Courtly cannot and does not provide legal advice in the areas of international marriage law or immigration.While remote appearance ceremonies that are hosted by an officiant on Courtly are legal according to US law, their acceptance by foreign governments or immigration officials is beyond our control.Please contact the officials in your jurisdiction or an immigration or family law attorney to determine the legal status of your remote appearance wedding and any additional steps or documents you may need for recognition.

Each applicant needs to upload a government-issued ID that clearly shows his or her name and date of birth. Our online system can automatically verify most driver's licenses and passports.
No! Your marriage records and documents will not say “online.” The US government does not distinguish between marriages performed in-person and those performed virtually.
An Apostille is a special certificate, issued by the Secretary of State or the Office of the Lieutenant Governor, that allows a legal document created in one country to be recognized in another country. An apostille ensures that your marriage certificate is considered legal, verifiably authentic, and acceptable in any of the countries that agreed to be part of The Hague Apostille Convention of 1961. If you want your marriage to be registered and/or recognized in a country outside of the United States, you may need this. To include an apostille in your application, visit our Pricing Page to learn more.
Every officiant on the Courtly platform is legally certified and undergoes a rigorous screening process and training program.
At this time, applications are only available to officiants based in Utah. You may check our job board for any availabilities.
