Getting married in Junglinster
Junglinster publishes one ceremony slot — Friday at 16:00 — and no civil weddings at the weekend or on public holidays. For a couple who lives here and wants a Saturday celebration, the legal ceremony is the Friday before. Château de Bourglinster stands in the same commune, about five minutes by car from the town hall, so a 16:00 ceremony and the reception can run as one afternoon without a long transfer.
