Ernst and Ekaterina married on Saturday, 8 July 2017, in Hanover, Germany. Despite a guest list of 600 people, one person who didn't attend the wedding was the prince's father, also named Prince Ernst August, due to a disagreement.

The couple legally married two days before their celebration on 6 July and enjoyed two private receptions: a luncheon at the historic Herrenhäuser Gardens and an evening reception at Marienburg Castle.
