Love marriage

[
Cupid inscribed RIP.]

A love marriage is a union of two parties based upon affection and a mutual attraction between the individuals. The term opposite to "arranged marriage" and "forced marriage" especially in India and the countries near it.

In India, love marriages are sometimes called "self-arranged marriages" perhaps to avoid some of the negative opinions that are still held against young people choosing their own partners [Kakar, S., [http://indiatoday.digitaltoday.in/match-fixing-4.html Match fixing] , "India Today", 26 October 2007.
