There is something very real and confronting about signing a legal document and making a public declaration in front of everyone you know and love... There are many people who suddenly realise how serious the decision is when they approach that altar, hence the amount of people who call it quits on or just before the wedding day. For me, if somebody can face that moment of truth and go through with it then I'll feel that they're more serious about the commitment than saying so in other ways. If you think its just a piece of paper have a look at the sweat pouring out of the groom at the next wedding you go to lol
