Description
Inspired by the song “Face To Face” by TelecastThere will be a day
When all will fade away
And all that will remain
Is loving You face to face.
Jesus I pray
That You would come today
And faith would be replaced
With loving You face to face.
The bride of Christ is promised that when this life is over we will be forever in His presence, loving Him face to face.
Acrylic on birch wood. The image I used for reference: www.corbisimages.com/stock-pho…

I guess you could say that Christ did not have a bride while He was on Earth because He was not married to a woman (in the traditional sense). He remained single and only did the mission He came here to do.
However, the Bible talks in many places symbolically of believer's in Jesus as the Bride of Christ. To put it simply, believers are symbolically like a bride being prepared for the wedding, which will happen when we are united with Christ in heaven.
Here are some scriptures that support this:
Ephesians Chapter 5 says:
"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;"
and later it says:
"For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. "
Matthew Chapter 25 says:
"Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh."
2 Corinthians Chapter 11 says:
"Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ."
Hopefully that explains where I'm coming from.

well, it is reffered to a bride in heaven. so its only feelings of truthful wife and husband, not the ceremonies, and earthly attittudes. get it.

There will be ceremony, in heaven. The Bible speaks of the marriage supper of the Lamb. That has to do with Jewish ceremony.
