Dustin Nickerson Says This is When You Are Officially Married

Dustin Nickerson says this is when you are officially married. The popular comedian states that you will know your marriage has started when something like this finally happens. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear when, according to Dustin, two people are actually married.

A wedding ceremony is a beautiful thing.  Of course, it’s the lovely ritual in which two people stand at the altar, in front of their family and friends, and exchange vows. Both people promise to remain with the other regardless of what life may throw at them. The only thing that can or will separate them is death itself. The minister then pronounces them husband and wife and tells them to seal it with a kiss.

The wedding day is one that couples will remember for the rest of their lives. However, all that pomp and circumstance that comes with the wedding day is not real life. No one wears a tux or a wedding dress or throws the bouquet over their shoulder Monday through Friday. Sure, those activities may be fun, but as anyone who is married knows, a marriage is what happens after the wedding day.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Dustin said he and his wife were at a wedding, but they couldn’t help laughing to themselves because they know what a real marriage is, and how those people exchanging vows have no idea what married life is yet.

“That’s no, that’s not a marriage,” he said. “That’s not a marriage at all. That’s a wedding. Those are different things. A marriage is the next day when you get to the airport, and she goes, ‘I forgot my passport.’ Now you’re married. That’s, that’s a marriage right there. Today, till death do us part. Tomorrow, I’m going to Mexico alone. You had one job.”

I think anyone who is married will likely completely agree with Dustin’s statement and the point he’s making.

Genesis 2:24 “For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.”
