The story
A castle garden minutes from Copenhagen
Bernstorff Slot stands in the historic Bernstorff Slotshave in Gentofte, just 9 kilometres from Copenhagen's Rådhuspladsen, within 60 hectares of green parkland. The castle's setting is around 260 years old, and its garden is open to the public for a walk. Guests can stay overnight in one of 23 rooms in and around the Kavalergaarden, and the castle also hosts conferences and celebrations of every kind.
For weddings, couples have the castle's main building or the Kavalergaarden exclusively, and the choice of hall depends on the number of guests. The Havesalen is the setting for a ceremony, while summer weddings can hold the vows outdoors on the terrace overlooking Bernstorffsparken or in the Kavalergaarden. A tailored package combines ceremony and reception, and tables are dressed with silver candelabras and flowers from Bering House of Flowers. The kitchen makes everything from scratch, pickling, preserving, marinating and smoking, and uses organic produce. A wedding with an overnight stay includes the couple's night as a gift from the castle, a generous breakfast the next morning, and rooms for guests, who can breakfast together the following day.
