The wedding days of Christian Lindner and Franca Lehfeldt on Sylt start on Thursday.

Germany's political elite will also be there.

Keitum/Sylt - It is probably one of the most noted weddings of 2022: Federal Minister of Finance Christian Lindner marries his girlfriend Franca Lehfeldt on the island of Sylt.

It starts on Thursday - the real highlight follows on Saturday.

Lindner wedding on Sylt: civil marriage with a romantic background

The event starts on Thursday with the civil wedding in the Sylt Museum in Keitum.

This is where the peculiarities begin, because the registrar will be none other than the mayor of the Sylt municipality, Nikolas Häckel.

He is non-partisan.

Not only do the islanders themselves get married on Sylt, but also many guests.

"Before Corona, we had about 800 weddings a year with different numbers of guests," said Häckel.

There are four permanent registrars on the island and three "temporaries", these are registrars who work permanently in a different department.

Their separation became known in April 2018.

Last year, Lindner also divulged private information in an interview with the magazine "Bunte".

Starting a family with his partner Lehfeldt is very important to him.

"Yes, Franca and I have that wish," he replied when asked about the topic of having our own family.

And there was trouble in advance: punks announced that they wanted to storm the Lindner wedding.
