Þingvellir Church Wedding

March 19, 2020
April 8, 2025

The wonderful M&R had their sights set on Iceland for the destination wedding and furthermore wanted to explore one of Iceland's beautiful country churches. After looking around Þingvellir church spoke to them and the location was ideal too, right in the heart of Thingvellir National park, about 45 minutes from Reykjavik. The day started out with a few raindrops but apparently that was just to cleanse the streets a bit and make the grass greener as Mother Nature stopped the rain in time for their celebrations.

‍

The talented Iceland Wedding photographers Styrmir & Heiðdís documented their day beautifully.

If there ever was a time to give a bride standing ovation this would be it. M remained so calm and centered during a slight hiccup with the dress. M you are a hero and the team we had with us that morning , you are too!

But can we also talk about how gorgeous the dress is and what a knock out the bride is wearing it?!

Þingvellir church lies within the National Park Þingvellir which is a historic site known for being the site of Iceland's parliament and is on the Unesco World Heritage list. Thingvellir church is beautiful inside and out and it's well worth taking the time to look at it's details. It's rather small and cozy and for a wedding ceremony it's very intimate.

After a beautiful day in the countryside the group returned to Reykjavik to attend the wedding reception at Skólabrú. If you are looking for a traditional old-timey Icelandic wedding venue you should definitely look at Skolabru. Super charming.

Join us for the Pink Iceland Pride Package, a joyful two-day experience during Reykjavík Pride 2025 that blends queer history, stunning nature, and community.

Starting at the Pink Iceland office, we'll uncover the stories of LGBTQIA+ life in the city, past and present. Learn about the early days of queer activism in Iceland, discover historic venues, and hear the tales of those who helped shape Reykjavík into the vibrant, inclusive city it is today. Friday, August 8th begins at 10:00 with the Golden Circle – Pride Edition, a fabulous day out exploring Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders. Together with fellow LGBTQIA+ travelers and a charismatic guide, we’ll visit Þingvellir National Park, the majestic Gullfoss waterfall, and the erupting geothermal area of Geysir. Expect gorgeous scenery, a tasty lunch stop, and maybe even a surprise or two along the way. Email us to secure your spot today!
The Southeast has so many gems, making the slightly longer journey up there so worth it! Why not drive a little longer, trek a little further and reach a little higher for the wedding photos of a lifetime!

Well hello Valdi - Pink Iceland Wedding planner extraordinaire - congrats on the amazing review! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Planning a wedding from North Carolina to Iceland was no small feat—especially without seeing anything in person. But from the moment we began working with Valdi at Pink Iceland, we felt a sense of calm, trust, and joy that carried us all the way to the big day. Valdi was incredibly professional and thoughtful, going out of his way to overcommunicate every detail so that we always felt informed and reassured, no matter how far away we were. My friends and family were skeptical—after all, how could you possibly plan a wedding halfway across the world without ever stepping foot in the country? But I had complete faith in Valdi, and I’m so glad I did. He and the entire Pink Iceland team made us feel genuinely seen, celebrated, and supported. Their love for love is palpable, and it was clear from the beginning that this wasn’t just another wedding to them—it was our wedding. '...' Valdi brought a sense of peace to what is often an overwhelming and emotional process. He put our needs above everything else, giving us space to be present, soak in the moment, and truly honor the meaning behind our day. It felt like we were surrounded by old friends, not just planners. It was, without question, our home away from home. Every vendor Valdi recommended overperformed beyond our wildest expectations. The quality, care, and professionalism of everyone involved left us completely blown away. We have to give a special shoutout to his photographer recommendation, Sunday and White—his work is nothing short of breathtaking. He captured our day in a way we didn’t even know was possible. Our photos are so beautiful, they honestly look like they belong in a magazine—and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We would recommend and trust Pink Iceland with all of our being. Valdi helped us create something so much more than a wedding—he helped us create a memory that feels like magic. I can say with full certainty that there isn’t a single thing I would change. Valdi and Pink Iceland dreamed bigger than I ever could have imagined. #pinkiceland #icelandwedding

Well hello Glóey - Pink Iceland Wedding planner extraordinaire - congrats on the amazing review! Dream Wedding Thanks to Glóey and Pink Iceland! Planning a wedding in Iceland from afar, especially with only five months, felt daunting at first. But from our very first conversation, Glóey assured us it was not only possible but that it would be wonderful. And they were absolutely right! My partner and I had no idea where to even begin, but Glóey made everything so incredibly easy. They listened to our vague ideas and magically transformed them into an absolute dream wedding. As someone who tends to be a bit Type A, I initially found it hard to let go of control when coordinating a wedding remotely. However, it was such a relief and joy to do so for our wedding, and Glóey made that possible. Their responsiveness, meticulous attention to detail, and ability to perfectly nail our vision quickly put all my worries at ease. They didn't just help us craft our vision and provide expert suggestions; they executed every idea flawlessly, surpassing any and all expectations we had for the day. Our ceremony site (Írárfoss) and our reception were STUNNING – and we really just provided our general vibe/preferences/and some inspo images to Glóey and they put that vision together. They did a fantastic job with all the details, while they also fostered an atmosphere that reminded us the day was about being in the moment. Beyond their excellent work, Glóey is simply a joy to be around. We had so much fun driving around Iceland taking photos with our fantastic photographer (Sunday & White, Laimonas) and Glóey before the ceremony. We genuinely wished we could have spent even more time together! I was initially unsure about taking photos before the ceremony, as we adjusted the schedule during planning, but Glóey suggested it, and I'm so incredibly glad we took their advice. That time before the ceremony was actually perfect for taking photos, laughing, and loosening up a bit. We cannot recommend Glóey and the entire Pink Iceland team highly enough. Thanks to them, we had an absolute dream wedding! 📸 @julietterowlandweddings & @sundayandwhitestudio
