Baha'u'llah talked about marriage as being compared to the wings of a bird. Man being one wing and the woman the other wing of the bird. If one wing of the bird was weak, the bird couldn’t fly. Marriage is the same way, for a marriage to be truly successful both parties must be equal.

There are also several rules or principles leading to the marriage that should be upheld:

Age
Since Baha’is are have reached the age of maturity and have the opportunity to declare their faith at the age of 15, this has been assigned the minimum age for marriage. This is a good starting point since in some countries marriage can be as early as 8 years of age.

Permission
It is required that permission of both parties and the birth parents be consented to. One spouse cannot be married against their will, this is sometimes common is Islam and other cultures.

Plurality
Baha’i Faith originated in Persia where plural marriages were the accepted way of life. Baha’u’llah forbids more spouse than one spouse for believers.

Engagement
The period of engagement, should not exceed 95 days. You are not allowed to become engaged before the age of 15. The period of engagement is set so temptation will not get the best of the couple.

Dowery
There are actually guidelines set on doweries, which are still paid in some cultures and countries.

Marrying Kindred
Several guidelines have been put down. This I believe these are due to the practices of marriage in different cultures. Such as stepmothers, stepbrothers, stepsisters, cousins, etc.

Marrying non-believers is permitted.

If all the rules are met, Baha’is ask the Local Spiritual Assembly for guidance in planning their wedding. In most states, all that is needed for two people to marry, is two witnesses and a marriage license for your marriage to be legal. You don’t have to have a minister or priest officiate at the ceremony. Usually Baha’is will ask Local Spiritual Assembly members to be their witnesses. Ceremonies can be as simple or as fancy as the couple and their families desire.

The only other requirement is that each of the couple recite the following verse:

"We will all, verily, abide by the Will of God."
Compilations, Baha'i Prayers, p. 103

Finally I leave you with this prayer about marriage:

"He is God!
O peerless Lord! In Thine almighty wisdom Thou hast enjoined marriage upon the peoples, that the generations of men may succeed one another in this contingent world, and that ever, so long as the world shall last, they may busy themselves at the Threshold of Thy oneness with servitude and worship, with salutation, adoration and praise. "I have not created spirits and men, but that they should worship me."Wherefore, wed Thou in the heaven of Thy mercy these two birds of the nest of Thy love, and make them the means of attracting perpetual grace; that from the union of these two seas of love a wave of tenderness may surge and cast the pearls of pure and goodly issue on the shore of life. "He hath let loose the two seas, that they meet each other: Between them is a barrier which they overpass not. Which then of the bounties of your Lord will ye deny? From each He bringeth up greater and lesser pearls."
Abdu'l-Baha, Compilations, Baha'i Prayers, p. 104
