Are you legally married in Florida if you had the license went through the ceremony but the license was never filed with the state?
I'm an Ohio lawyer and while I haven't read the marriage statutes of all 50 states, I believe that the requirements of all 50 states are: -The couple has to apply for and receive a license. -The marriage must be performed by a person authorized by the state to perform marriages. Ohio has no requirements on what comprises a valid marriage ceremony, however some states have one or more of the following requirements- -that the couple make an affirmative indiction that they enter the marriage ("I do") - that the officiant make an affirmative indication that the marriage has been entered ("I now pronounce you husband and wife") -a certain number of witnesses. The marriage is valid when both these occur, filing the marriage license is NOT necessary for the validity of the marriage. Please note - these are the rules for a "ceremonial marriage", a "common law marriage" is completely different. To add to what the Ohio lawyer has said: I'm a Florida lawyer. There is no "common law marriage" in Florida, and, in Florida, the license must be filed for the marriage to be valid.

The answer depends on the marriage laws your jurisdiction.A marriage license is required for a valid civil marriage in ever state in the United States and most other Western countries. However, nine U. S. states still recognize common law marriage to some degree. In that case there would be no license issued, no ceremony and no official record of the marriage.Some countries may not require a marriage license. In that case, as long as the marriage is valid in that country it will be recognized as a valid marriage in the United States.
