    When applying for a marriage license both spouses must be present. All Florida residents have a mandatory three-day waiting period before the marriage license becomes effective or have the option of attending a four-hour premarital course from a registered provider. The waiting period will be waived and the license will be discounted to $61 upon providing an original four-hour certificate of completion at the time application. Non-Florida residents are exempt from the three-day waiting period. The marriage ceremony must be performed on or after the effective date and within 60 days of the issuance of the license. Marriage license - $86.
