Please note: There are two churches in Gjerdrum. The main one is called Gjerdrum Kirke, but our ceremony is in Heni Kirke at Tori. So make sure you’ve got the right one set when finding the location. There is a map showing the correct location below on this site.
🚙 Driving to Vilma Sjøbad

Locations
Heni Kirke
There are two churches in Gjerdrum, which may be confusing. The main one is called Gjerdrum Kirke, but we are getting married in Heni Kirke, so make sure you turn up to the right one.
Parking in Filtvet
There is free parking space when you get to Filvet. Set the location to Vilma Sjøbad first, and when you arrive, you can then drive towards the old “Filtvet Helsetun” and then take a left up to Bjørnstadstubben. Here, you will find free parking space.
Villa Oslofjord
From 15:30 we will host a mingling at Villa Oslofjord right next to Vilma Sjøbad. It’s a large, white Villa right across (in literal terms) from the hotel entrance.

The reception is held at the hotel Vilma Sjøbad, Stranda 3 in Filtvet. Look for palmtrees, a white beach and surfboards lining the entrance lot.
