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.

In the State of Ohio, you apply for your marriage license from the Probate Court in the county where one of you are a resident. Once you have the license, it can be used anywhere in Ohio. If neither party is a resident of Ohio, there is a 5 day waiting period. The marriage certificate must be used within 60 days.
