Denmark has become a premier destination for US citizens seeking to marry abroad thanks to its streamlined process and minimal bureaucracy. With our carefully designed wedding packages, couples can enjoy a stress-free experience while focusing on what truly matters – celebrating their love. At Easy Weddings Denmark, we’ve helped countless American couples easily navigate the Danish marriage system, providing comprehensive support from application to ceremony. Our services cater to various preferences and budgets, ensuring every couple finds the perfect option for their special day in this beautiful Scandinavian country.
Why Choose Denmark?
Denmark stands out as an ideal wedding destination for international couples due to its efficient marriage system that eliminates unnecessary complications. The Danish approach to international marriages is refreshingly straightforward, with no residency requirements and significantly less paperwork than most countries. US citizens particularly appreciate the English-speaking staff, international recognition of Danish marriages, and the relatively quick processing times that make planning much easier. Denmark’s reputation as one of the happiest countries in the world adds a special charm to your wedding experience, creating the perfect backdrop for beginning your married life together.
The Power of Attorney Advantage
What truly sets Easy Weddings Denmark apart is our power of attorney service, which transforms the application process from potentially overwhelming to remarkably simple. By granting us power of attorney, you authorize our experienced team to handle the entire application process on your behalf. This means we complete all forms, submit required documents, and communicate directly with the Danish Agency of Family Law, saving you considerable time and eliminating the stress of navigating unfamiliar bureaucratic procedures. While you focus on planning your travel and celebration, we ensure all documentation meets legal requirements for a smooth approval process.

Apostille Legalization Service
Many US citizens find that after their Danish wedding, they need their marriage certificate to be recognized in other countries or for specific legal purposes. That’s why we offer a comprehensive Apostille legalization service for just 199€. An Apostille is a special certificate attached to your official document that verifies its authenticity internationally. This certification is recognized by all countries that are signatories to the Hague Convention, including the United States, making your Danish marriage certificate legally valid worldwide.
Our Apostille service includes handling the entire legalization process with the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ensuring your marriage certificate receives the proper authentication without you having to navigate the complex international bureaucracy. This service is particularly valuable for couples who need their marriage certificate for immigration purposes, property matters, or legal recognition in countries beyond the US and Denmark. By entrusting us with this crucial step, you ensure your marriage certificate will be accepted without question wherever your life together takes you.
Simplified Documentation Requirements
One of the most appealing aspects of getting married in Denmark as a US citizen is the streamlined documentation process. Unlike many international wedding destinations, Denmark does not require birth certificates, which significantly reduces the paperwork burden. Our team at Easy Weddings Denmark will guide you through the specific documents needed, which typically include:
- Valid passports with color copies of all pages (including blank ones)
- Legal entry documentation if applicable
- Certificate of marital status (though not always required for US citizens)
- Previous marriage documentation if relevant (divorce decrees or death certificates)
- Proof of residence if you live together outside Denmark (not more than four months old)
By working with us, you’ll receive clear guidance on exactly which documents apply to your specific situation, eliminating confusion and preventing unnecessary delays caused by incomplete applications.
The Application Process
Working with Easy Weddings Denmark makes the application process remarkably simple for US citizens. After selecting your preferred package, our expert team will guide you through document preparation, explaining exactly what you’ll need to provide. Once you grant us power of attorney, we take over the entire process:
- We complete your application with meticulous attention to detail
- We submit all required documents directly to the Danish Agency of Family Law
- We handle all correspondence with authorities on your behalf
- We ensure the administration fee is properly processed and registered
- We keep you updated throughout every stage of the application
The only element that requires your personal involvement is signing the Declaration of Truth, which we’ll prepare and guide you through. This streamlined approach prevents errors and delays while giving you peace of mind that professionals are handling your important documentation.
Planning Your Visit
Once your application receives approval, you can finalize your travel arrangements to Denmark with confidence. Many of our couples choose to extend their stay beyond the ceremony, exploring Copenhagen’s charming streets, visiting historic castles, or venturing to picturesque coastal towns. Depending on your selected package, we can provide recommendations for accommodations, restaurants, and activities that complement your wedding experience and turn it into a memorable vacation. Denmark’s compact size makes it ideal for exploring several destinations even during a short stay, allowing you to combine your wedding with a meaningful honeymoon experience.
The Wedding Day Experience
Your wedding day will be smooth and memorable with our careful planning and attention to detail. The ceremony typically takes place in a beautiful town hall or selected venue, conducted entirely in English for your convenience. Two witnesses will be required for the ceremony, though many of our packages include witness services if needed. After the brief but meaningful ceremony, you’ll receive your internationally recognized marriage certificate immediately, allowing you to celebrate your new status right away. Our team can also arrange post-ceremony celebrations, from intimate dinners to more elaborate receptions, depending on your preferences and chosen package.
After Your Wedding
The advantages of a Danish wedding continue even after the ceremony concludes. Your marriage certificate will be fully recognized in the United States without requiring additional validation or complicated procedures. For those who need their certificate to be recognized in multiple countries, our Apostille legalization service provides the international authentication necessary for worldwide recognition. Our team can guide any post-wedding considerations, including name change processes or documentation requirements for returning home as a married couple. We remain available to answer questions even after your wedding day, ensuring a smooth transition as you begin your married life together with valid, internationally recognized documentation.
