And it's a big question how serious they can possibly be. But at least
there you have a shtar and witnesses, and devarim shebelev einam devarim.
Here we're talking davka about devarim shebelev. If the tenai is not
meant seriously it's worthless. And I don't believe it is possible for
any couple to take it seriously, especially bish'as biah. Any couple who
make this tenai and mean it, shouldn't be getting married.
