In the article "You May Now Kiss the Computer" Sarah Maslin talks about how Punam Chowdhury married her fiance of the internet on a computer. She also talks about other marriges tha happened over the interent.
This article includes a quote from George Andrew of "Proxy Marriage Now!" who believe that people who do proxy marriage are immigrant frauds or use it for other reasons. Those reason are to get around local laws like those in israel and other countries who doesn't perform mixed religion marriages, couples that live in different countries and same sex couples. In some states same sex marriage is now legalized.
I believe people should not marry over the internet and have a traditional wedding. When you get married over the internet it's not really like you're sharing that special day with your partner because you are not there to kiss eachother and hold hands. Family should also be around. But for the israelian people and people from other foriegn countries should be able to marry over the internet because their religion is very judging if they have no internet wedding there will be no wedding at all. Same sex couples should also be able to marry over the internet.
If "Proxy Marriage Now!" believes that immigrants are doing marriage fraud why wont they stop marrying them?
