Just a simple question as the title goes

In our country, marriage paves a lot for logistics to be easier (papers, etc.) and my girlfriend and I have decided to not go for the marriage route since she also has personal trauma (family) around it. The way we view things right now is, we are already husband and wife, no need for a marriage to commensumate things. Especially since we are not following the mononormative way of escalating relationships (i.e., if you don’t marry your relationship is a failure!)

But we don’t have a lot of poly friends yet right now. In our country, it is taboo and frowned upon. So we wanted to get your thoughts :)
