Marriage is the process by which two women commit to spending their lives together. It is a legally-binding contract involving both spouses and the Sapphorian State. There may or may not be a religious angle to it, depending on the religious beliefs of the partners. Approximately 35% of Sapphorians are married in church, 50% in a registry office and the remaining 15% in other locations. The government and society's focus on family values means that marriage is considered sacrosanct. Divorce rates are low and adultery is very harshly punished.

Monogamy is a concept confined almost exclusively to the married in Sapphory. Because it is normal for unmarried Sapphorian girls to be polyamorous, it is correspondingly expected that once a woman settles down, that is it.
