Marriage is a social union or legal contract between individuals. It is an institution in which interpersonal relationships, usually intimate and sexual, are acknowledged by a variety of ways, depending on the culture or demographic. Such a union may also be called matrimony.
I believe the term is the "sacrament of marriage". It means that a marriage ceremony is performed; that it is performed before religious authorities; and that the marriage ceremony is considered something sacred.
