Book a registrar

A wedding ceremony tailored to you

Book a private registrar

Have you already found the perfect location for your wedding day celebration? Choose the time and location for your wedding ceremony yourself - in or around Copenhagen - and have exactly the wedding day that you are dreaming of.

You can book a registrar from the City of Copenhagen to perform your wedding ceremony on exactly the date and the location of your choice - even outside Copenhagen.

For example, you can be married in your garden or house, on a boat, in a restaurant or perhaps in the place you met for the first time.

The registrar can also make a personal speech for you if you wish.

Contact the Wedding Office to hear more about how you can plan your unique wedding ceremony - exactly like you wish it to be.

How to book a private registrar

To book a private registrar, you must first apply for a certificate of marital status.

If you apply through your municipality of residence, you can choose "book a registrar" in the form. Once your application has been approved, the Wedding Office will contact you to arrange the details of your ceremony.

If you apply through the Agency of Family Law, you must contact the Wedding Office yourself once your application has been approved.

Please note: The option to book a registrar for a ceremony outside of City Hall is very popular. Thus, the Wedding Office cannot guarantee that you can book a registrar on the date that you wish. Therefore, it is recommended that you apply for your certificate of marital status as early as possible.
