How to unlock the Married achievement in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition - Definitive Guide

To get married in Skyrim you will need to travel to Riften and find Maramal.

You can normally find Maramal in The Bee and Barb tavern during the day or Temple of Mara at night to sleep. If you cannot find him in either location you may have walked past him while he travels between locations.

Simply ask him about getting married. He will explain to you the process. Basically it goes like this.

Step 1. Get an Amulet of Mara.
There are two ways of getting the Amulet of Mara. Both ways require you pay 200 gold. Your choices are...

a. Purchase it from Maramal while talking to him. No quest, just move on to Step 2.

b. If you like quests, find Dinya Balu in the Temple of Mara to start the "The Book of Love" quest. Half way through the second love story that you assist in you will have to pay 200 gold for a poem. At the end of that story (roughly 2/3 of the way through the quest) you return to Dinya Balu where you receive the amulet. Do note that you have to complete this quest before you can use the amulet in Step 2.
Step 2. Wear the Amulet of Mara in front of the one you want to be your significant other.
You have to complete a requirement to befriend the NPC before you can propose marriage. There are 30 female and 37 male NPCs you can choose from. Check out http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Spouse#NPCs_available_to_be_... for a complete list of who you can marry and what conditions you need to fulfill.
Step 3. Return to Maramal and tell him you want to be married.
He will tell you to be at the Temple of Mara at dawn.
Step 4. Get married.
Enter the Temple of Mara and use the wait feature to progress time to after 7:00 AM. The game will auto move your character and start the 2 minute long ceremony.
Step 5. Say yes!

That is it. You're married and the achievement should pop soon after the priest finishes officiating.

While yes Camilla Valerius is an easy one o IExcision, not everyone wants that NPC to be their partner. That's why I provided the link in step 2 for all 67 partners.

Camilla Valerius at the Riverwood (Riverwood Trader) is obviously an easy one, as you would have completed the The Golden Claw quest

To get married you will have to travel to the Temple of Mara in Riften. Once here speak to the priest and ask about marriage and how to get married. When you have done this the priest will give you the amulet of Mara which you must equip. Once equipped people may express interest in you (Helps if you complete misc objectives for individual people). If you express interest back then you an arrange to get married (Jesus that was quick!) and you will have to travel back to the Temple for the ceremony. Once the ceremony is complete and you say I do, you will be married and the achievement should pop.

Travel to Riften and go to the Temple of Mara. Inside their should be a priest called Maramal, if he's not inside the Temple of Mara then he can be found inside the Bee and the Barb giving a speech. Talk to Maramal about marriage, you don't need to buy an amulet of Mara if you already have one. Equip the Amulet of Mara and go and speak to whichever NPC you wish to marry. There will be an option asking if they are interested. Once you've selected the NPC you wish to marry head back to the Temple of Mara and speak to Maramal in order to arrange a wedding. Head outside of the temple and wait in game 24 hours and enter the temple and select "I do" during the ceremony. Once you say I do the achievement will unlock and you can speak with your wife/husband/partner and discuss where to live and they will now be found at the house you selected.

You need to wear the Amulet of Mara, then in a chat with a potential spouse you can offer to live together, while both in your purchased house and he/she can have their own house.
The wedding takes place in the temple of Mara in Riften, where you can also buy an amulet for 200 rubles)

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that in some cases, even when wearing Mary’s amulet, the item “Do I like you?” may not be available in dialogue with a potential spouse. To do this, you just need to talk about marriage with Maramal in the Temple of Mara in Riften.

The beginning of the quest was not described quite correctly, for a long time I could not understand why potential spouses did not want to talk to me, I put on the amulet to no avail, but I should have first talked to Maramal in the city of Riften. He can initially be found in the Bee and Sting tavern, where he will read his sermons to local residents, and then he can be found in the Temple of Mara, so he will tell us about marriage in Skyrim, after which you can put on an amulet and look for a bridegroom , the line “I like you” will appear in the dialogue with your potential spouse.

We go to Riften, visit the Temple of Mary. We are looking for a priest. In the purchase and sale menu, we purchase Mary’s amulet from him. We dress him, he will help us in dialogues with the inhabitants of Skyrim to pick up the interlocutor. As soon as you have used this opportunity, return to the Temple to the priest and ask him to betroth you. He will tell you the time.
