Getting or being?

To use the word "Getting" in conjunction with another verb is a colloquial, informal, and somewhat uneducated way of speaking.

It is used in an enormous variety of ways, which can be very confusing for people who are not fluent in English.

"We are getting married" = "We have promised to marry each other," or, "we have made all the arrangements to marry."

"We are being married" means much the same thing but is more correct. Literally, it would mean that
we are at this moment going through the ceremony of marriage
but, in practice,
it more usually means that
the marriage will happen fairly soon.

"I was getting married" implies that the engagement or the ceremony has been cancelled.

"To marry" is an [i]active[/i] verb. It means to go through the ceremony and official signing of documents which pledge monogamy until death.

"To be married" is the [i]passive[/i] form of the verb. It means that the couple is legally joined by a spiritual-leader or celebrant-empowered-by-the-state.

eh.. being is what WE get.

In a lot of cases, you get beaten after you get married
