It is not a condition for the validity of the contract that the guardian directly conducts or attends the marriage contract of his ward. Your guardian can appoint someone to attend the contract session, provided that the appointed agent is qualified for guardianship. If your father is unable to appoint an agent, the next in line in guardianship can marry you off. If there is no one, then the ruler will marry you off.
