[Asia Economy (Sejong) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Prospective couples residing in Sejong will be offered the benefit of holding outdoor weddings at locations such as the National Sejong Arboretum and Sejong Central Park.


Sejong City announced on the 2nd that it will support holding weddings using public facilities within the city. Weddings can be held in the form of a "small, personalized wedding."


Small weddings are becoming popular recently as a trend moving away from traditional high-cost wedding cultures toward practical wedding customs.


Accordingly, the city is promoting a project to provide public facility spaces as wedding venues. In addition to the Sejong Arboretum and Sejong Central Park, public facility wedding venues will be prepared at Sejong Lake Park, Choryeo History Park, local complex community centers, and comprehensive welfare centers.


The city plans not only to provide wedding venues free of charge but also to offer customized consulting and a modest amount of space arrangement costs to prospective couples.


The city has already received applications for small weddings from seven couples, and the first wedding is scheduled to take place on May 5th at the National Sejong Arboretum.


Any prospective couple residing in Sejong can apply for a small wedding. Applications are made by downloading the relevant form from the Healthy Family Multicultural Family Support Center website, filling it out, and submitting it.


For more detailed information, guidance is available through the Sejong City Healthy Family Multicultural Family Support Center.



A city official stated, "Small weddings have the advantages of being low-cost, practical, and allowing for a personalized atmosphere tailored to individual tastes," and added, "We hope for the interest and participation of many local prospective couples in small weddings."
