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.
