Prague is very popular among people who want to get married, mainly because of cheap flights and beer, but do not let it push you away.
Prague is still a place with a rich culture, where they offer fabulous places to the bride and groom, in which you can say “I agree”, from beautiful Gothic churches and castles to amazing boat cruises on the Vltava River.
If you have planned everything and decided, then you should arrive in Prague 2-3 days before the wedding to complete the paperwork. Please note that local government offices are only open on Monday and Wednesday for registration of legal documents. There are several options available for people who want to get married in the ceremony: Civil ceremonies are legally binding and can only be held in a few selected places, such as the Old Town Hall (on Old Town Square) and the New Town Hall (in Charles Square).
There are also many places in castles outside of Prague available for holding your civic ceremony as well. You are required by law to have at least two witnesses. The ceremony will be held in the Czech Republic. If neither the bride nor the groom speaks Czech, then they are required by law to have the official permission of the court translator.
Religious ceremonies - Catholic and Protestant - are legally binding in the Czech Republic, and there is no need to attend a civil ceremony first. Religious ceremonies can be held in many different churches in Prague, and even in several places in castles outside Prague!
Most priests in the Czech Republic also speak English, so your ceremonies will most likely just take place in English. For most ordinary people, organizing such an event is a rather difficult task, therefore we advise you to turn to the services of a wedding organizer - in this case you will receive a well-planned ceremony without surprises and problems! Be happy!
