English term or phrase: aisle, altar, hymn (I'll alter him)
"This fantasy is captured in the old joke that asks what three things the bride thinks of as she walks down the aisle in church on her wedding day. The answer: Aisle, altar, hymn (“I’ll alter him”). Therefore, each of us sometimes sends out the message “You should accept me as I am, but you should change to accommodate my needs.” " A. Christensen 'Reconcilable differences"

Ciężko mi coś wymyslić, żeby oddać sens tego żartu, może ktoś ma jakiś pomysł, co z tym właściwie zrobić. Angielska gra słow brzmi prawie identycznie, mysle ze po polsku mogloby być cos zblizonego np, słowo "nawy" mozna by bylo wykorzystać jako "nowy' (np .w znaczeniu że "będzie jak nowy")...
