'''Marriage''' is a formalised social, religious, spiritual, emotional and/or legal union between two people (as in monogamy) or many people (as in polygamy).  It has been practiced as such by just about every culture across geographical locations and time.<ref> "Because there is a natural complementarity between men and women - sexual, emotional, temperamental, spiritual - marriage allows for a wholeness and a completeness that cannot be won in any other way.

Marriage is a life-long commitment, and typically this involves a public ceremony (a [[wedding]]) where vows are exchanged to each other and before God.
