Wedding at Amaliehaven | Copenhagen Wedding Photographer

admin — Tue, 01 Feb 2022 11:29:24 +0000

Working as a wedding photographer in Copenhagen allows me to get to know couples from all over the world. The reason so many foreigners travel to Denmark to tie the knot is because, in Denmark, there’s very little bureaucracy for those who want to get married, regardless of gender and nationality, and especially for EU citizens who want to marry people from non-EU countries.
One of the couples I loved meeting last year are these two in the photos. Diana and Fabien come from Czechia and decided to get married in Copenhagen last summer. Their civil wedding ceremony took place at Amaliehaven (Amalie Garden), a small park in central Copenhagen, between the waterfront and Amalienborg Palace. A really lovely wedding venue in Copenhagen: a green oasis in the heart of the city.

wedding ceremony at Amaliehaven

If you are getting married in Copenhagen, civil wedding ceremonies are usually held at the beautiful Copenhagen City Hall. But the municipality of Copenhagen also offers alternative wedding locations to those who wish to get married outdoors. Amager Strand, Bibliotekshaven, Byoasen, Amaliehaven. These are only a few options that couples can choose from. In this link of the Municipality of Copenhagen you can find out more about open air weddings.

After the quick wedding ceremony at Amaliehaven, the three of us walked to Amalienborg Palace, Nyhavn and some nearby places to do some wedding portraits. Copenhagen was full of Danish fans wearing their red jerseys because later that day Denmark would play Czech Republic in the UEFA-Euro quarter-finals. Our stop in Nyhavn was a little bit intimidating for Diana and Fabien, as as you can imagine, all bars and restaurants along the canal were packed with fans drinking since eleven in the morning. So as our lovely couple posed for the photographer, fifteen guys were shouting and singing in the background. Romantic, right? But despite the football chaos, our wedding photo session in Copenhagen was a success. Her stunning bouquet of roses and orchids from Holly Flower Studio added a special touch to the photos. The connection between these two was palpable and so beautiful to see and photograph. I’m so lucky to have had the opportunity to meet them and be chosen as their elopement photographer in Copenhagen.
Meeting amazing people from different places and cultures is what makes me love my job so much. Come get married in Denmark and let me document your special day!

Wedding in Stevns Klint | Copenhagen wedding photography

The Cambridge dictionary defines elopement as ” the act of leaving home secretly in order to get married”. This summer I had the opportunity to photograph many elopements in Stevns Klint. Just the bride and the groom, very romantic and intimate. For different reasons, couples decide to elope in Denmark: to avoid the stress of planning a big wedding; to not have to deal with all the opinions and different wishes from everyone around them; for financial reasons – many couples prefer to spend all that money on a nice trip or renovating their new home. Regardless of the reason for eloping, everyone agrees that having that special day just for themselves and no one else is freaking romantic!

Having said that, this was the only couple I photographed in Stevns Klint this year who decided not to elope. Instead, they brought about fifty guests from Germany with them.
Stevns is a great option for those looking for stunning nature. Besides, Stevns City Hall has more dates available for wedding ceremonies compared to Frederiksberg and Copenhagen City Hall. And you don’t necessarily have to get married at Stevns City Hall. You can have a registrar to accompany you to Stevns Klint, and have an open air wedding or a wedding in the old church, like Amir and Annett did. This link from the Municipality of Stevns will help international couples on how to get married in Stevns.

Stevns Klint unesco world heritage

In 2014, Stevns Klint became a UNESCO Wolrd Heritage Site. The reason is the fish clay layer in the cliff, that offers evidence of the impact of a meteorite about 65 million years ago, leading to the extinction of dinosaurs and half of life on Earth.
This is an absolutely beautiful and impressive place, with a breathtaking sea view. Amir and Annett couldn’t have chosen a better place to get married in Denmark. They also ordered the perfect weather for an open air wedding. After the civil wedding ceremony in the old church of Stevns Klint, we walked to a garden near the church where their friends arranged drinks and snacks.
After taking lots of group pictures with all their guests, it was time for a few wedding portraits and some time alone (well, not completely).

The whole day was a success, very well celebrated with family and friends. And I think I can speak for these lovebirds and say that sharing this day with so many special people was also freaking romantic! Whichever celebration suits you best, just enjoy it!
