Question: Is there a better alternative for “marriage seeker”?

Answer: Yes: there is Courter, suitor, inamorato and fiancé.

Definitions

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, (1913), s.v Courter:

1. One who courts; one who plays the lover, or who solicits in marriage; one who flatters and cajoles.

Wordnet 3.6, s.v. Suitor

1. A man who courts a woman; "a suer for the hand of the princess".

Wordnet 3.6 s.v. Inamorato: "1. A male lover."

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, 1913, s.v. inamorato

1. A man with whom you are in love or have an intimate relationship.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, 1913 s.v. Fiance: " 1. A betrothed man."

Wordnet 3.6 s.v. Fiance: "A man who is engaged to be married."

Use in a sentence: He was her courter, suitor, inamorato, or fiancé; she was indecisive on the matter, the exactness of their relationship.
