My personal view on marriage is that it's very holy and should not by any means be taken lightly.
I have a friend who is getting married in a couple of years, she has already booked the best Church, the best hall for her reception, has got to have the best dress, the best cake etc. This slightly worries me. It's not about having the best. It's about having you and your partner make a lifelong commitment. Be it in a shed or in St. Marks Cathedral, you have made the same vow and have stood before the same God.
When I get married, while I want it to be a special day, I don't want to have to have the best of anything, I want it to be simple. I want to stand before God and tell him/her that I intend to stay with this person for the rest of my life and will try with every bit of me to achieve that, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health. At that time you also ask God into the situation and ask for his help to do this.
That's what marriage means to me, and I don't believe it should be taken lightly.
