They certainly seemed to be quite in love in "Manhattan", so perhaps it was a marriage founded on a desire to truly be together. I imagine something like, Rumple being known in the village as his father's cowardly son and how he's an orphan because the spinsters raised him, but perhaps Milah was impressed by his skill of spinning wool and his kind nature. Or something like, Milah was actually from an upper class family, but she longs for a simpler, freer life without so many formalities and arrangements. And one day, while disguising herself as a commoner, she wanders into a village and her heart is captured by Rumplestiltskin. ;)

Or would that just be really corny? XD
