Additionally all political marriages has to be approved by the head of the dynasty and the head also has the power to force marriages on all unmarried members of the dynasty if an alliance or political relationship is needed, this however, is an incredibly rare occurance as the dynasty head mostly leaves marriages to the individual or their parents.
