S writes "I promise to pay 'B' a sum of Rs.500, seven days after my marriage with 'C"'. Is this a promissory note?
Promissory note can be based on future event. The event should be certain, but date on which it will happen need not be certain. In this case, the event of S's marriage with 'C' is not certain, as S may not marry or marry some other person. Hence, this is not a promissory note.
