Planning a wedding in Saarland
The Saarland is a small state on the borders of France and Luxembourg, with a French touch in its cooking and way of life. Weddings take place in baroque buildings and villas around Saarbrücken, on farm estates in the rolling Bliesgau, on wine estates on the Upper Moselle or in converted industrial buildings.
When to marry
May to September is the main season, with the river valleys of the Saar and the Moselle a little milder than the wooded hills in the north. The Bliesgau is known for its orchards, in blossom in spring. September brings the grape harvest on the Moselle. Winter suits indoor celebrations in villas, castles and industrial halls.
Getting guests there
Saarbrücken has a small airport with a limited choice of routes, so many guests fly to Luxembourg or Frankfurt and continue by road or rail. Saarbrücken is a stop on the high-speed line between Paris and Frankfurt. The state is compact, and most venues are a short drive from the capital, though country estates still need a coach or cars.
Villas, farm estates and industrial heritage
Around Saarbrücken, villas built by industrial families and baroque buildings host receptions in salons and gardens. The Bliesgau and the north have farm estates, mills and country hotels, and the Upper Moselle has wine estates facing Luxembourg. Former ironworks and colliery buildings offer large halls with an industrial character.
The legal side
The legally binding marriage in Germany is the civil ceremony at the registry office, the Standesamt; church and free ceremonies are separate. Couples from France, Luxembourg or elsewhere usually marry at home, since marrying here as non-residents requires extensive documents, and then hold a symbolic ceremony at the venue.
