That would be the secular way to do it for sure. I lost sodomite friends back in the day for suggesting they do that exact thing, while telling them that they couldn’t have possession of the word “marriage”.
It may be necessary to do that within a religious context, but I currently see no reason it couldn’t be avoided, either.
I don't see it as a purely secular thing.
Sure, it can be viewed that way, but there is nothing in the Bible about getting a marriage license (i.e. permission) from the government. There also is nothing about a church ceremony, wedding ring, wedding dress, wedding cake, etc.
All of those things are fine to do, and none are a violation of biblical principles, but those are all optional.
Biblical marriage, if you look at the examples given, is merely (a) agreement to be married, and (b) consumation of that agreement.
It is no different than a typical contract, verbal or written, where an agreement is made, and then a handshake and/or signature symbolizes that the agreement was, in fact, made.
Government has made itself the default contract, when it has no business being that. The "marriage license" was not even a thing until about 100 years ago. The Founding Fathers certainly did not bother with that nonsense.
