Fiqh of Marriage

I’ve seen people to sign their wedding contracts or do nikah in masjids where the imam and other Muslimeen sit and pray for the newly wed. Is this from the sunnah? If it’s not a sunnah and if there’s nothing mentioned about it in the sunnah, where would you recommend us to sign our wedding contracts or do nikah?
