What you need to get married in Scandinavia varies from each
Scandinavian country to the next (other than basic documentation such as passports). Let's find out what you'll need depending on where you'd like to get married:
Denmark is one of the easiest destinations in Scandinavia to elope, as long as you have the (very uncomplicated) documentation required and can allow for a week or so to have all the papers processed. Get the details on
getting married in Denmark here.
Finland also makes it quite easy to elope there, but there is an official investigation that must be done, and you'll need a couple more documents than couples getting married in Denmark. To wed in Finland, take a look at the detailed
marriage requirements in Finland here.
Iceland differs a little from the other Scandinavian countries when it comes to getting married there. Your advantage here is that there's no waiting period, and no minimum length of stay for processing your marriage paperwork. Learn more about

Norway has similar marriage requirements to the rest of Scandinavia - and you can start the process from abroad so as to avoid a lengthy stay because of the paperwork. The
Norwegian marriage requirements can be viewed in detail here.
Sweden is a popular destination for couples wanting to get married in Scandinavia! The
marriage documentation needed in Sweden has a separate affidavit in it that you'll have to get notarized, though, so make sure to check out those requirements now.
