Yes, you can livestream the celebration for guests, but the legal marriage cannot take place entirely by video call. The couple, authorised celebrant and two witnesses must be physically present together.

Remote witnessing of the NOIM is a separate option for preparing the paperwork. It does not remove the in-person ceremony requirement or the celebrant’s separate, in-person meeting with each partner before the marriage.

For the livestream, appoint someone to manage the camera and connection, test the sound and tell guests whether it is being recorded. A backup recording can be useful if reception drops out, but your legal witnesses still need to attend in person.
