Every year hundreds of foreign couples choose to get married in Denmark. But why do they choose Denmark for their overseas wedding? Let’s face it, when it comes to beautiful wedding locations in Europe, there’s a lot of competition out there. It’s true that Denmark is beautiful, happy and serene, vibrant yet remote, romantic yet wild and really welcoming. Everything you could want from a country hosting your wedding. But it is also because Denmark is the easiest country in Europe to get married in.
Our authorities in Denmark believe that there should be no borders and no restrictions when it comes to love. And that all couples who wish to marry and legally can, should be allowed to get married in Denmark regardless of their religion, nationality or gender. Whilst Denmark is proud to be a very progressive country us Danes are also old-fashioned romantics at heart.
Danish marriage laws, the bureaucracy, documentation, and processes involved are simpler than any other European country. The list of the documents required for getting married in Denmark is very simple. And traditional Danish weddings see wedding ceremonies take place in Town Halls across Denmark, and we even provide witnesses for you if you need them. Ceremonies can be conducted in Danish, English or German and you are given your marriage certificate there and then so there’s no waiting around. Your marriage certificate is written out in Danish, English, German, Spanish or French.
This minimal no fuss approach to paperwork ensures that you can get on with enjoying your wedding day without being bogged down with administration and formalities.
Overseas couples started to be drawn to getting married in Denmark as early as the 1960’s for this very reason. It’s a tradition we are very proud of and us Danes are always thrilled to see couples who have chosen our beautiful country for their overseas wedding. Which brings us to our next point.
