anthropologically there are so many different types of marriage: Monogamous, polygamous, polyandrous, polyamorous, group, etc.
Cishet monogamous marriage, the type recognized as legitimate in the Capitalist West, the institution upholding bourgeois private property and family structures, will probably wither away under communism, but I doubt all recognized anthropological forms of romantic union will wither away. Our definition of what marriage precisely means is often limited.
If we are being serious, I would think that there would be some form of marriage as a celebration of love and partnership. But it will probably deviate quite substantially from current traditions and marriage would no longer be a legal category even before the withering away of the state.
I unironically believe that under communism marriage will basically wither away.
Modern wedding are definitely bougie though.
Idk, I like weddings.
I think having a big party to publicly celebrate how you and your partner really like each other and want to stay together is cool and fun.
