Notice sex does not constitute marriage. Before marriage it is fornication to be repented of.
“And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.” (John 2:1–2)
“The next day there was a wedding celebration in the village of Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the celebration.” (John 2:1–2)
Sex is the marriage. As it says here of a man who has sex with a virgin:
If a man meets a virgin who is not betrothed, and seizes her and lies with her, and they are found, then the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the young woman fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife. ~Deuteronomy 22:28-29
If you have sex with a virgin, then you are married to the person. The reason the marriage ceremony is so important is because it is a public vow you make before all the people. And God said:
If a man vows a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth. ~Numbers 30:2
