Many couples want to get married abroad, or just want to get married in general. But potentially in their country of residency or citizenship, or sexual orientation it is not possible to gather the documents that are needed to produce to the government office charged with issuing a license.

If you are same sex in a country where being same sex is not legal it is very much problematic. Same with mixed religion couples. Or couples who need to get married abroad fast due to maybe a Military move, terminal illness, or pregnancy.

There are some countries where it is possible to get married abroad easily that finds a legal way around the documentation that is needed to get married.

Getting married in Denmark is one such option, where there are no marital status documents needed, no birth certificates needed, and the Danish Agency of Family law (Familieretshuset) issue licenses of marriage for couples to marry within a 4 month period in a Kommune in Denmark of their choosing. Usually the locations are chosen on the merit of availability and travel methods.

The marriage certificates are issued the same day by the registrar, are legally recognised worldwide and are International so are in English, German, Danish Spanish and French on the same certificate.

It is advised that you use a reputable wedding planner or Agency such as Marry Abroad Simply, as they have won multiple awards such as Best global Wedding Planning Service for International Destinations 2023 - Denmark, and also Global winner 2022 for the best wedding planners in Denmark & Gibraltar, and the Director Leanne Hindle was named Globally one of the top 50 best wedding and events planners of 2023.

You may wish to have the marriage certificates legalised with an Apostille, and the Hague convention guidelines can help with this.

If you wish to get married in Denmark have a look at a wedding ceremony in Copenhagen City Hall as it is a iconic venue that is easy to get to and close to the Copenhagen International Airport at Kastrup, and major train lines.
