Wedding after the age of 30 and more civil rites
Legnano – Once upon a time the fateful day of “yes” was awaited, it was prepared with care, down to the smallest details. Today, the great attachment to traditions has given way to practicality and so even the preferences related to weddings have profoundly changed. A first piece of data given to us by Istat is the age at which one gets married: you don’t get married very young anymore, we postpone, we wait for the achievement of economic stability which increasingly often arrives largely after reaching the age of 30. On the day she gets married she has somewhat lost her charm, while still making the wedding ritual endure, even if she gets married later.
In Legnano, civil rites have surpassed religious ones, as highlighted by the latest Istat report – which also highlighted the increase in the population of Legnano grew again by 326 new residents-and which, after a first historic overtaking in 2018, in 2023 151 marriages were celebrated, 103 with a civil ceremony. Another fact that has profoundly changed the habits and customs related to weddings is the domestic partnershipeven in the city we notice how the great majority of these couples who arrived at marriage had already been living together for a few years, a fact which however is not surprising if we return to shed light on the fact that marriages between very young people are increasingly fewer and that the conquest of “economic stability” or in any case of a well-paid job that allows you to build a family has now become a mirage.
In any case, in Legnano we still get to the “yes” day…but 70% of couples choose the separation of assets regime and “they lived happily ever after.”
