Where we go

Ærøskøbing’s old town,
and the coast beyond

Ærøskøbing is small enough to walk end to end, and almost every corner of it photographs beautifully. These are the two places I return to with every couple, with the harbour and the open coast never more than a few minutes away.

The painted doors and cobbled lanes of Ærøskøbing’s old town are a two minute walk from the ceremony, and they carry the day’s story into every portrait.

Denmark’s wedding island

Getting married on Ærø

Ærø has welcomed couples from all over the world since 2008. The paperwork is simple, the ceremony is short and warm, and the whole island feels made for a wedding day. Here is how it works.

FYNSHAV SØBY
Fynshav45 minutes from Aabenraa
About an hourThe electric ferry, several crossings a day
Søby, Ærø20 minutes to Ærøskøbing
01

The ceremony

Ærøskøbing town hall, or one of the island’s official outdoor spots. The municipality’s wedding team offers more than 200 dates a year, weekdays with select Saturdays, and the ceremony itself is short, usually about ten minutes.

02

Getting there

I take the ferry from Fynshav, about an hour across calm water. Couples coming through Funen sail from Svendborg instead. Book your crossing ahead, especially in summer.

03

The paperwork

Handled online through Familieretshuset before you travel. If you need witnesses, ask the town hall when you book, arrangements vary. My guide to a civil wedding in Denmark covers the whole process.

04

No agency needed

Many Ærø weddings are sold as agency packages. You do not need one to have a photographer there. You can book me directly, and every price is open on this page.

What couples say

Couples say it
better than I can

We had such a wonderful experience. Benjamin made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Incredibly friendly, detail-oriented, and he really takes the time to make sure everything feels right.

ShairaGoogle Review

From planning to the shoot to post-processing, everything was so easy and top-quality. Benjamin guided us through every pose, made us feel relaxed and natural. The photos were beautifully edited, polished but still so real.

Micah CarpoGoogle Review

Benjamin was professional, attentive, and incredibly talented. He captured both the big moments and the quiet in-between ones that truly tell the story of the day. The photos came out beautifully. Natural, timeless, and full of emotion.

Questions

Questions about a wedding
on Ærø

By ferry. From Jutland and Germany the route is Fynshav to Søby, about an hour, and I sail that one with you. From Funen it is Svendborg to Ærøskøbing. Book your crossing ahead, especially for summer dates.

Short. Usually about ten minutes at Ærøskøbing town hall. Which means every moment carries weight, and it is worth being present for all of it.

Yes. The municipality offers official outdoor ceremony spots around the island, from the beach to the harbour. It is one of the reasons couples choose Ærø over a mainland town hall.

Two witnesses are required. If you need them, ask the town hall when you book, arrangements vary by date. I can also stand in as one of your witnesses if needed.

A flat €329 on top of any package. It covers the ferry and my full day on the island. It is charged upfront together with the €49 reservation fee, so €378 secures your date, and that amount is non-refundable.

No. Agencies handle paperwork and planning for couples who want that, and they do it well. But you do not need one to book a photographer. You can book me directly, and my prices are open on this page.

Island weather changes fast, and I plan for it. Overcast light is often beautiful for photographs, and Ærøskøbing’s lanes give shelter when the wind picks up. We adapt the route on the day.
