Title: Floridians - How do you get a copy of marriage licence from Florida?
Post by: Kelda on July 25, 2008, 12:42:22 pm

My sister is getting married next year.

Both herself and her fiance have been married before, Eian aghving been married in Florida.

He needs a copy of the marriage licence - which he'll need to get it from Florida.

Now he could get a lawyer to do this but it would cost about $400 - do any of you Floridians know an easy way to go about getting it themselves?

Thanks

Kelda

Hey there, Kelda!

Not a Floridian, but I have had to do this before with Massachusetts and it's essentially the same.  I think I have the info for you.  Here's a link:

It looks like certified copies can be obtained via phone or fax, but I imagine there will be a bit of logistics involved in figuring out how to pay for it - making sure the type of check or money order is acceptable, etc.

Good luck!
