I never pictured myself getting married online. But here we are — and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My significant other and I had been talking about marriage for months, but with living in different states, planning a traditional wedding felt out of reach. We weren’t even sure when we’d be in the same place long enough to make it official.

One night, while reading wedding blogs, I came across a post about legal Zoom ceremonies. At first, I thought it was some kind of scam, but the more I looked into it, the more legit it seemed.

Turns out, in places like Utah, you can get officially hitched completely online — no courthouse visit required. It's recognized in all 50 states.

We decided to go for it. Why wait?

Here’s what the process looked like for us:

  • We scheduled a time with a licensed officiant through an online marriage service.
  • We uploaded our IDs, completed a few online forms, and got our electronic marriage license within hours.
  • On our wedding day, we kept it casual but meaningful, sent the Zoom link to our closest friends and family, and said our vows live on camera.

By the end of the call, we were legally joined. We toasted over FaceTime, smiled at each other through the screen, and let it all sink in. It was real — even from hundreds of miles away.

You don’t have to wait for a perfect moment or a perfect venue. You just need someone you love, a decent Wi-Fi signal, and a little bit of paperwork.

Marriage is evolving, and honestly? That’s kind click here of amazing.

No matter the distance, you can make it official — and make it yours.
