get married
Exchange vows together
Get married is to enter into marriage—to become someone's spouse through a wedding ceremony or legal process.
The phrase emphasizes the transition into married status: They're getting married in June, We got married at city hall.
Unlike simply "marry," which can take a direct object (She married him), get married typically stands alone or uses "to": He got married to his college sweetheart.
