I checked my dictionary for "marriage":
  1  the legal union of a man and a woman in order to live together
  2  an act or ceremony establishing this union.

So, {tlhogh} "marriage" can be both, the "being-together" oder the "getting-together".

If it is the ongoing thing, then the ceremony itself might be called {tlhoghtay}.
On the other hand, when I look at tkd's list, the words for "marriage" and "marry" came together.
And where do people {nay} and {Saw}? On her {tlhogh}.

I'm not sure about this yet. btw, is {tlhoghtay} an official word??

Quvar.
