The Mayday Service

Questions? Don't hesitate to ask, it's what we are here for!

We have 2 Mayday Services available depending on your situation and what you need help with. 

The Light Mayday Service is for those couples who have already received their approval but would like to move their wedding to a different town hall than the one stated on the approval. 

The Full Mayday Service is for those couples who have applied to get married in Denmark but are now stuck in the AFL’s system, are yet to receive an approval and need help with what to do next.

With both of these services we will take over as your POA (Power of Attorney), liaise with the AFL on your behalf and you will have the full support of our Wedding Day Team once your wedding date is booked. Meaning peace of mind moving forwards, whatever your situation. 

You can read more in-depth information about exactly what each service includes below.

From legal requirements to venue selection, and paperwork assistance to ceremony planning, we provide comprehensive support for a seamless and memorable experience. Explore our services and let us help make your dream a reality.

LIGHT MAYDAY SERVICE

€190

This service is for those couples who have already submitted their application to the AFL, have received an approval, but no longer want to get married at the town hall they specified on the application and would like to choose a different town hall. 

This may be for logistical reasons, the town hall does not have the date you want or, you simply decided you want to get married somewhere else. 

However, you are not sure how to change from the town hall you originally selected and need help. Don’t worry, we will do this for you!

  • We will inform you of the best available alternative town hall options based on your specific needs, their current availability, location etc
  • You sign the POA so that we can take over the handling of your file transfer with the AFL
  • We will liaise with the AFL on your behalf to initiate the file transfer process to the new town hall of your choice
  • The AFL will inform us once your file has been transferred to the newly selected town hall

  • We contact the town hall of your choice and check for the up to date availability*
  • We book the ceremony at your selected town hall
  • We keep updated with the town hall in case any changes might occur

APOSTILLE SERVICE (Add-On)

+€250

This is a service we provide after your wedding in Denmark.

There is no time frame on when you can take our Apostille Service; it can be taken immediately after your wedding or years after.

It is for those couples who will be using their wedding with their respective governments after their wedding, e.g. to register the marriage or to apply for a spousal visa, and will need that extra layer of ‘legalisation’ on their marriage certificate.

We do not have to have helped you with your wedding in Denmark for you to take this service.

  • You send your marriage certificate/s to our Apostille team (we will give you information on how to do this)
  • Once we receive your certificate/s we will then hand deliver them to the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs
  • The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will check the information on your certificates after which they will affix the Apostille ‘stamp’ onto the back of your certificate/s
  • We will then return your certificate/s back to you at an address of your choice* via a tracked courier service

 

*The Apostille Service fee only covers the return to one address. An extra fee is incurred to cover the courier costs back to 2 separate addresses.
