Couples are getting married in Denmark – level 2

13-05-2025 15:00

Many people from around the world go to Denmark to get married because the process is fast and easy.

Judith and Ivan are from Germany and Uganda. They wanted to get married but had problems in Germany because of money and a visa. It was too expensive and slow, so they chose Denmark.

They picked the town of Ribe. They sent their documents online and got a reply in five days. Then they got a date for the wedding in just three weeks. They only needed passports and proof that they are a couple. The wedding was short and nice.

After the ceremony, they were husband and wife. Germany accepts marriages in Denmark, they are legally married now. They are very happy and will always remember their special day in Denmark.

Difficult words: visa (a document which says that you can travel or stay in a country for some time), reply (an answer), proof (something that shows or makes clear that something is true or real).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

How many days did it take for Judith and Ivan to receive a reply after submitting their documents online?
