It wouldn't be completely legal. It would have to then be done properly in front of a civil celebrant, or minister etc. As far as I know you also need a marraige licence, not sure how you obtain one, and you have to sign a marraige certificate after the ceremony, which makes the whole thing official, provided the wedding was conducted within the bounds of the laws governing the location it took place in.
So to put it simply, no, they couldn't officially, but people could make a commitment to marraige, which is little more than an engagement, really.

Well, I've seen it on TV -- usually the husband was in a war zone, so they had to get married over the phone. It involved a lot of witnesses and proxies and things, so I think it is possible.
But unless one person is in the middle of a war, if a partner can't make time to come home for a wedding, what does this say about the marriage??

There must be an insertion of the penis into the vagina for it to be a marriage, because that is what a marriage is, Adam and Eve did not have some preacher saying blah, blah, blah.
To marry some one there must be an insertion and a reciprocal that joins the 2 together...Like when the space shuttle docks to the Intl. Space Station, then that is like a marriage...Civil Legal Unions can marry you to a dog if you want, but that legal document is useless and does not render a true marriage, It is just more legal mumbo jumbo...
consummation:
1398, "completion," from com- "together" + summa "sum, total," from summus "highest." Sense of "completion of a marriage (by sexual intercourse)" is c.1530. Consummate (adj.), of persons, is from 1643

I know marriage by proxy is possible in some parts of the world, so maybe they're now able to include the absent party via modern communication. :-)

Hahah.
I think that's silly,and it wont be either.
Its not possible.
What if a boy wanted to marry a girl and he married her sister who had the same voice on the phone.?

I remember hearing about a guy who got married from space. I think. It would make it awfully hard to kiss the bride though.

I'm not sure...I am sure that it has been done before. It may be something that is done when someone is either sick and dying far away from their loved one, or maybe something that is done when the situtation is very urgent...
...good luck finding answers! this one's a toughy! :)

Well you need to sign a marriage certificate and have a witness I believe so I don't think so.
It's possible to say your "I do's" over the phone, however to make it official I think it needs to be in person.
