Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: She said, "My brother is getting married."
Explanation:
Approach
Backshift "was getting married" in indirect speech typically corresponds to present continuous "is getting married" in the original direct speech when the reporting verb is past. Pronoun "her" reverts to "my" because the speaker is "she".
Option analysis

Final Answer
She said, "My brother is getting married."
