In a park

If you are looking for a pastoral and romantic wedding in a park, Barcelona has many options for you. Our favorite park would be the Parc del Laberint d’Horta, a true hidden gem. The park has a collection of fountains, waterfalls, historic architecture and lush gardens. Its vegetal labyrinth is made of trimmed cypress trees is a must-see! Parc natural de Collserola is well-known for its hiking and biking trails but the generous flora and fauna would be a perfect background for a romantic wedding. While exploring the mountains finding the perfect spots, you can admire one of the Medieval ruins. Last but not least, Parc Güell is one of Antoni Gaudi’s most famous work and a beautiful place where everything is inspired by nature. This park offers the best view of the city from the benches on the huge terrace made of mosaics. What do we love about Park Güell? The burst of patterns and colors that will definitely bring life to your wedding photos.

Do you want to feel the sand under your feet while saying yes I do to your soulmate? Barcelona is indeed a great location for a beach wedding. If you feel more comfortable with a wedding planner, call Beach Wedding Barcelona. They will take care of everything for your wedding ceremony on the beach, from the transfer to the hotel, to the professional photo session on one of the local beaches. If you are looking for something more quiet, opt for one of the large and quiet beaches of Costa Daurada: Calafell, Cala Fonda and Tamarit are the most beautiful ones. You can also get married in Calella de Palafrugel, in Costa Brava, or Tossa de Mar, which are medieval and fishermen villages.

It is always hard to find the perfect venue for your wedding, which depends on your budget, the number of guests and the atmosphere you want. Getting married in a castle might be a good option because you can celebrate, party and sleep at the same place. You will fall in love with the Castell de Sant Marçal for its old world beauty, stunning façade, peaceful garden and beautiful grounds. Plus, they work with the most reputed catering firms. It is the perfect spot for the fairy tale wedding of your dreams! For a true medieval wedding, Castell Montsonis is the perfect fit. The fortification is built on top of the small village of Montsonis, which is surrounded by green lands and wild forests. Finally, the magnificent Castell de Montclar has been restored recently to welcome young couples for their wedding. It has all the elegance of the Catalan renaissance from the XVI-XVIII century.
