We would love to host/perform your Nikah at ICO!

The Islamic Center of Orlando is honored to offer Marriage (Nikah) services. We invite couples to schedule an appointment with our Imam and in line with Islamic guidelines, bring with them two Muslim witnesses. While it’s preferred that the parents of the groom and bride attend the ceremony, if this isn’t possible, their consent should be obtained in advance. For brides from the People of the Book (ahle-kitab, meaning of Christian or Jewish faiths), the Imam will introduce Islam prior to the ceremony.

The following are required for the Nikah ceremony:

  • Mahr (Dowry): The Mahr (dowry) amount between the groom and bride should be finalized before the ceremony.
  • Marriage License: A valid county-issued marriage license or official marriage certificate.
  • Witnesses: Two Muslim witnesses, each with valid identification.
  • Identification: Valid photo IDs for both the groom & bride (e.g. driver’s license, passport).

At the conclusion of the ceremony, a Marriage Agreement (Nikah Nama) will be presented to the couple.
