From the images, I don't see any obvious recurrent genital warts. The whitish areas are likely post-treatment scarring/pigment changes. If your dermatologist has confirmed clearance, you can proceed with marriage and have a normal sexual life. Complete the 3rd HPV vaccine dose as scheduled and continue routine follow-up.
Although a physical examination should be done for confirmation

Based on the history you have provided, the overall outlook is reassuring. You were diagnosed with genital warts in June 2025, treated with electrocautery, and have remained free of new warts for nearly one year. In addition, your dermatologist has examined you and confirmed that there is no evidence of recurrent warts, which is an encouraging sign.
I don't actually see the attached images in this conversation, so I can't comment on their appearance directly. If you upload them, I can review them. However, the whitish areas you describe are commonly seen after electrocautery and are often due to post-inflammatory pigment change or mild scar tissue, especially if they have remained stable and your dermatologist has not identified them as recurrent warts.
It is important to remember that the HPV virus can sometimes remain in the skin even after visible warts have cleared, but the risk of recurrence decreases over time, particularly when there has been no recurrence for many months and vaccination has been completed or is underway.
Next Steps
Complete the third dose of the Gardasil 9 vaccine as scheduled, and encourage your future wife to do the same. Continue to examine the area periodically for any new growths, and if you notice any new wart-like lesions, seek prompt evaluation before assuming they are scars. Regarding marriage, if your treating dermatologist has confirmed that the lesions have completely cleared and there has been no recurrence for almost one year, there is generally no reason to postpone marriage solely because of your previous genital warts. While condoms reduce the risk of HPV transmission, they do not eliminate it completely because HPV can affect skin not covered by a condom. The fact that both you and your partner are receiving the HPV vaccine provides additional protection against the HPV types included in the vaccine.

Health Tips
Maintain good genital hygiene, avoid smoking if applicable, and continue regular follow-up if advised by your dermatologist. Do not apply creams or medications to the treated area unless prescribed. Remember that having had genital warts in the past does not prevent you from having a healthy married life or normal sexual relationships. With successful treatment, completion of vaccination, and regular follow-up, many individuals go on to have satisfying relationships without further recurrence. If you would like me to comment specifically on the white patches, please upload the images, and I will review them in detail. Thank you
