Kjære gjester,
Vi har gleden av å invitere dere til å feire bryllupet vårt den 27. og 28. juni 2025 på vakre Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri. Dette sjarmerende stedet ligger på øya Selbjørn i Austevoll og gir en intim atmosfære som vi synes passer perfekt for vår store dag.
Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri er et av Norges eldste gjestgiverier, med en historie som går helt tilbake til 1600-tallet. De gamle bygningene har bevart sin unike karakter med tømmervegger og koselige rom som skaper en varm og nostalgisk stemning. Gjestgiveriet ble opprinnelig bygget på ordre fra den danske kongen for å gi husly og mat til reisende. I dag er stedet en liten perle som kombinerer historisk sjarm med moderne komfort.
Vi trives svært godt i Austevoll og synes det er veldig kjekt å få dele gode opplevelser herfra med dere. Karina har minner herfra som strekker seg tilbake til barndommen og vi har også hytte i Barmen (Austevoll) kun en liten halvtime fra Gjestgiveriet.
Vi gleder oss til å dele dagen med dere i disse vakre omgivelsene, med nydelige hager og sjøutsikt som bakgrunn. Vi håper dere alle har anledning til å komme for sammen å skape minner vi aldri vil glemme!
Med kjærlighet,
Karina & Ari

Dear Guests,
We are delighted to invite you to celebrate our wedding on June 27th and 28th, 2025, at the beautiful Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri. This charming venue, located on the island of Selbjørn in Austevoll, offers an intimate atmosphere that we feel is perfect for our special day.
Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri is one of Norway’s oldest inns, with a history dating back to the 1600s. The historic buildings have preserved their unique character, with timber walls and cozy rooms that create a warm and nostalgic atmosphere. Originally built by order of the Danish king to provide food and shelter for travelers, the inn has become a hidden gem that combines historical charm with modern comfort.
We have a special connection to Austevoll and are so happy to share this wonderful place with all of you. Karina has fond childhood memories from here, and we also have a cabin in Barmen (Austevoll), just half an hour from Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri.
We look forward to sharing this day with you in these stunning surroundings, with beautiful gardens and sea views as our backdrop. We truly hope you can join us to create memories we will cherish forever!
With love,
Karina & Ari
