Want to Get Married Online in Georgia? Here’s What You Need to Know
If you’re in Georgia and dreaming of a simple, court-free wedding, you’re probably wondering: Can I get married online in Georgia legally?
I’m one of the folks at Virtual Same Day Marriage, and the short answer is: yes—you absolutely can get married online in Georgia. But not in the way you might think.
Let me show you how thousands of Georgia couples are skipping courthouse lines, complicated scheduling, and public ceremonies—while still getting a 100% valid U.S. marriage certificate.
Can You Legally Get Married Online in Georgia?
Under Georgia law, couples still need to appear in person to get a marriage license at a probate court, and the wedding ceremony must be performed with an officiant and two witnesses—which can’t be done fully online.
But here’s the game-changer: Georgia fully recognizes marriages performed legally in other states, including Utah’s online marriage law, which allows remote Zoom ceremonies.
That’s right—you can get married online in Georgia using Utah’s system, and your marriage certificate will be 100% legal and accepted throughout Georgia and the U.S.
Here’s how our process works step-by-step.
