Kayley is of Swedish heritage and in 2024 Kayley got to take Ryan to Sweden to see her family. Both loved the country and the culture, which lead them to dream of having their wedding in Sweden. Gothenburg is a beautiful city on the west side of the country with the perfect summer landscape. It embodies the culture and traditions they want to bring into their family while also representing their love for travel.
Simple anwser: $1 USD is roughly $10 SEK $1 CAD is roughly $7 SEK The flight their will be the most expensive, flights in July range from $600 - $900 USD depending on where you fly out of. Once over their accommodations, food, spending money is a lot more inexpensive. For example Ryan and Kayley spent a week in an AirBnB in Stockholm (the capitol of Sweden) for $2500 SEK which was $250 USD. USD or CAD money will stretch farther over there and the hotels have shuttles and public transportation is cheap, easy, and clean. We recommend checking booking.com . We know a destination wedding can be expensive but we planned this with the conversion in mind to benefit those traveling over and minimize costs.
While the wedding is 'Rustic Celestial' and keeping the bridal party to black and white, Ryan and Kayley ask that you dress is Spring/Summer formal attire. Guests outside the wedding party are welcome to wear colors or patterns that match the time of year.
All invites will have the names of those invited, or a specified +1. If you have kids, we will be allowing kids at our wedding if you choose to bring them.
If you have any questions please contact Kayley directly or the Maid of Honor. If you have anything concerning coordinating with other family or friends, please speak with eachother.
With the wedding being on Saturday we suggest that you arrive by Wednesday the 8th. Remember that Sweden is 6hrs ahead.
