Marion - you have touched upon a theme where there might be scholarly articles in some of the more obscure publications of Irish History (I am thinking particularly of Irish and Economic & Social History Journal published from 1974).
By way of introduction I wrote a short piece on marriage pre-civil registration reflecting on marriages in an early period based on a case study of the Coleraine and Roe Valley (Limavady) districts. http://www.ulsterheritage.com/history/marriage_in_ireland.htm It doesn't cover all of your questions but hope you find it interesting.

Were they based on social, cultural or religious factors ? Did the bride and groom have much input ? Were protestant and Roman Catholic approaches very different? Also what were the attitudes to illegitimacy by family members and society at large? How were the mothers and children treated ? Thank you in advance for your help !
