Cheri, novia & novio are spanish words. groom= noivo; bride= noiva. When talking about the couple they are called os "Noivos".
The Contrahente, is old spelling, now is Contraente. The Contraente/Contractors refers to those are contracting matrimony. It is only differentiated by the article 'a' or 'o'. Thus *o* contraente [noivo/groom] e *a* contraente [noiva]. If you google translate the word contraente you will get it.
