Kakslauttanen has been a popular wedding & honeymoon destination for
years. Many people also like to come to
renew their vows. No matter how imaginative your wishes may be, we will tailor
our services accordingly. You will find
the right kind of facilities here, whether
you are planning a small celebration for
close family and friends or for the whole
extended family.
A winter wedding under the northern
lights makes for a spectacular, memorable wedding day. What else could such
natural phenomenon spell, other than
eternal happiness. We build a special
chapel out of snow for weddings and the
log chapel of Tieva, in the middle of the
forest, also provides an ideal wedding
setting. It is possible to arrive at the
chapel on a sleigh, drawn by reindeer or
a horse.
If you are aiming for a summer wedding, then the ‘nightless night’ will lend

an unforgettable glow to your summer
wedding day. In Autumn, during the
colourful ‘ruska’ period, it is as if the entire nature of Lapland joined in on the
exhilarating wedding atmosphere, as
tree leaves and ground flora are ablaze
in shades of red.
Wedding ceremonies are held at the peak
of Kaunispaa fell, the island of Ukko – a
holy island of Sami – in Lake Inarinjarvi, or Santa’s bridge, among other places.
We also have a portable wedding alter
available that can be set up anywhere
in the wilderness. A unique experience holds you at the gold panning site,
where the happy couple can pan for gold
nuggets for their wedding rings.
Being hopeless romantics, we have designed a number of accommodation facilities with the bridal couples and wedding guests pa
