Today we live in a generation where both women and men need to have a certain education qualification before getting married. One reason is they are both well secured in the tough job market, providing financial security to their home. Also, basic education helps in everyday key conversation, and planning required to make the marriage work. Some may also say that being educated and knowing fluent English is a class symbol for society.

The bride is well educated and finishing her degree in B.Ed. whereas the groom doesn’t know how to read or write. The bride asks if someone can be ever happy knowing that her husband cannot speak English.
