Yes, Tolkien definitely said that about Elvish unions. In lieu of a ceremony, two Elves are definitely married after the physical act takes place.
Only, I'm human, and it doesn't seem right unless they get up there in front of us and make pledges to each other and exchange rings. Plus, only one-quarter of this union is Elvish. Half is big person, and one-quarter hobbit. And, as far as I'm concerned, that hobbit quarter's not hooked until they go through the proper steps.
