The table illustrates changes in marriage trends in Australia between 1960 and 2000, focusing on the number of religious and civil marriages as well as the average age of brides and bridegrooms.
Overall, the number of civil marriages increased significantly over the period, while religious marriages fluctuated. Additionally, the average age at marriage rose steadily for both genders.
In 1960, religious marriages (25,000) were more common than civil marriages (8,000). By 2000, civil marriages had surpassed religious ones (40,000 compared to 34,000). The highest number of religious marriages occurred in 1980 (50,000), but this figure dropped in later years.
The average age of brides and bridegrooms also showed a clear upward trend. In 1960, brides were typically 21 years old, and bridegrooms were 24. By 2000, these averages had risen to 30 and 32, respectively, indicating that people were marrying later in life.
