If both members of the couple are in the same place at the same time, it can work out. The issue is that they consistently need to be in the same place. It's tricky.
The only time I'm like "gah I want to get married" is when KSUViolet posts wedding dress porn on GC. I'm also sure marriage will be just as boring as living together is now (not much would change for us, prior to having kids).

The only time I want to be married is when I refer to my boyfriend in a professional kind of situation. Like, talking about post-grad-school employment prospects with my professors, it sounds ridiculous to be like "oh, I have to consider where my boyfriend can do residency" instead of "where my husband can do residency".
But that's not so much about being married as it is having some kind of word that signifies "committed living together boyfriend".
