The advantages of celebrating your wedding in a hotel in Spain

When we imagine a hotel for weddings, inexplicably, a big hotel comes to mind, with hundreds of bedrooms and big lounges with a somewhat cold and impersonal atmosphere. For this reason, many couples reject this option when searching for wedding locations. However, we must not forget that in Spain there is a large number of hotels which are perfect to celebrate weddings with charm, specialised in unique weddings that are full of magic. In this post, we have given information so that you learn more about this type of hotel, and that you take them into account in the run up to your big day. I´m sure that we´re going to surprise you!

To continue, let´s review the strong points and advantages that wedding hotels in Spain can offer us, which are not few and far between:

Reduction of costs:

There is a belief that open air weddings are cheaper, but this is not always the case. We must take into account the fact that open air spaces are not as well conditioned as an interior space and so it is necessary to hire other services: a tent for the sun or rain, furniture, catering, decoration… it all adds up, and in the long run increases the total cost.

Zero worries about the weather

One of the biggest worries of couples who decide to get married in the open air is the weather: will it rain? Will it be windy? Will it be too hot? None of this will cause worry if you celebrate your wedding in a hotel. Plus point!

Accommodation for guests

Another advantage of this type of hotel is that they include accommodation for guests. A big plus if we take into account that you won´t have to move at any time as the bedrooms are in the same hotel where you celebrate the wedding. It´s certain that boutique hotels have less bedrooms than tourist hotels, and in that case, your closest guests, such as family and friends, can always stay there.

Nature

Although the wedding is inside, most of these hotels for weddings in Spain have very well-kept and beautiful garden areas which, if the weather permits, you can always enjoy. Have a drink calmly admiring the views, a little aperitif before the banquet, a chill out corner, etc. Just because you are not celebrating your wedding outdoors doesn´t mean you can´t enjoy nature and gardens.

Services and installations

When celebrating your wedding in a hotel, you will have all of the necessary facilities for an event of such as this: services, air conditioning, heating and its own kitchen.

Decoration

It is not the same to have a space already decorated in a style that you like as to decorate an outdoor area, because decorating an outdoor area will always be more expensive since it is a blank canvas that must be designed. Therefore, you must choose a hotel that suits your taste, whether vintage, with modern touches, industrial … the possibilities are endless!  

And as a picture is worth more than a thousand words, here are two of our most special projects, both carried out in hotels with a lot of charm, but of different styles.

On one hand, the Hotel Maria Cristina. It is a very emblematic hotel in the city of San Sebastian and the favourite destination for many Hollywood celebrities who went to spend their holidays at the start of the 20th century, in total luxury.

And, in contrast, here is our work carried out in the Torre del Visco, a boutique hotel situated in Teruel, with a lot of history. It is a restricted space as it has only 16 bedrooms, but has impressive charm. Additionally, it is immersed in nature.

A wedding with olive trees in Catalonia

On July 15th, the Russian couple Vladelina and Roman celebrated their dream wedding in Catalonia. Despite the fact that they have been a couple for 10 years, they decided to renew their vows with a romantic celebration in the Finca La Boella, located in Tarragona. This estate is dedicated to the production of olive oil and this inspired them. All of the wedding decoration, the bridal bouquet, the invitations, the girls´floral crowns and the boys´ boutonnieres were made out of olives leaves. The result was wonderful!

Vladelina wore a splendid dress with a vaporous fabric that she combined with a beautiful hairstyle and a veil cloak made out of lace as a unique and original detail. For her make up, the emphasis was on her eyes and her lips were natural. Roman wore a white shirt and a blue trouers. They looked so happy!

The ceremony took place in a patio with natural light, where wooden chairs were decorated with olive branches, and  it was officiated by the couple´s friend, which was very emotional.

After, the guests enjoyed a cocktail and a banquet. And there was a big surprise : as a gift to the newlyweds, one of their close friends played his guitar. An emotional moment of the day! Vladelina changed for the dance and chose to wear a pink dress with floral details, very romantic.

It was a wedding that all the guests, both adults and kids, enjoyed, since the entertainers dressed in medieval costumes and prepared games such as a treasure hunt that took place in the cellar. 

The fireworks were the perfect finale for this great wedding in Catalonia. We leave you with the fantastic photographs!

10 reasons why you should hire a Wedding Planner

Have you just got engaged and you have all the preparations ahead of you? Have you started the preparations and are lost between formalities? Do you need someone to take control of the organisation of this special day so you can enjoy it to the maximum? The solution is clear : you need a wedding planner in your life.

If you are still unsure about the importance of this type of professional for the organisation of your wedding, in this post we explain the advantages to hire a wedding planner. Let’s do it !

She will be the figure who will coordinate your wedding

A wedding preparation is exciting and wonderful, but it can be sometimes intense and frustrating if you are not going in the right direction. It is about coordinating lots of details, bills, documents and providers, and it is hard to keep everything in mind without forgetting anything. Because for sure, in addition to the organisation of the wedding, you will have to work, organise your day to day life and do a thousand things at the same time.

Nevertheless, a wedding planner is a professional dedicated to the organisation, who keeps in mind everything about the big day and every detail of the wedding to make sure it goes perfectly.

