But, "marriage, the act itself" (which could have more than one interpretation) is not mentioned in the passage you highlight. Only a wedding is mentioned. To my tortuous mind "wedding" is not exactly the same as "marriage, the act itself". In any case, the act of wedding/marrying the couple is not mentioned, only referred to. The wedding feast is what is spoken about.
