I think it means a lot. It's commitment to someone, legal commitment, you're becoming family with someone of your own choosing. And I think as humans we/a lot of us recognize that it is a big move that sometimes requires sacrifice and we value it more than, say, just moving in together.

I don't think marriage "binds you to another person spiritually", love binds you together (not spiritually, but in this realm of reality), marriage makes it a legal commitment.
