One of the new features of Skyrim is the ability to marry someone of whoever you meet in the game. It doesn’t matter if it’s a Khajit, a Nord, a male or a female. As long as you have the Amulet of Mara, you’re ready!

Now, the big question is, what are the requirements should you have to have this wedding?

– If your spouse is your companion, you can ask her to carry some of your equipments and direct her to either defend you or attack your enemies.
– Always visit your spouse as there’s a chance they’ll leave you.
