Frequently Asked Questions

Do both me and my partner need to pay for the course?

No! The single $14.49 enrollment fee covers both partners. You only pay once per couple. You can complete the self-paced coursework together or log in from separate devices. When you finish, individual Certificates of Completion are generated for each partner at no extra charge to present to your Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court.

Will this certificate be accepted for a same-sex marriage license?

Yes, absolutely. Same-sex marriage is fully recognized in Florida, and because Kristen Franzen is an authorized clinical provider (FL LMHC #MH22317), our Certificate of Completion is federally and state-mandated to be accepted by all 67 County Clerks. It guarantees your $25 discount and waives the 3-day wait without exception.

How long does this online course take?

Florida Statute § 741.0305 strictly requires a minimum of 4 hours of premarital education. The course is self-paced online, meaning you can pause and resume whenever you wish. Once 4 hours of total coursework are logged, your official state certifications will unlock immediately for PDF download.

What do we bring to the Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court?

Both partners must appear together in person at any Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court office and present:

  • Valid Photo ID: Driver’s License, State ID, Passport, or Military ID.
  • Social Security Numbers: Both applicants must provide their SSN.
  • Course Certificates: Your printed Certificates of Completion from Cadenza Counseling.
  • Discounted License Fee: The reduced fee of $61.00 (saving $25.00).
