I'm currently preparing Married or Single? by Catharine Maria Sedgwick for the MobileRead library, in an annotated version which will explain some of the many quotes and allusions.

In the Preface Miss Sedgwick writes that she 'will make the hero and heroine man and wife' ... Omnia rité et solenné acta sunt.

The best I can get out of Google Translate is 'Are properly instructed in all the acts and in common usage', which makes no sense at all to me. Can anyone give me a better translation, or point me to some source which will give a better translation?
