Wedding receptions at a royal palace or a palace garden pavilion
The Royal Family has celebrated romance for centuries by arranging wedding receptions steeped in pomp and pageantry in the royal palaces and gardens. You too can now hire the royal venues for your wedding reception.
Weddings at Kronborg, the magnificent Renaissance banqueting castle
Kronborg Castle was the setting for one of the happiest marriages in the history of the European royal family. Frederick II lived with the love of his life, Queen Sophie, at the castle at the end of the 16th century. Nobles from all over Europe came to attend sumptuous, all-night banquets in the castle’s magnificent ballroom.
