OK. So what?
Because there are some who seem to not want to separate private marriage from legal marriage.
Legal marriage is just about a document proving two people are married. Private marriage can be any damn thing anyone wants, a man and a woman, two men, two women, 1 man and multiple women, 1 woman and multiple men, multiple men and multiple women, of any combination of races and/or religions. The only thing that limits private marriages is if their is someone who is trying to claim a legal marriage that is not recognized as one or if someone tries to do something illegal (violate some consent law) and claim marriage as an excuse.
