Marriage license Laws in the state of Florida, here is what you
need to bring with you, and what you need to know about the Florida marriage
laws before filling out the Florida marriage license form.
In order to get married, you need to apply and receive a marriage
license. This is the document in your state that allows you to officially tie
the knot under the law. The rules for acquiring your marriage license varies
from state to state, so you should check with your city's marriage bureau at
your clerk of court's office to find out what your local rules are.
You'll typically need to
apply for your marriage license at least one month before your wedding
ceremony. You'll traditionally need to send in your birth certificates, tax
information, and other official documents. You don't, however, want to apply
for your marriage license too early. In some states, the licenses do expire, if
you don't get married within a few months.
When you apply for your license, you'll not only need a proof of
identification and age, will need to provide any information about previous
marriages, and will need to pay a nominal fee. You will also need to have a
witness when you sign the application, so plan on bringing your maid of honor
or best man with you. The bride will need to know what her married name will be
before she signs the marriage certificate. You'll have to write that name on
the application.
