Best Answer

The Final Divorce Decree in esense nulls the Marriage License, so it does not need to be kept any longer than one feels necessary. In the divorce documents the fact is made that the union between the married couple is to be dissolved, so unless you want to keep it for nostalgic reasons, then it's ok to discard it. If there are kids involved in this divorce, they may wish to keep it for some reason.
