Hi all,Im a UK bride getting married in Florida in six weeks, I hadnt even thought about a marriage licence until now! Can anyone let me know how to do it online, or if we need to do it when we get there where do we go and how long does it take>?Thanks

You might want to try the Clerk of Courts, here is the link for Orange County:http://orangeclerk.onetgov.net/faq/faq-marriagelicense.htm

to my knowledge you can't do it online.how early will you be down before the wedding? we got to orlando early b/c there's a 3 day waiting period for the license. we applied on Wednesday which i believe was the last possible day for a wedding taking place on a saturday.

Do you need a marriage license here in the US? You could probably just sign one in the UK when you get back home. I'm not sure how that works. The guests wouldn't know the difference.

There is a three day waiting period unless you have pre-marital counseling. They told H and I that we could have just had a note on letterhead from a therapist/ psychologist or clergymen. You may want to check into that a little more if you don't have 3 days. otherwise, Sarah had a good suggestion if that doesn't bother you.

There is a 3 day waiting period and you have to get it in person. I like Sarah's idea though.

I know up here in Duval County, the 3-day waiting period is waived for non-Florida residents. I'd assume other FL counties have the same rules. Here's some information I found (it doesn't matter what county you purchase the marriage license from): [url]http://www.duvalclerk.com/ccWebsite/MarriageLicense.department[/url]
