Use the lighthouse on the Baltic Sea for a romantic wedding
Lovers who are looking for an original and romantic wedding location should take a closer look at the many navigation marks along the Baltic Sea. In the lighthouse, high above the sea, couples can form a marriage alliance in a very special way. Especially people who have a deep relationship with water will remember this day for a long time.
Interesting facts about the wedding on the lighthouse
- Ask as early as possible whether your desired date is possible. Most weddings are only possible on certain days of the week and / or during the holiday season. Lighthouse weddings are also very popular. To make an appointment, contact the registry office of the municipality to which the sea mark belongs.
- Report your wedding at the registry office of your place of residence and indicate in which lighthouse you would like to get married. To register, you will also need identification documents, a certified copy of your birth register and, in the case of previous marriages, copies from the marriage register. If witnesses are to be present, register them now as well, as a rule you can no longer name them afterwards.
- If you want to get married on a lighthouse, you should be reasonably fit - to get to the wedding room you have to climb up to 140 steps. In addition, you must not suffer from a fear of heights. After wedding there is also the possibility of taking wedding photos on the viewing platform.
- Ask about special rituals and ceremonies that will be performed for you during or after the wedding ceremony. In Warnemünde, for example, it is possible to tie the couple together with a sailor's knot. But even without such extra event highlights, the wedding on a lighthouse is something special, because the navigation mark helps ships avoid dangerous cliffs. This symbolism can easily be transferred to marriage.
- Book accommodation for the guests and ballrooms in good time, because the regions on the Baltic Sea are popular with holidaymakers all over the world and booked out early. Especially if you're planning to get married during the holiday season, make sure to book early.
