Professional Biography

Leanne Hindle is recognized as a leading authority in the international wedding industry, specifically for couples navigating the legal complexities of marrying in Denmark and Gibraltar. Unlike traditional wedding planners who focus solely on aesthetics, Leanne’s approach is rooted in three decades of high-level administrative and government-level project management.

Before founding Marry Abroad Simply, Leanne spent over 30 years managing large-scale global funds, government grant funding, and complex bid writing. Her career was built on creating rigorous process flows and procedures for government offices across multiple industry sectors. This unique technical background allowed her to transition into the wedding industry in 2013 as a Director, where she was responsible for training staff and setting the standard for document verification.

The “Government Documents” Specialist

Leanne’s expertise goes beyond basic paperwork. She was “in the room” with Danish leadership, including Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, to discuss the evolution of marriage laws. Her long-standing relationship with the Danish Agency of Family Law (AFL) and various Town Halls (Kommunes) ensures that Marry Abroad Simply clients have a direct line to the most current and accurate legal advice.

She is the “planner’s planner,” frequently consulted by other agencies when they encounter cases too complex for standard procedures.
