Our Online Marriage: Love Without Borders

Our Online Marriage: Love Without Borders

Blog Article

Getting married was always part of our plan — we just didn’t expect to do it from separate countries.

When you’re in a long-distance relationship, especially with international logistics, everything gets more complicated. Paperwork, travel restrictions, planning — even picking a date can feel overwhelming.

We wanted to start our life together. But a traditional wedding just wasn’t an option.

Then we found out we could get married online.

At first, we thought it was too good website to be true. But after researching, we learned that states like Utah legally support fully virtual marriages — with a licensed officiant and official paperwork — and they’re recognized across the U.S..

We decided to go for it.

Here’s how it worked for us:

• We uploaded our IDs and filled out a quick form.
• We scheduled our wedding time with an officiant who was licensed for online ceremonies.
• We invited our loved ones to join via Zoom.
• And when the day came, we joined the call, said our vows, and just like that — we were married.

I said “I do” from my apartment. My partner said it from their country overseas.

It was unforgettable. It was stress-free. And it was ours.

The officiant made it feel official. The ceremony was short but meaningful. And we received our certified marriage certificate the same day — no courthouse, no plane tickets, no headaches.

Since then, we’ve used our online marriage to handle insurance updates, and every agency has recognized it — no issues at all.

If you’re dealing with distance, don’t wait. Online marriage is recognized, and it’s a modern way to start your future — even if you’re not in the same place.

We’re proof that love doesn’t need borders — and that what matters most is the vows.
