Marriage ceremonies are almost always public, very much so. One of the purposes of having a ceremony is to let it be known far and wide (or at least within the local community) that "These two are now married - hands off, all you other would-be suitors." It's also a good excuse for a big party afterwards. And having the vows be public means the couple will be publicly shamed if they break those vows.
There is usually some sort of "binding" ritual - sacred vows, exchange of rings, tying the hands of the couple together with string in a ritual cats-cradle, having both drink from the same glass (which is then shattered so no other may drink from it), wrapping an oversized cloak around both of them simultaneously...
The proceedings are usually presided over by the local priest, showing that the gods approve of the union. Often the ceremony will also be attended (or presided over, or co-conducted by) the local Mayor/Baron/Big Chief, to show that the secular authorities also approve of the marriage. (This is especially likely if the marriage has political implications - alliance of two powerful families, marrying into the nobility, cross-racial marriage, etc.)
"Till death do us part" - but what about Raise Dead/Resurrection? Can an adventurer annul a marriage (voluntarily or not!) by dying and being brought back?
