A little north of Miami, Fort Lauderdale offers a cheaper alternative for your ultimate Florida wedding. Vacation rentals along the canal and on the beach can be converted into a wedding venue with the help of the most divine decor. It is easy for out-of-state residents to get married in Florida since they are not restricted by a waiting period. However, if either partner is a Florida resident, they can choose to take the premarital preparation course or wait up to three working days for the marriage license to be issued. It also helps lower the 86 USD application fee. Once the license is issued, it is valid for up to 60 days. Vacation rentals in Fort Lauderdale allow couples to keep their family close before they embark on the next chapter of their lives.
