Here goes my take on Arranged v/s Love marriages.
Arranged marriage query :-
SELECT *
FROM
list_of_eligible_bachelors
WHERE
age > :bride_age -- the bride's age should always be less than the bridegroom
AND bank_balance > :an_exorbitant_amount
AND own_a_house_flag = 'Y'
AND own_a_car_flag = 'Y'
AND exists (SELECT 1 FROM best_horoscopes
WHERE bachelor_id = list_of_eligible_bachelors.bachelor_id)
AND salary > :bride_salary
-- Very important clause, cannot do away with this condition
AND religion = :religion_of_bride
AND caste = :caste_of_bride
AND sub_caste = :subcaste_of_bride
AND ........................ -- Conditions to be added in the subsequent releases
Love marriage query :-
SELECT *
FROM
list_of_eligible_men
WHERE
good_qualities = 'Y'
AND match_tastes = 'Y'
AND ROWNUM < 2
