Put in new article on length of marriage (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nuptial

'of marriage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'put in new article on length' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'article' becomes 'a' (indefinite article**).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'length' becomes 'l'.
'put'+'in'='putin'
'putin' with letters rearranged gives 'nupti'.
'nupti'+'a'+'l'='NUPTIAL'

(Other definitions for nuptial that I've seen before include "Marital" , "Matrimonial" , "Relating to marriage" , "To do with marriage or a wedding ceremony" , "Relating to weddings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
