeslie Stringari Ferrari.
Together, they personally attend to every
bride.
For 2014, Rienzi brides can now enjoythe shop's spacious expansion, completed
in mid-January. By acquiring the adjacent
store, Rienzi doubled its total square
footage to approximately 3,800 square
feet. The renovation has added dressing
rooms, increased the showroom floor and
created enough space to add new designer
lines and accessories.
Our brides may now stay longer and
shop at ease. We are open six days, with
evening hours on Thursday and Friday,
says Stringari Ferrari.
Stringari Ferrari claims that bridal
trends move more slowly than daytime
fashion. She says, Bridal fashion is not a
year-to year scenario. Trends, not seasons,
dictate their styling. Wedding gown styles
have a two-year cycle. Once famous

Rienzis Rich Historyin Vineland
Rienzi Bridal Salon co-owner
Josephine Stringari has always loved
to sew and design. As a young
woman, Stringari understood that a
girlfriend's suggestion of a job open-
ing would set her on a career path inthe bridal industry. She went to work
for the late Albert Zuccharini, the
shop's original owner. He had opened
in the late 1940s as a counterpart to
his Philadelphia bridal salon.
In May 1970, Stringari bought the
business and has since twice
enlarged the store. Her daughter
Leslie joined her as co-owner, learn-
ing the business by working alongside
her mother as a young girl. Several
other family members also became
part of the team through the years.
Stringari has witnessed an evolu-
tion in the bridal industry.Prospective brides used to come to
the shop with a bridal magazine and
an idea of what they wanted. Today's
brides are more informed.
Our brides have done some
research and come in with pictures
they have pulled off the Internet.
They still start with their budget, usu-
ally telling me they can spend 'no
more than' on their gowns. Some
also try to match their gowns with
their wedding reception venue,
Stringari says.
She is pleased with the more
diverse age group of customers, but
acknowledges that has its own sizing
and style challenges. Stringari claims
that some women may want a more
provocative or tighter dress to seem
more sophisticated.
Stringari states, When we dress a
bride, we strive to ensure that hergown reflects the quality of our
salon. For brides of all sizes, we can
fit a beautiful dress to their body
shapes that will avoid a look that is
too revealing."Sharon Harris-Zlotnick

designers introduce a trend, it then trick-
les down in price.
For example, after years of demand,
fewer than half the designers are showing
strapless gowns. Gowns with small shoul-
der caps, small sleeves or keyhole backs
with shoulder decoration have replaced
the strapless style.
Another changing trend is fabric. Satin
has lost popularity, and designers are
going for a softer, more romantic look
with lace throughout a fuller skirt.
Some unusual wedding styles, like
jumpsuit bridal wear, have emerged, but
Stringari Ferrari says that it has not suc-
ceeded in her shop. She believes these
designers may be more focused on a nicheBridal Guide

market like destination weddings rather
than a traditional ceremony.
As much as brides search for their
dream dress, the tougher economy has
forced brides to shop carefully, keeping
the price in mind. Rienzis top-tier full
line of gowns remain priced below $1,600.
For those on a very tight budget or
short on time, Stringari Ferrari advises
taking advantage of their sale/sample sec-
tion. She promises ample selection at
numerous price points.
What To Do With TattoosThe brides physical appearance has
also changed. Unlike past generations,
many of todays brides may have a visible
tattoo. A January 2012 online Harris Poll
of 2,016 adults found that at least 21 per-
cent of all U.S. adults have at least one tat-
tooalmost 50 percent more than in 2003.
Tattoos are often age and geographical-
ly driven. Westerners have the most; those
living in the East, Midwest and South

report the fewest. Adults between 30 and
39 have the highest number of tattoos.
The percentage of adults with tattoos
drops significantly after age 50.
Stringari Ferrari says her clientele is
evenly split as to whether or not to buy a
gown that reveals the tattoo. If they do,
brides must then decide whether or not to
cover it up.
Professional makeup artists can lessen
the colorations or make the tattoo invisi-
ble with minimal effort.Cosmetologist
Danielle Ruthig of TodaysTrendzin
Vineland says the process is similar to
applying regular makeup.
We wash the skin with a cleanser and
then apply a primer. We follow that with a
special hypoallergenic foundation, similar
to a concealer, that totally covers the tat-
too. It does not drip or run and dries
quickly. Our product lasts up to 10 hours
and washes off with regular soap and
water, says Ruthig.The size of the tattoo determines the
time needed for application. Ruthig says a
smaller tattoo may take 20 minutes and
makeup prices start at $35. She advises
that it be the last process of the day before
leaving the salon.
Cleaning and PreservingYour Bridal Gown
After the wedding, what happensto the
gown? Stringari Ferrari claims that although
she has offered a preservation process for
years, brides have rarely used her service.
AndyPaek,owner ofGarden State
Cleaners in Vineland, offers gown preser-
vationstarting at $125. Depending on its
condition, cleaning a gown maytake twoweeks.
Most brides maybe unaware of their
gowns condition. If the stains have not
caramelized and turned brown,our multi-
step process includes pre-spotting to
remove food, wine or dirt stains on the
dress or the train. Next, we use a gentle

Rings Ever RomanticAlthough some customs have
changed, rings remain in vogue. Fortheir ring choices, Dondero Diamondsand Fine Jewelry of Vineland has guid-ed couples since 1948.
Co-ownerKevin Kleinersays,"Preferences evolve over time, so cou-ples should never buy engagementrings or wedding bands based ontrends. I caution couples to think care-fully before making such a momen-tous purchase. The whole idea of ourstore is meeting our customers' needs
with appropriate choices."While traditional round and
princess diamond cuts remain themost popular, two others have madeinroads. The square cushion cut stonehas rounded edges. A radiant cut iseither a square or rectangular stonewithout pointed corners, giving thediamond a flattened corner edgeappearance.
Wedding bands are typically a jointdecision, but Kleiner says thatprospective grooms usually buy an
engagement ring alone since the deci-sion is so personal. However, just incase the chosen ring is not quite right,a Dondero's purchase includes a gen-erous return policy.
Kleiner states, "A man has a greatopportunity. He can surprise a womanwhile creating beautiful memories
about one of the most important occa-sions of their lives."
Today's couples find it difficult tomatch their wedding bands so theladies typically match their engage-ment ring with a band. They eithercustomize the ring or choose a setmade together.
"White gold is still on top, but thereis a subtle trend towards gold androse gold for bands. Colored dia-monds, like chocolate with white or
black with white, have become popularaccent stones," Kleiner says.For years, men have gravitated to
less expensive alternative metals liketitanium, but many are now onceagain buying gold wedding bands.Kleiner believes that although gold iscostlier, the prices have stabilizedenough to make men more comfort-able. He says men have shifted theirpriorities and prefer to spend theirmoney on a gold band over a one-timewedding expense.
