Our Marriage!
Finally, after multiple postponements, we are getting married on Monday 30 December in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The Marriage Ceremony
We are schedule to get married at 10.10 am on Monday 30 December at Copenhagen City Hall. It's a 21 minute walk from the Tivoli Hotel where most people are staying, or 7 minutes by car.
Accommodation
Most people are staying at the Tivoli Hotel, which is also known as the Tivoli Hotel and Congress Centre. You can get to the hotel by taxi or pubic transport, see here for an explanation of transport options. The hotel has a swimming pool, so don't forget your costumes. You do not need to book the swimming pool. The hotel can organise massages but I don't suppose they will be cheap.
Tivoli Gardens
The wedding lunch will take place in Tivoli Gardens, which is one of the main attractions in Copenhagen.. There is an entrance fee for Tivoli Gardens but 1 free entry in included with the hotel package for those staying at the Tivoli Hotel. If you want to go a second time, you need to pay.
