My partner and I were just looking for a legal way to get married, and online marriage came up.

We were dealing with a long-distance relationship, so waiting weeks for a courthouse date wasn’t going to happen. Using an online ceremony service made everything easier than expected.

Here's how it went down:

1. We started with a short form online

2. Chose a time that worked for both of us

3. Logged into a video call

4. Signed digitally and wrapped it up

Seriously.

Just a legal marriage, minus the chaos.

But here’s what we didn’t expect:

- You don't even have to be in the same country.

- It's legally recognized in all 50 states and many other countries.

- It gave us peace of mind without the virtual wedding red tape.

If you’re thinking about skipping the traditional route, go for it.
