A pharaoh usually took at least one wife from his immediate family-sister, half-sister, daughter, cousin etc. They would usually become the pharaoh's chief wife.

He would also take a number of lesser wives, some of who would be foreign princesses, some family members, some the daughters of nobles. The pharaoh would also have a harem.

It is unknown whether they had any official ceremonies or anything.

It seemed that they simply moved in, and that made them married, and they moved out to divorce(women could divorce men too).
