Where can you get married in Denmark?
Most couples marry at Copenhagen City Hall or at an open-air location of the Copenhagen wedding office. Other town halls can offer earlier dates, and the portraits can be anywhere from Nyhavn to Kronborg.
Ceremonies & portraits
Our favourite places
Open-air ceremonies
On selected days the Copenhagen wedding office marries couples outdoors, with exactly the same legal formalities as inside City Hall.
Town halls
Other Danish municipalities also marry international couples and can sometimes offer an earlier date. We find the town hall that fits your plans.
Nyhavn
The painted harbour is Copenhagen’s classic backdrop for wedding portraits, by bike, on foot or from a canal boat.
Helsingør & Kronborg
Kronborg Castle, the setting of Hamlet, stands by the sea in Helsingør, a short train ride north of Copenhagen.
Ærø island
Known as a wedding island, Ærø has colourful cottages, cobbled lanes and quiet beaches in the south Funen archipelago.
