The DBZ fic I'm writing now is going to have a wedding near the end.
Problem is, it's going to be for those two in my avatar. Both guys, in other words.
What should I use to fill in the gaps in "I now pronounce you [blank] and [blank], you may kiss the [blank]?" (For that matter, how do gay marriages in this world handle it?)

An easy substitute for "I now pronounce you husband and wife." that some same-sex vows use is "I now pronounce you partners for life."

"You may now kiss each other" seems alright too.

Would a DB wedding follow western customs, though?

Given that the few weddings we've had glimpses of are at least Western-influenced, and add the fact that the Briefs family is very definitely more Western-based than Oriental (as opposed to the Son family), I think it works.

It's Dragonball. You are overthinking this. You could have a wedding ceremony composed of cake-throwing and fart lighting and it wouldn't be a stretch.