She will eliminate the stress

Precisely for your peace of mind, having someone as a figure who knows everything about about your wedding will automatically eliminate any stress and you will be able to enjoy preparations without this tension that can be overwhelming.

She will be by your side during the whole process

A lot of couples have doubts about what a wedding planner really does and it is totally understandable, as some figures of this sector call themselves “general” wedding planners. In the post called differences between a wedding planner and a venue coordinator, we explain in detail the differences between those two professionals in the wedding world.

One of the differences is that a wedding planner will be by your side during the entire process of preparations and during the wedding, she will be with with you from the beginning until the end, from when the bride is getting ready to when the last guest is leaving. She will always keep you calm.

She will make sure you save money and time

This point might be the most surprising and attractive. You may think : how will I save money if I have to hire her and pay her fees? Here is the explication. A wedding planner will get you the best professionals at the lowest price, and then will make sure you have excellent quality in everything you are asking for without exceeding this price.

Keep in mind that she has years of experience and more connections in the bridal world that make her able to get the best at the best price.

With you, your guests will be her priority

The main concern of every couple is that their guests feel comfortable and enjoy the whole celebration. But being with them at the same time as organising your wedding and enjoying it sometimes is impossible. But rest assured, for a wedding planner your guests are the most important along with you. She will look for the best accommodation if they come from abroad, make a welcome kit with all the information they need, organise activities for the days before and after the wedding and ensure that, at all times, they feel comfortable and integrated. This is especially important in a destination wedding or a mixed wedding, where there are guests who come from abroad and who sometimes do not speak the same language.

Your wedding planner will make sure that communication flows, that the master of ceremony is bilingual if you want it that way, and that everything goes smoothly.

Choosing the best professionals

She has been in the business for years and has all kinds of contacts and relations. Experience gives you resources to know how to recognise the best professionals and not only for their results but also for being efficient during the all process, the day of wedding and the months before. She will advise you about the best photographers, florists, designers… and always according to your style.

She will keep you aware of new trends

Despite knowing everything about planning, a wedding planner is also someone who keeps up to date with new trends. Maybe you cannot choose something about the decor, doubtful about the style you like, … but a wedding planner will make sure that your wedding has the style you are looking for and will show you every possibility.

She will come up with solutions

Problems always happen to a greater or lesser extent, but what you need for this moment of stress and tension are solutions. This is where your wedding planner comes in. It is possible that you will never know about an “incident” that showed up during the process, since this professional will fix it for you before you even know about it, as your only goal is to enjoy this time and relax.

Even though for her your wedding is the most important thing in the world, she is someone who is not part of the family and that can take decisions and propose ideas with more distance, without being overwhelmed by stress and emotion. However we can assure you that after the wedding, she will part of your family.

She will respect your budget

A less attractive point but still very important : the budget. A wedding planner will strictly adhere to the budget of the wedding, so that it will not be exceeded at any time, knowing where to allocate more or less  budget and leaving part of it for possible unforeseen problems that may arise. She will not leave anything to chance and she will have everything measured.

Furthermore, the issue of bills, times, deadlines … everything, she will take care of it and will be in charge of notifying you when you have to make some payment so that you are never left in the dark.

Complete trust

The most important of all, and this is why we leave it until the end, is that having a trustful person to organise the happiest day of your life Is priceless. You will see how, as soon as you sit down to talk about the wedding of your dreams, she will immediately get down to work to make it happen.

And there are 10 reasons why you should hire a wedding planner, that will watch over you and will allow you to enjoy your celebration. If you want to delve deeper into understanding the role of a wedding planner, we can explain everything to you in detail.

We wait for you at info@svadbavispanii.ru, to solve your doubts. We do not enjoy anything more than making your dreams come true!

Wedding in Madrid – Teresa y Ernest

Teresa and Ernest celebrated their wedding in Madrid last February. It was a very romantic and emotional wedding, in which the couple was surrounded by all their loved ones who came from the USA and Mexico to accompany the couple on this special day.

The bride got ready in a hotel in the centre of the city, with a smile on her face. She wore a beautiful heart-shaped dress with transparent sleeves and she looked stunning. She wore a very natural hairstyle and for makeup she had black eyes and pink lips. The jewel shoes in nude and the red nails were the perfect touches of color. The bouquet was a delicate one with white flowers.

Ernest was waiting at the altar with a dark suit and bow tie, very elegant and excited, and the ceremony could not have been more emotional. The banks were adorned with pretty white bouquets that gave light to this cozy Church.

At the banquet all the guests could sit at the same table, where they could enjoy together this unforgettable day. A beautiful detail was waiting for them at the table: a precious silver spoon. Look how lovely this wedding in Madrid was.

Irina and Anton celebrated their lovely wedding in Salamanca, in the monumental Castle Buen Amor, the perfect location where the radiant couple seemed to be in the Middle Ages. The castle, with large halls and beautiful antique furniture, became the perfect venue for this couple.

Irina wore a beautiful strapless dress with a beautiful skirt decorated with flowers. The bride adorned her hair with a small white flower. The white and green bouquet with burgundy flowers was the perfect choice for her look. Anton wore elegant blue trousers and a white shirt.

