Sweden is a popular destination for weddings due to its inclusive marriage policies and beautiful settings. Most adults can marry there without needing to be residents or citizens. Notably, same-sex marriage has been legal since 2009, but requirements vary if neither partner is Swedish. While some couples prefer cohabitation under the Cohabitation Act, marriage offers additional legal rights, especially regarding property division and child custody. However, marriage does not influence immigration benefits for non-EU partners seeking to move to Sweden.
Many couples opt not to marry in Sweden, where the Cohabitation Act grants several important rights to couples who live together.
Marriage also means that if the couple have a child, both parents are automatically granted custody.
