ceremonial marriage

Read a random definition: fiduciary heir

A quick definition of ceremonial marriage:

Ceremonial marriage is when two people legally agree to be husband and wife. They must be legally able to get married, agree to get married, and follow the rules for getting married. This type of marriage has important legal consequences, like how they share their property and money. It is different from other types of marriages, like common-law marriage, where they don't have a ceremony but still act like they are married.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A legal union between two individuals as husband and wife that follows all the statutory requirements and is solemnized before a religious or civil official. The essentials of a valid marriage are parties legally capable of contracting to marry, mutual consent or agreement, and an actual contracting in the form prescribed by law. Marriage has important consequences in many areas of the law, such as torts, criminal law, evidence, debtor–creditor relations, property, and contracts.

Example: John and Jane had a ceremonial marriage in a church with a priest officiating. They both met the legal requirements for marriage and gave their mutual consent to be married. Their marriage is legally recognized and has important consequences in various areas of the law.

Explanation: The example illustrates a ceremonial marriage that follows all the legal requirements and is solemnized before a religious official. The couple gave their mutual consent to be married, and their marriage is legally recognized. The example also mentions the important consequences of marriage in various areas of the law.
