Blending two families is a journey full of heart, hope, and—let’s be honest—a few headaches along the way! As an online marriage service, we’ve seen firsthand how virtual marriage and Zoom weddings personally empower blended families to celebrate love and unity, even when everyone can’t be in the same room. Whether your kids are scattered across states or your partner’s relatives live overseas, getting married online is transforming how blended families say “I do.” Here’s everything you need to know about going virtual for your big day!
