Wedding Wednesdays: The hard part... deciding on a venue

Days till the wedding: 829
Stress level (1 - 10): 4


Hello lovelies
I don't know if you all know but I live in Spain and I'm a British citizen, which makes getting married in Spain is a lot more complicated especially seen as I'm not catholic. 
We are really set on getting married in a church then having the reception in a nice hotel but it doesn't seem to be working that way :( 

We have had a couple of venue choices and ideas on what we should do but everything is so much work!! 

Here are the options.

Rebate Weddings


Rebate weddings appeared a very good option until we heard so bad reviews about the Wedding Planner but that is something we will have to judge ourselves, here you can have a legal ceremony in the cute little church and reception in this gorgeous restaurant.





Weekend away in Gibraltar 

I was more keen on this Idea than Mikey but we have to be equal on the decision so this one is a 80/20 situation, the majority of British people that live in Spain, have a legal service in Gibraltar, then come back and have a blessing with families in a nice villa. Which is a lovely idea and makes it 10 times cheaper than other options but the problem is we want to get married in the winter so we can have the reception outside and a villa wouldn't hold all the guests. 
So I thought of having the whole wedding in Gibraltar, get married in the church and have the reception in a gorgeous hotel, spend the weekend there that way it's like a mini honeymoon, the problem is its a 6 hour drive away and people might not be willing to go that far. Having a lot of people there isn't something I am bothered about but he wants everyone there LOL. 


Married in Gibraltar, Party up the road! 

 The last idea we have come up with recently (like today) is to follow the flock and just get married in Gibraltar then have a blessing and reception in a nearby venue, This way it's close, the venues isn't to pricey, it's easy for people to get home and it would probably work out cheaper, I don't really have much to say about his option as I did with the others, not that I don't like it, its just we have only thought of this literally 5 minutes a go and all the pros and cons haven't fully processed in my head yet!




To my lovely readers.... this is something that is making me very stressed and would love to hear all your opinions, What would you do if it were your wedding? Which out of the three do you prefer? Any tips would be extremely helpful! 

Thank you so much and hope you enjoyed this post!

  1. I don't think you should go with the second one, I think a 6 hour drive is a long way for your guests.
    Personally I would go with the last one!

    I hope you have a nice wedding!
