American Marriage to Pakistani in Pakistan?

I am an American marrying a Pakistani in Pakistan. We will live in Pakistan after the marriage. What are the legal requirements in Pakistan for this marriage?

Update:

Look guys, I don't need religious advice. If you want to do that go to religion and spirituality. This is the Politics/Government Immigration section. I only want to know about the LEGAL issues dealing with this scenario.

    Salaam. I'm English and am married to a Pakistani. We had an Islamic marriage in the UK (no documents required at that time) and I had no problems on a recent visit to Pakistan. Really nice place. No legal requirements. You just have to have a couple of witnesses each, and in some places you'll sign a book in the village.
