I don’t want government involved in my marriage. Happy to take a bow before God and let that be enough. What are the legalities of marriage that make it beneficial?

A big one is that we automatically inherit the stuff we co-own when the other one dies without having to pay any sort of capital gains tax.

Depending on the person's will. But yeah that was the only one I can think of. I don't consider inheritance upon death to be part of the tax benefits of marriage though.
