* In ''Anime/{{Photon}}'', after getting the kana for baka [[FaceDoodling drawn on his forehead]] by his mischievous [[ChildhoodFriendRomance childhood friend]] Aun, the title character draws the same characters on the forehead of the sleeping Keyne. Since in Keyne's culture, a man proposes to a woman by drawing his "personal symbol" on her forehead, Keyne awakens, discovers what happened, and concludes that she and Photon are engaged. [[spoiler: At the end, Photon ends up accidentally marrying Aun, Lashara and Keyne (again) when he draws the kana on all three of them, although he doesn't seem to understand what he's done]].

* In the ''Manga/OnePiece'' fanfic ''Fanfic/OurMrsMonkey'', Usopp forges marriage documents for Luffy and Nami when the crew arrives in Loguetown. However, those documents are intercepted by the Marines and Garp finds out about them. Garp immediately orders the documents to be properly processed and as a result, legally, Luffy and Nami are married in the eyes of the law. In a variation of the usual gender roles for this trope, ''Luffy'' is the one who insists the marriage is real, while Nami needs a couple of chapters to accept their new relationship.

* In ''ComicBook/{{Chew}}'', this happens between Agent Colby and his supervisor Appleby. Colby is certainly not happy...especially when he sees the in-laws...
* In a DC {{Elseworlds}} issue ''Detective Comics Annual'' #7 (1994), {{Pirate}} Franchise/{{Batman}} ("Captain Leatherwing") rescues a NobleSavage princess, and gives her a European dress to replace her torn clothing. Later, the princess (with her father interpreting) gives Leatherwing a bracelet. He accepts, not knowing that this exchange means that they are now married ... to the later consternation of Pirate ComicBook/{{Catwoman}}.
* In ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules'' #134, "W.W.T.D.? (What Would Thor Do?)", Herc, standing in for his absent buddy Thor, travels to Svartalfheim to confront the warlike Dark Elves and their queen Alflyse. After passing the three tests to prove he really is Thor (he actually fails the test of "ShowSomeLeg" but an enthusiastic Alflyse declares 2 out of 3 is good enough) there's a night of [[BlatantLies respectably restrained]] [[http://static4.comicvine.com/uploads/original/1/11352/952342-24.jpg celebration]] and Hercules wakes the next day to find [[http://static8.comicvine.com/uploads/original/1/11352/952343-27.jpg Alflyse has accepted him as her husband.]] [[http://static5.comicvine.com/uploads/original/1/15776/950898-alflyse.jpg There are worse fates...]]

* Subverted in ''Literature/MobyDick'': After Ishmael shares a pipe with Queequeg, the latter suddenly presses foreheads with the former and declares that they are married, even though the two of them just met recently. The narration [[NotWhatItLooksLike immediately clarifies]] that - apparently - Queequeg just meant that according to his culture he and Ishmael are now "bosom friends". However, Ishmael does go on to compare his relationship to Queequeg to a marriage [[HoYay multiple times.]]

This wasn't accidental, it was very deliberate on Ren's part. It just happened without Takeya's consent.


* As the plot of ''Manga/DearS'', the protagonist Takeya ''bonds'' with Ren through a direct kiss in the very first episode -- then spent half of the series wondering what was going on between two of them.

* In ''Franchise/DragonBall'' fanfic ''Fanfic/TheSagaOfTheLastTwoSaiyans'', Goku misunderstands the Grand Minister when asked if he and Vegeta "are bonded as one". He answers yes, as he thinks the Grand Minister is talking about fusion, which he and Vegeta had done before. Goku was actually being asked if he and Vegeta were soul-bonded, which causes the gods to believe the two are married as far as they are concerned. They can't back out of this since the gods would likely destroy them for what they would see as an intentional lie.

* In ''Fanfic/JudgementDayDragonBall'', Goku tells King Yemma that he and Vegeta are soul-bonded without knowing what it means, many years before he dies. He doesn’t realize until after his death that he’d more or less told King Yemma he and Vegeta were married. Since their judgment papers say they’re soul-bonded, they are whether they like it or not.

When set in modern times, the trope usually takes the form of a [[RealFakeWedding joke, practice, or stage wedding]] that actually turns to be reveal after the officiant is revealed to be a legitimate minister or justice of the peace. If the accidental marriage is discovered years after the fact, see OopsIForgotIWasMarried.
