Alexander and Thi Yen in Copenhagen harbourWe walked it ourselves, and today we do for other couples what we wished for back then: plan every case individually, catch every pitfall before it costs weeks.

We're Alexander and Thi Yen. Before Danish Wedding existed, we wanted to get married ourselves, as a binational couple with documents from several countries. Court exemptions, apostilles from different consulates, certified translations. Month by month the stack grew, without us getting any closer to a marriage certificate. Then a friend told us about the Danish route.
In Denmark we found the solution, and that one case became the starting point for everything that followed. What began as our own wedding turned into a precise study of the Danish process: every quirk of Familieretshuset, every apostille rule per country of origin, every document pitfall a binational DACH couple can encounter. What was a problem for us back then is our craft today. We know the pitfalls before they appear.
Danish Wedding was born from that knowledge. Today we do for other couples what we wished for ourselves back then: read each case individually, plan each unusual constellation early, catch each pitfall before it costs weeks. Personal, compact, no call centre: every couple has a direct line to one of us, every application is read by a human, every WhatsApp lands in a real inbox.
„Bureaucracy is nothing compared to a 'yes'. But we'll handle it for you anyway, turning months into weeks.“Alexander and Thi Yen
Getting married abroad shouldn't mean a second job on top of planning a wedding. Our mission is simple: take the parts of a Danish marriage that trip couples up — eligibility rules, country-specific document requirements, translation and apostille logistics — and manage them so thoroughly that you only have to show up, sign, and celebrate. We do this because we went through it ourselves, and because we know exactly how much relief lives inside a clear plan.
Most of what we know didn't come from a manual — it came from standing at the same counters our clients stand at, waiting on the same documents, and learning which shortcuts are real and which ones cost you a week later.
From your first message to the day you hold your marriage certificate, you're speaking with Alexander and Thi Yen — not a rotating support desk. We coordinate translators, apostille services, and legal specialists on your behalf, but the relationship stays personal throughout.
Thi Yen reviews each submission with the same attention she'd want applied to her own paperwork, catching mismatched dates, missing stamps, or formatting issues before an authority ever sees them.
You know the cost before you commit, and it doesn't move once your case is underway.
We reply on WhatsApp, Monday through Sunday, because document questions rarely wait for office hours.
Tell us about your situation — nationalities, prior marriages, current documents — and we'll tell you honestly whether the Danish route fits, and what it will involve.
We map out exactly which documents you need, where each one comes from, and in what order, tailored to your specific country combination rather than a generic checklist.
We coordinate certified translations, apostilles, and any required exemptions, keeping you updated at each stage rather than leaving you to chase status updates yourself.
We help you secure a wedding date and municipality, and guide you through what to expect on the day itself, whether that's in Copenhagen, Tønder, on Ærø or elsewhere in Denmark.
Once you're married, we can advise on getting the marriage recognised back home, so the certificate you worked for actually holds up wherever you live.
Behind Danish Wedding, it's the two of us: Alexander and Thi Yen. For authorities, law and translation we work with a team of specialists; and we coordinate apostilles, translations and authority communication for you. You always deal directly with the two of us: no call centre, no tickets. We know your case in detail, reply to you directly, and walk you to your wedding without detours.
