How long does it take to receive a marriage license after the wedding?

We were married 06/13/10.  Reviews to follow - Crystal Fielding Rocks!!

Married knotties - how long do we have to wait to receive the marriage certificate.  We have been married 23 days.  On the Broward County courts website it shows we applied but that's all.

Thanks for all your help and support!

    It took ours less than a month but we got married in Miami Dade County~ You can call the clerk of courts and ask ~ worse case scenerio you might have to go down to the clerks office and pick up a copy.  Do you know when your officiant sent it in?  Our Reverend took it to the clerk the next day.  Maybe yours was mailed in?

    Ours was waiting for us when we got back from our honeymoon. So we got it in less than 2 weeks. But we are also in Miami Dade County and our officiant went to the clerk on the Monday after our wedding to handle it for us. I would suggest calling or going there like pp said as well.

    Thanks for the help.  I went to the courthouse in Deerfield Beach and they said it takes 4 - 6 weeks after they receive it for Broward County, in case anyone else wants to know.
