Thank God for Rev. Byron

We are so glad we spoke to Rev. Byron who explained to us that if we are married in Virginia, we have to have a Virginia Marriage License and Virginia Court Authorized Officiant There is so much fraudulent information online about Utah Zoom Weddings for Virginia Couples'. Virginia does not accept Marriages performed in Virginia without a Virginia Court Authorized Officiant and a Virginia Marriage License. When Virginia entities were informed that a Virginia Couple was married in Virginia with a Utah Marriage License and it was performed by an Officiant not Authorized in Virginia, these entities informed the Couple that their marriage was not valid, and they should have obtained a Virginia Marriage License and be married by a Virginia Authorized Officiant. The Virginia Attorney General issued a memo back in 2020 that allows phone or Zoom Weddings with the Officiant and the two parties being in three separate locations as long as the ceremony is performed in Virginia.

Virginia Wedding Because of Federal Shutdown

Thanks so much to Rev. Byron for helping to get us married today. With the Federal Shutdown, our DC Courthouse Wedding was canceled so we called Rev. Byron and we got the marriage license in Virginia and one of his Ministers performed our ceremony in Alexandria. All of our guests came over to Alexandria for the ceremony. What a nice ceremony which was better than the DC Courthouse does. Shanika and Terrance

We forgot the DC Courthouse was closed because of the Federal Shutdown! When we called Rev. Byron he sent us to the Alexandria, VA Courthouse and we got the marriage license very quickly, so now we are going to do a Saturday wedding in Alexandria performed by one of the Associates of Rev. Byron . Everything worked out better since more people will be able to come. Tara and Travis
The Right Solution for DC Couples'

We are so glad we talked to Rev. Byron after we found out that DC stopped zoom marriages, and if they are busy you want get the marriage license the same day. Rev. Byron emailed us the Virginia memo indicating that we can do a remote marriage thru Virginia. We went to Alexandria Courthouse and sent all that is required to Rev. Byron and we did the ceremony on the weekend when everyone was available. What a Great Relief! Nakita and Dashawn

We are so glad we spoke to Rev. Byron and got the facts in writing that remote Weddings are indeed legal in Virginia. Virginia Courts, Online Posts, and Utah Officiants repeatedly say that they are not legal, but the Virginia Attorney General said that they ARE legal and stated: Virginia Law does NOT require that the parties to the Wedding and the Officiant to be in the Same Location. Rev. Byron even emailed the memo. We are glad we didn't fall for the Utah Scam and got married legally in Virginia. Tamara and Keith
Virginia Zoom Wedding
— An Eventective User

A Great Thanks to Rev. Byron for his expertise in knowing the law and making sure every couple is legally married in the State where their Marriage Ceremony is performed. We contacted Rev. Byron after some friends fell for the Utah Zoom Wedding Scam. They read so much misinformation online and thought they had to do a Virginia Zoom Wedding thru Utah because they were told by a Utah Minister that Zoom Weddings were not legal in Virginia. When Virginia found out about the Utah Marriage in Virginia they informed the couple that they were not legally married since Virginia Law requires that a Virginia Marriage License be obtained and a Virginia Court Authorized Officiant be utilized to perform the Ceremony for all marriages including Zoom and Phone Weddings in which the couple is in Virginia at the time of the Ceremony. They were also told that the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the Constitution does not apply to them since ONLY a legal marriage in one State has to be accepted in all other States. Their marriage was not legal according to Virginia. We are so glad that we only contacted Rev. Byron to perform our Ceremony. Tiara and Phil
Rev. Byron saved the Day

We had an emergency involving a family illness and could not leave the family member who had a stroke. My wedding was scheduled the next day and we could not reschedule it since so many family members and Friends were coming in to town. I called several courts who told us that all parties have to be together and we could just cancel the Wedding. I then spoke to Rev. Byron who emailed the memo stated by the Virginia Attorney General that all three parties can be in three different locations, as long as one of the parties to the marriage is in Virginia for the ceremony. They Zoomed me in for the ceremony and Thank God my aunt is making progress! Kyla and Derrick

Thanks to Rev. Byron for doing a video wedding for us for only $100. All other Ministers are $250 and up! Rev. Byron sent me the memo citing the Virginia Attorney General who indicated that phone and video weddings are legal and that the marital parties can be in separate locations and the Officiant can be anywhere.
