I was just listening to your show and heard the question about a marriage invitation's wording. The question was about Marriage TO or marriage WITH.
I know of at least one American usage of marriage WITH. In the musical THE GRASS HARP there is an African-American character who sings a song called, "Marry with Me." The show is set in the Deep South during the depression. The show is also based on a Truman Capote novella and it is certainly possible that Capote uses this phrasing, too.
Anyway, this usage does seem to have some presence in the South or at least Black American dialect.

Comparative linguistics will show that "marriage with" is consistent with the cognate preposition used in other European languages. I occasionally heard "married with" among English-Spanish bilinguals when I lived in southern Arizona.
