We Said "I Do" Over Zoom — And It Was Perfect
We Said "I Do" Over Zoom — And It Was Perfect
Blog Article
I never pictured myself getting married through a screen. But sometimes things happen differently than expected.
My partner and I had been talking about marriage for some time, but with travel limitations, planning a traditional wedding felt overwhelming. We weren’t even sure when we’d be in the same place long enough to make it official.
One night, while read more browsing forums, I came across a post about legal Zoom ceremonies. At first, I thought it was just symbolic, but the more I looked into it, the more legit it seemed.
Turns out, in places like Utah, you can legally marry completely online — no courthouse visit required. It's even accepted internationally in many cases.
We decided to go for it. Why wait?
Here’s what the process looked like for us:
- We secured a time with a licensed officiant through an official virtual marriage site.
- We uploaded our IDs, completed a few online forms, and got our virtual marriage license within hours.
- On our wedding day, we wore something nice for the webcam, sent the Zoom link to our closest inner circle, and said our vows live on camera.
Before we knew it, 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.
Honestly? It was one of the most stress-free experiences we could’ve asked for. No overpriced venue. No awkward seating charts. Just us, the copyright we meant, and a handful of people who love us cheering from their screens.
If you’re exploring wedding options, I highly recommend looking into online marriage. It's fully legitimate — especially if you're in a long-distance relationship.
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.
Modern love looks different, and honestly? That’s kind of amazing.
Whether you're across the street or across the ocean, you can make it official — and make it yours.
