Agenda for the day
Wedding

Please arrive no later than 12:45.
Arrive well in advance, and remember that you must go through security checks when entering Oslo City Hall. The wedding room (Munchrommet) at Oslo City Hall has limited capacity. This means that parts of the bridal party will have to wait outside the city hall. After the ceremony, there will be a photo shoot outside the city hall.
Anyone who has the opportunity is most welcome to welcome the bride and groom when they come out after the ceremony (approximately 13:15). Please spread the word!
Balloons, soap bubbles, alcohol, or throwing rice, rose petals, or confetti are not permitted, both inside and outside the City Hall.

A regular Zone 1 bus ticket is valid on the ferry.
The ferry runs every half hour and takes 17 minutes.
When we arrive at Gressholmen, we will walk about 5 minutes to Gressholmen Kro. Please note that the path is a trail, which may make it difficult to walk in high heels.
There will be an aperitif on the outdoor terrace (the stage) at Gressholmen Kro from 15:00.
