love-match
Wedding for affection
A love-match is a marriage based on mutual affection rather than practical considerations like wealth, social status, or family arrangement.
The term often appears in historical contexts where such marriages were unusual: Their union was a love-match, not a strategic alliance between families.
It can also describe any romantic pairing driven by genuine attraction rather than convenience.
