"I believe that a wedding is successful when the couple appears happy, relaxed, and full of love. The most important part of any wedding, in my opinion, is the couple, so as long as they have truly enjoyed themselves and feel pure happiness, then I consider the event a success. Even if every logistical component to a wedding is flawless, I would still consider it a less successful event if the couple didn't appear to have enjoyed themselves."
