When you begin planning your destination wedding in Punta Gorda/Englewood Beach, here’s what you need to know:

  • As an out-of-state visitor, your wedding license will be issued instantly and is good for 60 days
  • Both members of the couple must apply for the license in person, at either the County Administration Building in Port Charlotte or the Justice Center in Punta Gorda
  • A boat wedding must be conducted in Florida waters; if you use a charter company, they’ll ensure the location. The captain may even be available to perform the ceremony!

A wedding day is one of the most important in anyone’s life, and we’re always honored when a couple decides to spend that day in Punta Gorda/Englewood Beach.
