We Said "I Do" Over Zoom — And It Was Perfect

I never pictured myself getting married without being in the same room. But here we are — and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My significant other and I had been talking about marriage for some time, but with travel limitations, 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 falling into an internet rabbit hole, I came across a post about virtual weddings. At first, I thought it was some kind of scam, but the more I looked into remote wedding it, the more legit it seemed.

Turns out, in places like Utah, you can get officially hitched completely online — no need to be in the same location. It's fully legal in the U.S..

We decided to go for it. Why wait?

Here’s what the process looked like for us:

  • We booked a time with a licensed officiant through an official virtual marriage site.
  • 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 loved ones, and said our vows live on camera.

Before we knew it, we were officially married. 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 intimate 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 easier than you’d think — 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.

Love doesn’t follow old rules anymore, 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.
