Get married at Trolltunga!

This summer (2023) you can get married at Trolltunga. If you are interested, be sure to mark Friday the 4th of August on your calendar, because that is the day Ullensvang Municipality has set aside for weddings at this dramatic venue. You also need to register your good intentions with the municipality.

Guided hike with an overnight stay

You can make your wedding day and night extra special by taking a guided hike with one of the two guide companies, Trolltunga Active or Trolltunga Adventures. This includes an overnight stay at their mountain camp near Trolltunga.

What could be more perfect for your wedding night than an exotic stay in the mountains! At the luxurious camp, there will be good dining, with ingredients and beverages from local producers. If the weather gods are kind, you can enjoy a beautiful sunset while sitting around the crackling fire. And in the morning, we’ll have breakfast ready.

If they have any special wishes, please contact the guide company directly. They will do their utmost to make your dreams come true!

Your wedding certificate

You must register and submit a valid preliminary wedding certificate documenting that there are no obstacles to your marriage. Norwegian couples are usually able to obtain these mandatory certificates quickly. If either or both of you are foreign citizens, you should expect this to take up to five or six weeks – so plan ahead. To apply for this certificate, please contact the Norwegian Tax Administration (Skatteetaten).

For all couples, it is important to keep in mind that this preliminary certificate, which is an absolute requirement in Norway, is valid for only four months from the date of issue. Please keep this in mind so that you time your application the Tax Administration correctly.

Naturally, we can only marry a limited number of couples on this one day, so be sure to sign up early. It’s first come, first served.

Regarding this special day

We look forward to Friday the 4th of August and to meeting the couples who want to be part of this very special day.

We hope for a sunny, warm summer day, but we cannot make any promises. All participants – couples and wedding guests – must take into account the possibility of bad weather, and dress accordingly. That also means good, solid footwear. It’s a long hike to Trolltunga and back again!

Your wedding itself is free of charge. By that we mean that Ullensvang Municipality will not charge for the actual wedding ceremony. However, each couple is responsible for any additional expenses.

Roald Aga Haug, Mayor of Ullensvang Municipality, is looking forward to officiate at the upcoming weddings.

And last but not least: Thank you for allowing us to be a part or your wedding plans, and for your desire to get married at this incredibly beautiful venue in our municipality!
