Last Updated: 1/20/2026

From the sandy shores of Boca Raton to the vibrant communities of West Palm Beach, couples in Palm Beach County are discovering that an approved 
Florida premarital course is more than just a checkbox—it’s a smart investment.

In just four hours online, you’ll strengthen your relationship, save money on your marriage license, and ditch the three-day waiting period.
Here are the top reasons Palm Beach couples are enrolling today.

1. Keep $25 in Your Wedding Budget

Florida law lets couples who complete a state-approved premarital course reduce their marriage license fee from $86 to $61.
When you pay $14.49 for our online course, you end up with a net savings of $10.51—while gaining invaluable insights into your future together.
(See Florida Statutes §741.0305 for official details.)

2. Skip the Mandatory 3-Day Wait

Normally, Florida residents must wait three days between obtaining a license and walking down the aisle. By presenting your certificate of completion at your appointment, you can marry the same day you apply. Palm Beach County offers convenient, appointment-only service—check the Clerk’s Marriage License page for locations, hours, and instructions.

  • Communicate needs and listen with empathy
