Is this true all the time? Or at least most of the time?
What about people who have lavish affairs? Are they unhappy then?

Not necessarily true. Marriage can't be predicted by how someones wedding event was.
Although, I personally prefer small, simple weddings.
Re: The Happiest of Couples Usually Had The Humblest Beginnings...
by humble beginnings i take it to mean that they didnt have much money to begin with. I think I can understand how that would create a stronger marriage, cos if they are now in a better position financially, they had been each other's support during the hard times and had seen all of that through together.
Re: The Happiest of Couples Usually Had The Humblest Beginnings...
I would disagree . You can not really predict anything. True faces of people only appear after you start living with them. The only thing that can make the marriage last is the willingness to make marriage going and rest will automatically follow.

I also don't think the size of the wedding matters. The happiest married couple I know also had the nicest wedding I've ever been to (some people just have it all. lol!) and I knew at least two or three couples who had small/not extravagent weddings that ended up divorced. I think it all comes down to the understanding between the couple and nothing else.

If that was true then all the kings and queens , leaders , business people would be divorcees. No ?

Not true. You're either a happy person or you are not. How much or how little money you have will not affect it.
It is not how much money you have that makes you happy....it is the company you have. If you are surrounded by great people....you will be happy even living in a slum.
Take it from me, I have the money (according to my husband and many others) but still have yet to experience what "happiness" really is....
Re: The Happiest of Couples Usually Had The Humblest Beginnings...
money doesnt buy happiness....cliche but true!
how lavish ur wedding is doesnt automatically mean ur going to be unhappy...thats ridiculous!!
Re: The Happiest of Couples Usually Had The Humblest Beginnings...
I can understand the theory behind it. If you take away the materialistic things in a relationship, effectively all you're left with is eachother. The thought that he supports her and she supports him, not financially but emotionally is definitely something that brings two people together more than any exchanging of gifts or presents ever could. However, I can also see how a shortage of money could bring tension, frustration and problems into the family home.
In any relationship, if worldy goods become more than the relationship itself then there are bound to be problems. The people involved should just be intelligent enough to understand what's more important.
