I've never understood why people who love each other actually need a marriage, or at least any kind of lavish one with guests.

Marriage = commitment. It's an important component in lasting relationships, generally speaking. There are exceptions, of course, but they are outliers.

No marriage = social statement and bling bling. Get with the times.