The wedding invitations were also amazing. They chose white paper with a beautiful green envelope, written with a romantic typography. The lovely ceremony was held in the spectacular courtyard of the castle, surrounded by stone columns. An iron altar and an old carpet with floral details were the main elements of the decoration. In addition, we also decorated the space with medieval style elements: old books, a golden mirror, glass vases, fruits and flowers. Irina and Anton could not have been more excited about their romantic wedding in Salamanca, in this special castle. The photographs say it all!

Wedding in Mallorca – Dmitry y Aurike

Dmitry and Aurike’s wedding took place on a beach on Mallorca island, with a wonderful rocky landscape and the giant sea in the background. We organised the ceremony in a lovely place in the venue, where white chairs and a nice carpet made out of beige raffia were placed. To make it even brighter, we decorated both the altar, table and the chairs with white flowers. The couple sat on a rustic wooden bench.

Aurike was a bride verybut very romantic, with a touch of modernism. Her look combined a spectacular skirt made out of pink tulle, and a white top made out of lace.

She left her hair untied and adorned it with delicate white flowers, we love it! The perfect complement was her bouquet, a composition of white flowers and various shades of pink, with bows made out of lace and satin, also in the same colors.

The tables were decorated in white with glassware with blue touches, to match with the landscape in which the wedding was celebrated. As centerpieces : beautiful cages with candles inside.

The couple could take their incredible photos on the private beach of the hotel where this wedding was held in Majorca, we show them to you below!

Spring wedding in Torre del Visco

Many couples choose to celebrate a spring wedding, because the landscape is more beautiful than the rest of the year and the weather is perfect. The trees are in bloom and the grass has an amazing green color. You can see this in the images that we show below, of a romantic bride in the beautiful Torre del Visco gardens. It is a XV century estate surrounded by a spectacular forest.

The bride wears two beautiful dresses by the Spanish designer Rosa Clará, both sleeveless and with a very romantic style. The first one is a design with very light fabric that fits perfectly. In addition, it has lace details on the waist and back. The second dress, a spectacular princess one with more volume, v-neck and beautiful back. The hairstyle in both looks could not be better with the dresses and the environment: a gorgeous bun with delicate flowers in which the green predominated. The bouquet was also in white with little purple flowers. Thanks to the sunny day and how beautiful the gardens were, we did not hesitate to photograph the bride in the gardens when she was still getting ready. What do you think of the result?

If you are thinking about organizing an spring wedding, you can not miss these photographs. They are full of light and color!

Wedding in Toledo – Anjelica and Remo

Toledo has some beautiful places to celebrate unique weddings. One of them is the Viñales Cigarral Santa María, where we organised the wedding of Anjelica and Remo.

Anjelica is Russian and Remo is Spanish, and they wanted to celebrate a wonderful wedding in Toledo, surrounded by vineyards. Both the ceremony and the banquet were outside, since the landscape surrounding the venue was spectacular.

The bride was amazing with an outfit composed of a tulle skirt and a draped asymmetric top, with just a glamorous sparkling bracelet. Her hairstyle was romantic with delicate white flowers, which was the perfect ornement for her hair. We love her bridal bouquet with pink and peach tones.

We created several stages for the wedding celebration. The banquet was for two, on a rectangular wooden table on two green easels, adorned with green branches and white flowers, a beautiful chandelier and glass ornaments. The theme of the wine was very important, and we can see it appearing through the bottle, the glasses in burgundy color and the decoration built with corks.

Another area we decorated was with a wonderful antique dark wood dresser and large mirror, in which the couple could take their pictures.

Without a doubt, this wedding in Toledo is characterized by the complicity and the happiness of the couple, and the incredible vineyard landscape where they celebrated their love.

Wedding in Asturias – Kaci and Dave

The wedding of Kaci and Dave was a spectacular wedding in Asturias, in a castle in which the bride and groom became real princes. This castle has an spectacular architecture and it is in the middle of nature, surrounded by beautiful mountains.

The castle has magnificent stone stairs where the couple could take photos and immortalize their great day. The couple was also photographed in the beautiful landscape surrounding the castle, with the green of the mountains and a beautiful lake in the background.

Kaci wore her hair with beautiful waves, with little flowers and a simple veil. As complements, she wore a pair of spectacular vintage earrings, sandals in pink rose that combined perfectly with the dress, and a bouquet in pastel tones with white and pink flowers.

The bride got ready in one of the castle rooms. She wore a beautiful dress in light pink with silver lace full of rhinestones.

Dave chose for the occasion a modern and elegant suit in deep blue, with white shirt and striped tie in light blue. He wore a belt and brown shoes and some flowers adorning his lapel.

The invitations were designed with an elegant and sophisticated style, with a beautiful illustration of the castle and typography according to the style of the wedding. For the ceremony and dinner decoration, we chose to use candles to provide light and give a more cozy atmosphere to the romantic ceremony.

Kaci and Dave wedding in Asturias was a wonderful day in which the couple shone in an exceptional environment, with a monumental building in the background surrounded by an amazing landscape.
