Completing the marriage license is the task that gives a wedding officiant the title “Officiant.” We are making a marriage “officially” legal. In order to be legally married and have the legal rights and privileges of marriage, you need to have a marriage license. The marriage license for a service in the Rainbow Wedding Chapel should be from any county in the State of Florida. Once you have the marriage license, it needs to be completed by a person who officially meets the requirements of Florida to do so – usually an Ordained Minister, Judge, Justice of the Peace, or similar. Obtaining a marriage license just means you are allowed to marry. By completing the marriage license, you are choosing to actually marry and enter into the legal contract.
HOWEVER, you can skip this if you take an online course. We highly recommend taking the Florida Premarital Class. This class gives you several benefits:
Have a look at Dr. Liliana Wolf’s Florida Premarital Course, then come back and book your wedding nuptials at the Rainbow Wedding Chapel!
Each state has requirements as to who can sign a marriage license and how they must legally “marry” the couple. Part of the requirements usually includes a wedding ceremony. How big or small your ceremony depends on what you want. If a religious leader is marrying you they may require you to perform a religious ceremony. A judge or a professional wedding officiant may simply ask you if you are sure you want to enter in the marriage and have you give your verbal consent. Traditionally, the answer is “I do.” But I always say “anything in the affirmative will work.” Sometimes the answer is “heck yeah!
We work with the couple to provide personalized vows, vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, beach weddings and LGBTQ (Same-Sex) weddings. We help to make your special day perfect.
Traditionally, if the wedding officiant is a minister and marrying you in a church they will lead your wedding rehearsal. It’s a church service so it’s already organized. It’s done the same way every time.
Non-religious wedding officiants also organize wedding parties and lead rehearsals pretty much the same way a minister of a church does. The only difference is they use their wedding ceremony script as a guide for what happens during the ceremony and practice that at the rehearsal.
Wedding Officiants and Notaries are listed on the main menu with their direct line and email address. Complete the CONTACT FORM for inquires and free consultations.
