| Tóm tắt: | Throughout much of the West today, marriage formation requires the execution
of a written marriage contract – usually a marriage certificate that is signed by
the couple and their witnesses and registered with a government official. These
publicly registered marriage contracts can be anticipated by private engagement
andprenuptial contracts respecting the parties’ property, custodial, and other rights
before, during, and after themarriage.Marriage contractsmay also be accompanied
by public notices and invitations; elaborate liturgies or ceremonies; ritual exchanges
of promises, rings, and other property; and lavish parties and lush honeymoons.
But none of this is essential to the validity of the marriage today: the properly
signed marriage certificate is enough to make a marriage. |
