Yes—you’re welcome to livestream your wedding and include guests virtually, but for your marriage to be legally valid, you, your partner, the celebrant, and the two witnesses must all be physically present in the same location during the ceremony.
Livestreaming is popular for:
-
Sharing the ceremony with overseas or interstate loved ones
-
Hosting hybrid events with a mix of in-person and virtual guests
-
Capturing the day for people who can’t attend due to illness, travel, or venue limits
You can use platforms like Zoom, Teams, YouTube Live, or a professional videographer to broadcast the ceremony—just ensure your venue has stable internet.
❌ But remember:
-
Your wedding cannot be legally performed via Zoom or video call
-
All legal elements (Monitum, vows, signing) must happen in person
-
Witnesses must physically see and hear the ceremony in real time and be in the room
