I don't like this whole kneeling thing. Not when it's a man and not when it's a woman. The only one you kneel for is God. Only with T.B. Joshua in one case I thought it was good, because that woman had been demon posessed and beat him up. She had to kneel when she told him she was sorry. He even forgave her lol. The video was called marriage from hell, my wife beats me up. His business got ruined. Poor guy.

This is apparently not a familiar part of any wedding ceremony or reaffirmation of vows as used in any Christian church.
I had to do a search for a very long time before finding even one reference to this move by the bride, and it turns out that this is a Nigerian custom.
It certainly is not incorporated into the ceremony because of "Christian theology."

I got married in the Catholic church and my husband and I knelt most of the time before the altar to show respect for God.
