Narnia has wedding customs, but they are between various creatures, and would not apply (for example, neither ruler is planning to give her affianced a heap of wood, as is customary among beavers). So they import some Earth things - Isabella's dress, though it is in full Narnian fashion all over leaves and flowers, is white. There is a cake, with some local chocolate (much nicer quality by now) adorning the frosting. There will be dancing while a small orchestra of creatures accompanies them with traditional Narnian songs and a little Bach Isabella pried out of the bookshelf.
There is an excitable rumor going about that Aslan will appear to marry them, but they can't really plan on that or even get an invitation to him (people who do get invitations: knights, Cair Paravel householders, important personages from the neighboring lands, holders of various honors from the war, other individuals who they like personally). So they plan on Mr. Tumnus conducting the ceremony, and they write themselves some vows, and the whole thing is held on the beach in high summer with the breeze blowing blessedly cool over them all from the sea.
Aslan does not appear to serve as celebrant, so Tumnus does it, and he does a perfectly lovely job, and the king and queen kiss one another.
