If you’ve been researching how to get married in Florida, you’ve probably come across one of the biggest challenges couples face:
Getting the marriage license.
For years, this has been one of the main reasons couples choose to book with us at Elope to Orlando. Not because it’s complicated for us, but because it can be confusing and stressful for couples planning from out of state or overseas.
What Is the Florida Marriage License “In Absentia” Process?
In Florida, most couples are required to appear in person at a Clerk of Court office to apply for their marriage license. However, there is a lesser-known option that allows couples to complete the process without being physically present in Florida.
This is commonly referred to as the “in absentia” process.
It allows you to:
Apply for your marriage license remotely
Complete the required paperwork from home
Have everything ready before you arrive for your ceremony
For our couples, this has been a game changer.
Why Our Couples Love This Option
Over the years, we’ve helped hundreds of couples navigate this process as part of our all-inclusive elopement packages. It’s included at no additional cost, and it removes one of the biggest logistical headaches from the entire experience.
Instead of:
Taking time off to visit a Clerk’s office
Trying to figure out requirements on your own
Stressing about timelines and paperwork
You get a clear, guided process handled for you.
Simple. Efficient. Done right.
And honestly, that’s a big part of why our couples choose us.
