Your Online Marriage: Easy, Legitimate, and Global

Online marriage services enable couples to say “I do” regardless of where they live. The legal recognition and process can vary, so it’s crucial to understand how to navigate the process. For couples separated by borders, an online wedding might be your ticket to happiness!

Virtual Marriage Planning for International Lovebirds

Planning your big day virtually is all about coordination and choosing the right online wedding ceremony provider.

Be sure to check with local marriage laws or the U.S. Department of State before booking your virtual wedding.

Immigration & Online Marriage: Bridging the Miles Legally

An online marriage can support visa applications for couples dealing with immigration. Once you’re legally married through a state that recognizes online ceremonies, you can use your online marriage certificate for many immigration filings. For guidance and document support, visit our Immigration Support page.
