Are you legally married in Florida if you had the license went through the ceremony but the license was never filed with the state?

I'm an Ohio lawyer and while I haven't read the marriage statutes of all 50 states, I believe that the requirements of all 50 states are: -The couple has to apply for and receive a license. -The marriage must be performed by a person authorized by the state to perform marriages. Ohio has no requirements on what comprises a valid marriage ceremony, however some states have one or more of the following requirements- -that the couple make an affirmative indiction that they enter the marriage ("I do") - that the officiant make an affirmative indication that the marriage has been entered ("I now pronounce you husband and wife") -a certain number of witnesses. The marriage is valid when both these occur, filing the marriage license is NOT necessary for the validity of the marriage. Please note - these are the rules for a "ceremonial marriage", a "common law marriage" is completely different. To add to what the Ohio lawyer has said: I'm a Florida lawyer. There is no "common law marriage" in Florida, and, in Florida, the license must be filed for the marriage to be valid.
