Denmark is already known across Europe as one of the easiest countries in the world to get married in. The laws are open and inclusive, the requirements are minimal, and the process is both fast and efficient. For couples coming from abroad, especially those who have struggled with complicated legal systems in their own country, Denmark offers a breath of fresh air. You don’t need to be a resident, you don’t need to go through long interviews or wait for months. You simply need the right documents and a bit of planning.
But while getting married in Denmark is already simple, there’s a way to make it even easier. With the help of an experienced wedding planner, the process becomes almost effortless. Instead of spending time researching which documents are required, trying to understand unfamiliar forms, or contacting local authorities, a wedding planner takes care of it all for you. That’s what turns an easy process into the easiest possible experience.
One of the most common reasons couples experience delays in the approval process is because of incorrect or incomplete documents. Requirements vary slightly depending on your nationality and marital history, and many people are unsure which papers they actually need. When you use a wedding planner, that uncertainty disappears.
You receive clear instructions tailored to your situation. No second-guessing, no miscommunication. Your planner will review everything before submitting it to the Danish Agency of Family Law to ensure nothing gets rejected or delayed. It’s not just very convenient, but also a guarantee that your application will be accepted as fast as possible.
Once your marriage has been approved by the authorities, the next step is to book your ceremony. For international couples, navigating the various options for town halls or registrars across Denmark can be a challenge. Each municipality has its own procedures and availability, and reaching out directly can be time-consuming.
A wedding planner already knows which town hall locations are available, which ones offer ceremonies in English or German, and how to secure your preferred date. Whether you want to get married at Copenhagen City Hall, on the island of Ærø, or in a private setting with a registrar sent to you, your planner will handle the communication and booking on your behalf. You simply choose the style and location that suits you.
After the ceremony, your marriage is legally valid in Denmark. But if you plan to register your marriage or use the certificate in your home country, you may need an apostille, an official legalisation stamp from the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is where many couples get confused or experience delays, especially if they don’t know how or where to request it.
With a wedding planner, this step is handled for you. They request the apostille on your behalf, make sure your marriage certificate is processed correctly, and send you the legalised version that’s ready to use. For couples planning to apply for visas or change legal status in another country, this step is essential — and far easier with expert help.
When working with a wedding planner, there’s only one thing you really need to focus on: your travel. You are responsible for getting to Denmark and deciding where you’ll stay while you’re here. Some couples prefer to handle their own accommodation, especially if they want to explore the country before or after the wedding. Others choose a package that includes overnight stays, making the entire experience even more seamless.
With a wedding planner at your disposal, handling everything else, you don’t need to worry about the authorities, the booking process, the legal steps, or the documents. You just need to arrive in Denmark, enjoy your wedding day, and leave with an internationally recognised marriage certificate.
