Igloo Hotel Wedding

Igloo Hotel Chapel Ceremony

During winter we offer the Lutheran wedding ceremony as well as a civil ceremony. The Ice Chapel is in the Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel, approximately 20 km from Alta airport. The Ice Chapel is constructed every year from ice and snow and is designed and decorated with a special art theme chosen each year. The ice-chapel is approved by the Bishop of Nord-Hålogaland, and the local parish performs the marriages and christenings. The couple must arrive in Alta no later than the day before the wedding so that the pastor can meet them. It is also possible to do a rehearsal in the ice chapel.

‍

The Ice Chapel is integrated into, and centrally located within the Igloo Hotel but is nevertheless a separate space clearly demarcated from the rest of the building. It is an intimate room with special acoustics, and like the rest of the hotel it is decorated with very beautiful ice sculptures. The ice chapel is available for weddings from late December until early April each year. We recommend afternoons and evenings after 4 pm as that is when the Igloo Hotel quieter and the light most special.
