It's because they are caught in a dream when they walk down the aisle, their faces glowing with expectation.

Then when you get them home and they find out what you're really like the lines of anger start to appear.

Because living with a man who can't deliver will do that to you.

This is pertinent perhaps...The Talmud records a debate between the houses of Hillel and Shammai concerning the words celebrants should sing when dancing in front of a newly married woman [as part of the wedding festivities]. According to the House of Hillel, the dancers should chant the same words in front of all brides: “What a beautiful and graceful bride!” Their opponents, the House of Shammai, disagree. “If she is lame or blind, are you going to say of her, ‘What a beautiful and graceful bride?’ Does not the Torah command, ‘Stay far away from falsehood’ (Exodus 23:7)?” They thus oppose reciting a standard formula; rather, each bride should be described “as she is” (see Babylonian Talmud, Ketubot 17a).

Hillel’s position is accepted as Jewish law. One praises the beauty of all brides and, in any case, the bride is likely to appear beautiful in the eyes of her groom.

Speaking only for my own wedding I think you have hit the nail on the head, but I'm not sure the principle can extend to all cases.

Go on, I'll guess. That Chichester chappie.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

so in a way all brides and grooms are beautiful and handsome
