When I was young I used to think that if your parents yelled the word "Divorce" at each other at the same time, that they were divorced. I remember freaking out one night at dinner when my parents were talking about a friends' divorce and praying to God they wouldn't say the word divorce at the same time!
My aunt got married when she was fresh out
of High School. She got married to a guy one year younger than her and I thought if you married someone older than you that the older person would be be the one who payed the bills, cleaned the house, and do every thing.
My father married my step-mother when I was 9 years old and I got a day off school to attend the wedding. When I went back to school and told all my friends about the wedding I thought it was really mean that everyone else's parents didn't invite them to thier weddings. It didn't occur to me that other people's parents were married before the children were born. I just thought I was lucky cause my parents let me go to the rockin' party they had after the wedding.

I used to think that when a couple got married and went on their honeymoon, they took a vacation to the moon.
when i was five i thought i would just marry my brother, that it would be the simpilist and best thing; i wouldn't have to change my name, and i already knew his family. i was devestated when someone else told me (in disgust) that he was my "BROTHER and i COULDN'T marry my BROTHER!"
When I was about six or seven, I was watching Disney's Cinderella. In the end, you saw Cinderella and the prince riding off in their carrige smooching away. When I asked mom where they were going, my mom said that they were going on their honey moon. This confused me. Why would they go to the moon? I assumed that a honey moon meant that the newly-wed couple were going to get blasted off to the moon. I also thought that the moon was made of honey. I couldn't wait till I got married because I always wanted to go to the moon!
I used to believe that when a man and woman got married, the woman not only changed her last name but her FIRST name also. So I always used to ask my mom what her name used to be. She'd say her maiden name..then I'd say "no, no, your First name! What did it used to be?"
Once while in the car with my parents we passed a car with the woman passenger sitting real close to the male driver. My dad said that meant they were on thier honey-moon. For years (and I mean YEARS) afterward I always believed that if a man and woman were sitting right next to each other in the car that they WERE on thier honey-moon. Like it was a honey-moon rule to sit like that. It was only until very lately that I realized my father was actually being sarcastic.

I used to believe that in order to get married couples had to have the same hair color because both my grandparents had grey hair.

When I was little I always used to pass by this store that said Welding supplies--I miss read it as Wedding supplies--For many years I was horrified and the thought of getting married and having a wedding fearing that I would have to buy saws, blowtorches and other heavy machinery just to get married.

for some reason i made an association between hot air balloon and honey moon.
so till i was at leat 10, i believed everyone going on their honey moon was going floating off in a hotairballoon.

I used to believe that what they called the people getting married were "the bride and broom". I only realized when I was 9 and going to be a jr bridesmaid that the proper term was the "bride and groom".

I used to believe that when you got married you had to choose whether you wanted to be cremated or buried when you died. i used to feel sad that such a happy occassion should be marred by having to think about death. i also worried that i was running out of time to make my decision. (i was about 5 at the time)
I once tred on my fathers wedding ring and was caought by my aunt who then said that I would now never get married becasue of it.
I think my mother had asked me when I was four who I wanted to marry when I grew up. I said, " I don't know any boys, so I guess I'll just marry Jaime (my brother)." She laughed and said I had too much in common with my brother to marry him. I was mad. I thought I had every right to marry my brother.
I used to Believe that your found your girlfriend/boyfriend in school or at least in your school years, you stuck with them all you life got married etc... and if you didn't get one in your school years, you were screwed...
This is actually the belief of my precious little ring bearer.
He was watching a cartoon with his mom in which the little boy got to be the ring bearer. He turns to his mom and quickly replies "LOOK MOM! That's what I get to be and go ROAR!"
Cute little thing thinks he's going to be the ring "BEAR".
I used to believe that you went to this Indian ceremony and you would dance until you danced with your soul mat and when you did you heard a christmas song.
I used to believe that the second a man or woman took off their wedding ring, they were officially not married anymore. :P
