My fiancée and I were supposed to get married at a court for a civil wedding, but the courthouse is closed due to the pandemic. We have now found a priest who can perform the ceremony and sign the marriage certificate. Will the USCIS consider this a legal wedding?

Generally speaking, as long as the marriage is recognized under your state’s laws as a legal marriage, that is sufficient for immigration purposes. (29.Apr.2020)
