 From Okrand's latest description, I still read the verb {Saw} as a verb 
related to what a husband does, so I see a gay couple marriage in your 
lines.
"he is not a son of HUSBANDS who had married each other"

For a man-to-woman marriage, I'd use the verb {tlhoghchuq} to be sure - 
even though that word is gender-less.
