- The displayed workflow includes two witness attestations, a verifier step, and a downloadable record with QR verification.
Field notes
The page lays out five stages—begin, attest, preserve, verify, connect—and says each union record is confirmed by two witnesses, who can respond through a private link without creating accounts. It describes attaching photos, letters, receipts, and recordings, then linking later records into a Legacy Tree; the downloadable record is presented as printable and QR-verifiable. The site explicitly says this is not a government marriage certificate.
