Princess Märtha Louise's wedding to shaman Durek Verrett: Court distances itself. Court does not participate in the event financially or in any other way.

Couple have to cover the costs of their wedding themselves - the bride's father King Harald does not contribute. Royal expert Ole Jørgen Schulsrud-Hansen promises a “celebrity wedding with a royal flair” “The wedding will attract great interest nationally and internationally, but it can provide income to the couple’s family,” he says.
