Express wedding
An express wedding is neither complicated nor an elaborate affair. You decide to what extent your wedding ceremony is to be celebrated.
If you want a short and private or maybe even a secret ceremony, we are ready to help you with it.
The wedding ceremony takes about 20-30 minutes.
You can choose to get married at Det Gamle Ting- og Arresthus in Esbjerg, Det Gamle Rådhus in Ribe or somewhere else in Esbjerg Municipality.
On this page Procedure, you can read more about which papers to fill out and submit.
We will process your request for marriage as soon as possible, and you will receive a response from us within approximately two weeks.
