Military Marriages

Armed Forces proxy Marriages

Montana will issue marriage certificates to active-duty members of the U.S. Military who are unable to physically attend a marriage ceremony. Just because you have to wait to see your loved one, doesn't mean you should have to wait to be married.

Valentine’s Day Anniversaries

We are proud to unite, in marriage, members of the Armed Forces that are unable to be together for their wedding.  We are hopeful that these couples will have a celebration of their love with friends and family once they are safely back home.  Although they are legally married via Double Proxy marriage, the wedding celebration can be traditional and fabulous.

MANY of our couples will celebrate Valentine’s Day as their anniversary.  We have been working tirelessly to honor their wishes to be married on February 14th.   It seems like a  perfect day for a wedding and a great way to remember your anniversary!

If a double proxy marriage is right for you, we are grateful for the opportunity to discuss your situation.   We are available to you 24 hours per day.  Many of your questions can be answered at www.armedforcesproxymarriages.com on the FAQ page or give us a call.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!

Baby due soon – Double proxy gets them married in time

Here at Armed Forces Proxy Marriages, we receive several calls from our military men and women who are expecting a baby soon.   We recently had a call from Vanessa who is 5 months pregnant with her first baby.  Her fiance, Joe, is deployed in Afghanistan and unable to get home for a wedding.  Vanessa and her new baby need the insurance for well-baby care and she would like to be married before the baby (a girl she thinks) is born.  Due to our double proxy law here in Montana, we are able to get them married within a few weeks time.   A double proxy marriage allows two other people to “stand in” for Vanessa and Joe.  We look forward to pictures of their baby AND their wedding celebration once Joe returns home (God Bless You) and we are so happy to have brought them together as a family.

FAQ’s for a double proxy marriage

Montana marries hundreds of military men and women via double proxy marriage every year.  This LEGAL marriage is recognized by all branches of the military, every state (except Iowa), and most countries.  Because Montana is the only state that allows a double proxy marriage, we get many questions from prospective brides and grooms. 

For example,  “Do we have to be together to have a double proxy marriage”.  The answer is NO.  The law is such that our deployed military can marry their sweethearts so that they CAN be together.  The prospective bride and groom will send in the paperwork separately and we will take care of the rest.

Armedforcesproxymarriages.com is an expert in double proxy marriages.  We will expedite your application and get your Marriage License to you as quickly as possible.  Our success is because we care about our clients.  We are here for you with any questions and feel that serving you is an honor.

Is Double Proxy Marriage in Montana new?

Montana performs hundreds of Double Proxy Marriages to soldiers serving our country overseas and who are unable to be with their “bride/groom to be” to get married in a traditional manner.  I wonderered how long this untraditional proxy marriage has been going on.

I am not certain of the first proxy but there is a famous one.  One of the most famous proxy marriages was that of Emperor Napoleon and the marriage to Archduchess Marie Louise of Austria. This was the second marriage for Napoleon and took place 11 March 1810. It is said that Napoleon gave the reason of needing an heir as the primary expectation of the union. He seemed genuinely excited as he decided to lose some weight, he learned how to dance the waltz and had pictures portraying his victories over Austria removed from his palaces. The marriage took place in Vienna.  She was not actually present at the wedding.

At Armedforcesproxymarriages.com we help enlisted soldiers get married without having to travel.  The process is fairly simple and requires paperwork to be completed by the bride and the groom.   It is not necessary that the bride and groom be together as we join the papers as they are mailed to us.  We will perform the ceremony and have the marriage license mailed out to the newly married couple.  It might not be the most romantic of ideas, however, we provide a greatly needed service to the men and women unable to leave their bases overseas.
