Try the book of Genesis in the Bible. You will see that it was between Adam and Eve.
If you refer the the modern ceremony, each country does it differently. In some countries the bride is taken through the town on the back of a donkey, in some countries it is a seven day celebration with many rituals involved. I am sure there are as many different ceremonies as there are countries and religions in the world.
For the traditional american ceremony, that has been evolving as any other ceremony, but I am sure you can say it started back when the Pilgrims landed here.
