Best Answer

Weddings represent celebration of life, of the joy of living, of eternal hope, of ushering in new life; while funerals imply death and dying, negation or passing away of life. Clearly, after wedding invitations have been prepared, attending a funeral creates a mood of depression and despair, which could dampen the enthusiasm of proceeding with wedding protocols. In fact, if the funeral is that of a very close relative of the family, then, as a mark of respect to the departed soul, weddings often get postponed to a later date.
