Travel & Stay
We are so excited to celebrate with you in Sweden! Most events will take place just outside of Stockholm, in a beautiful countryside retreat surrounded by forests, lakes, and the magic of Midsummer.
✈️ Getting There
From Stockholm Arlanda Airport, it’s about a 40–50 min drive to Björnbacka.
We’ll be renting a couple of cars and can pick you up at the airport, but please let us know your arrival details in advance.
Renting a car is only necessary if you want the freedom to go off and explore on your own.
Taxis and Ubers are available in Stockholm but can be limited outside the city.
🌸 Theme & Attire
The theme is floral and pastel (think soft summer colors and flower crowns).
Please wear comfortable shoes, our ceremony will include hiking, and Midsummer festivities often mean dancing on grass.
Sweden’s summer weather is unpredictable. Bring a light jacket and be ready for rain, just in case.
🎉 What to Expect
Midsummer Festival: We’ll join the locals in Stockholm for music, maypoles, dancing, and flower crowns.
Our Ceremony: If weather allows, it will involve a short hike. Backup plan is indoors at the venue.
Activities: Some will join us mountain biking, others hiking, and there’s plenty of time to relax at the retreat.
🍽 Meals
Meals will be served throughout your stay. If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know in advance so we can do our best to keep everyone safe and happy.
❓ Questions
If you have any questions about travel, accommodations, or the schedule, please reach out to us directly. We’ll be happy to help!
