What Made Us Skip the Courthouse to Get Married Online

Getting married online sounded crazy at first, virtual wedding but we pulled it off — and it worked better than we expected.

We were dealing with a long-distance relationship, so setting up an in-person appointment wasn’t going to happen. Doing it virtually turned out to be exactly what we needed.

The process? Super smooth from start to finish.

1. We started with a short form online

2. Scheduled the virtual ceremony

3. Logged into a video call

4. Had our ceremony

No courthouse. No stress. No expensive venue.

Just a valid marriage certificate and a lot of happy tears.

But here’s what you don’t see in most blogs:

- You can do it even if you're in different locations.

- It's legally recognized in all 50 states and many other countries.

- It turned out more intimate and meaningful than we thought.

It was absolutely the right choice for us.
