Earth is But One Country
by
J. Huddleston
One Paragraph

This vow clearly emphasizes the wide responsibilities of marriage and that neither partner is subject to the other but that both will strive to follow a much higher law. If the marriage requires a second ceremony, because of the requirements of the local government, or because on partner is not a Baha'i, then both ceremonies must take place on the same day. The legally recognized ceremony must be first. (81:1)
