The Word of God teaches that marriage is a union between one man and one woman.
The consistory shall ensure that the members of the congregation marry only in the Lord, and that the ministers—as authorized by the consistory—solemnize only such marriages as are in accordance with the Word of God.
The solemnization of a marriage may take place either in a private ceremony or in a public worship service. The adopted Form for the Solemnization of Marriage shall be used.

Artikel 70
Alsoo bevonden wordt dat tot noch toe verscheyden gebruycken in houwelijcxsche saecken alomme onderhouden zijn / ende nochtans wel oirbaer is gelijckformicheyt daer inne gepleeght te worden : soo sullê de Kercken blijvê by het gebruyck ‘twelcke sy conform Gods Woordt ende voorgaende Kerckelijcke ordinautien tot noch toe onderhouden hebben / tot dat by der hoogher Overicheydt (diemen daer toe met den eersten sal versoecken) een Generale Ordinantie / met advijs der Kercken-Dienaren / daer op gemaeckt sal zijn / tot de welcke dese Kercken-ordeningh haer in dit stuck refereert.
