Courtly made it possible for me to have a beautiful and meaningful wedding ceremony with my partner, even though same-sex marriage is not yet legalized in my country. I’m incredibly grateful. Courtly has provided a platform that allows same-sex couples to have the same rights and experiences as opposite-sex couples, and I am so thankful for the work they do in fighting for equality and acceptance.It gave us the chance to celebrate our love in a way we never thought possible, and that means the world to us.

I am honestly shocked at how easy this was. I am a diplomat, based abroad, and needed a US marriage license to add my spouse to my travel orders. We needed to move quickly, and the entire team at Courtly was so wonderful and supportive. Their responses to our questions were nearly immediate, and thorough. Even though we were doing this “just for the paperwork” the online ceremony was very meaningful and sweet.

I reached out to Courtly for my online wedding prior to my destination wedding in Hawaii, and they responded right away. They handled everything from filing the license, hiring an officiant, setting up the conference call, providing witnesses, and even shipping our marriage certificate after the wedding. I would absolutely recommend it to couples who would want a smooth and seamless online wedding. Thank you Courtly!

My fiancé and I were in a long-distance relationship and we had been struggling to find a way to get married without having to travel. That’s when we found Courtly, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. The process was so simple and straightforward, and we were able to get legally married online in just a few minutes. The ceremony felt just as special as if we were in the same room. It was a weight off our shoulders, and we can’t thank Courtly enough for making it possible.

I got married to my husband in the military over a year ago with Courtly. We were in a rush, so they sorted out everything in two days. All we had to do was show up. My experience was pretty much seamless. The officiant was great, got my video footage that I love, and everything worked out. A few of his friends got married here after we did because of how good ours went. So look no further because they’re definitely worth the price!

Reliable, trustworthy, highly organized, honest, and above all, passion-driven team. The team guided us through all the processes, and they were very responsive. Our officiant was also phenomenal! Our wedding was held online from Russia, and the US immigration recognized the marriage. We are currently in the process of spousal petition. From start to finish, the whole process was smooth, and we felt supported every step of the way. Courtly simply exceeded our expectations!
