Should marriage be a lifelong commitment?
These days wedding has become lavish affair as young couples elect to celebrate the beginning of their life together in grand style. They hire limousine and organize the lavish wedding banquets.But as a sign that romance is giving way in the face of harsher reality, a new phenomenon is creeping into morden weddings, the prenuptial agreement by which couples put down and write in how their property will be divided in the end of the divorce. So my question is should marriage be a lifelong commitment?

Yes I agree that marriage should be a life long commitment, it's there to provide love and security to you and later on your children. Otherwise, don't get married. The pre-nup contract is there for the protection of the man and woman, especially if one is far richer than the other..

Nice paragraph! Just a couple of corrections but I understood everything you said - these are only minor corrections-
- These days, weddingS have become lavish affairS, as young couples... (there is more than one couple = more than one wedding - everything must be plural!)
- They hire limousineS and organise lavish wedding banquets... (still plurals!)
- ...romance is giving way (to what?!... I understand what you mean - another way of saying this would be "romance is losing ground/importance..." Maybe "as they face a harsher reality..."?
- in the face of A harsher reality (one reality - you need an article!)
- MODERN weddings (check the spelling :))
- the prenuptial agreement, where couples can state/write down/put down (more informal) how their property will be divided IN THE EVENT of divorce.
My answer - yes I think that marriage should be a lifelong commitment, which might be why I am still scared of getting married! I think prenuptials are a good "get-out clause" (its a safety net so you can leave the marriage) but leaving the marriage should not be a concern if you are just starting out together. If you are clinging to the promise that you can get divorced if it all goes wrong - why get married?! It doesn't make any sense to me!

Not a doubt, yes! "Till death do us part" is still the vow in today's marriage.
