Marriage License Requirements for Florida

<h1>Marriage License Requirements for Florida</h1>Author: <a title="Robert Cohen" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/robert-cohen/5558.htm">Robert Cohen</a> Getting married in Monroe County can be as easy or as difficult as you wish to make it. 
 
 There are some basic requirements and fees that have to be dealt with before getting married here. Even though each county in the State of Florida has it's own fees, you can get your license anywhere in the State including the Monroe County Court House, and they are good for any other county in the state. 
 
 
 LICENSE FEE The current fee in Monroe County, Florida for your marriage license is $88.50 payable directly to the Monroe County licensing authority. 
 
 You must have a picture ID such as a driver's license or passport, together with proof of previous divorces if applicable. 
 
 
 LICENSE WAITING PERIOD In Florida, you can get married the same day you purchase your marriage license and there is no residency requirement. If you are a Florida Resident, then there is a three day waiting period. 
 
 
 MONROE COUNTY COURT HOUSE Locally, pick up your License at Clerk of the Court, Monroe County Court House, 500 Whitehead Street, Key West, Florida 33030. Open M - F 8:30-4:30, closed holidays, phone 305-294-4641. Directions to the court house: 500 Whitehead Street Take U.S. 1 South on Truman, right on Whitehead, located at mile marker zero. 
 
 
 MARRIAGE LICENSE REQUIREMENTS The license requirements are that both parties must be 18 years of age or older, or 16 with parental consent. 
 
 License requirements state that there is no blood test, and no waiting period for Non-Florida Residents. If you are divorced or widowed, the date and/or certificate of divorce or death is necessary. If Your divorce is less then six months ago, you will need to bring your divorce papers. 
 
 So, with all that said and and done, getting married in Key West is one of the most desired locations in the entire United States. 
 
 Because the island is so small, and also because there are so few good places to have an outdoor wedding, it is well advised to hire a wedding planner such as the services provided by The Whole Nine Yards Wedding Planners as they can give you everything you desire for a truly unforgettable experience.
