I'm a musician, and I once performed at a same-sex marriage ceremony in Pennsylvania. As PA didn't have civil unions at the time, the couple attained one in New Jersey (which at the time had civil unions, a term that never quite caught on). The bride walked down the aisle to the theme from Anne of Green Gables, they read poetry, and I played classical pieces for the medication and the recessional (Ode to Joy for the latter). It was a marriage in everything but name, and if it happened today, it would've been called a marriage ceremony. People want to celebrate their big day when they join in legal partnership, and that doesn't necessarily have to do with religion.
