One of the most common questions couples ask is: “How quickly can we get married in Denmark?” The answer is often much faster than people expect.
At Marry Abroad Simply, we specialise in helping international couples arrange fast, legally recognised weddings in Denmark. In many cases, once your marriage licence has been approved by the Danish Agency of Family Law, we can arrange your wedding ceremony in under two weeks. Where registrar availability allows, some couples are married in as little as 48 to 72 hours after licence approval.
The biggest factor affecting timescales is usually how quickly the required documents can be gathered and submitted. As soon as you contact us, we will explain exactly what documents are needed and guide you through the process step-by-step. The faster the paperwork is sent over, the faster we can begin arranging your wedding.
The one stage we cannot directly control is the approval process carried out by the Danish Agency of Family Law (Familieretshuset). This is why couples who need to marry quickly should begin the process as soon as possible.
Many couples come to Denmark because they are facing tight deadlines or personal circumstances that make speed important. This may include visa expiry dates, pregnancy, military deployment, illness, work commitments, or simply wanting to avoid long waiting times in their own country.
Our Copenhagen Wedding Without Waiting Service is designed specifically for couples who want a fast, straightforward wedding abroad without unnecessary stress. The service includes support throughout the entire process, including document guidance, communication with the Danish authorities, arranging the ceremony, witnesses, international marriage certificates, and ongoing assistance from our experienced wedding planners.
Marriage certificates are issued immediately after the ceremony and are legally recognised worldwide. Certificates are available in English, German, Danish, Spanish and French.
We are proud to have a proven track record helping couples marry quickly and smoothly in Denmark. If you are considering getting married abroad and want to understand your options and possible dates, simply contact our team.
