What is a Ceremony Upgrade Service?

Here you have the opportunity to upgrade from a ‘standard’ ceremony at Copenhagen City Hall.

If you’re hoping to get married sooner than the ‘standard’ availability at this town hall will allow, then this additional ceremony service will work perfectly for you.

Our Private Registrar Service offers you a ceremony outside of the standard wedding ceremony appointments at the City Hall which are sometimes booked up, weeks or even months in advance.

By hiring a registrar,

– you will have more chance of getting married on the date you wish, at shorter notice.

– You can have a half an hour ceremony instead of 7 minutes (Only with Registrar Private Plus)

– Same day documentation presentation (except for Saturdays)

We can only check availability and book your registrar once we have your application approval from the Danish Government. It’s important to note that private registrars can become booked up too. This is why we can’t guarantee specific dates. We recommend being flexible by a couple of days on either side.

How is it different from a standard town hall wedding at the City Hall?

At Copenhagen City Hall, standard wedding appointments are between 11:00 and 14:00. Within this time, there are a set amount of appointments available. These appointments are free to book and Copenhagen City Hall is popular amongst couples so their free appointment times get booked up quickly.

If you’re flexible and book in good time it’s not a problem to be able to find a spot, but if you have a shorter time frame and you are less flexible, it can be difficult to find a free space.

Registrars can be hired to help you outside of these normal wedding hours so when all the standard wedding appointments are fully booked, you still have the chance of having your ceremony on that day.

We learned about GMiD through a friend’s recommendation. They had previously used your service and successfully completed their marriage process, which gave us great confidence from the beginning.

Choosing GMiD was truly one of the best decisions in our marriage journey. You provided us with a completely stress-free experience and guided us through every step of the process. Erma and the GMiD team were not only highly professional but also excellent communicators. They always responded within 24 hours and were consistently friendly, supportive, and understanding of our concerns and any challenges we faced along the way.

Thanks to GMiD’s clear guidance and efficient coordination, our marriage date was officially confirmed and beautifully arranged within just two months. Everything met our expectations, both in terms of the timeline and the Town Hall selection.

Odense Town Hall is a beautiful and cozy venue, perfect for couples seeking a peaceful yet charming place to get married. We had a wonderful experience staying in Odense and celebrating our special day there.

We are truly grateful to Erma and the entire GMiD team for making our marriage journey smooth, memorable, and stress-free.

We initially got stuck with the AFL process for about a month and decided to work with Getting Married in Denmark because we thought it might take a long time to resolve. Even though the issue was eventually sorted out on its own, the team was there to guide us through the paperwork and next steps whenever needed. They were kind, flexible, and always ready to answer our questions, which made the whole process feel so much easier and less stressful.

If we were to do it again, we would absolutely go with Getting Married in Denmark from the very beginning. They take care of all the administrative headaches with care and professionalism, and we felt genuinely supported throughout the whole process. Highly recommended!
