What are the legal requirements for an elopement in Spain?

In the land where poets and lovers have long entwined their hearts, the legal rituals of union are simple yet essential. To elope in Spain, you both will need to present valid passports, birth certificates, and proof of your single status, such as a divorce decree or a death certificate of a previous spouse, if applicable. These documents must be translated into Spanish and bear the apostille stamp. If the moon and stars align and you desire a civil ceremony, one of you must reside in Spain for at least two years, but fear not—the beauty of symbolic ceremonies knows no such bounds, allowing your love to flourish amidst Spain's sacred wilderness.

How can we personalize our elopement in Spain?

Your elopement should sing the unique ballad of your hearts. Infuse your ceremony with sweet, intimate touches—handwritten vows exchanged under the embrace of centuries-old olive trees, or perhaps an intimate picnic with local delicacies as the Andalusian sun sets, casting a golden spell over your love. Let the playful whispers of flamenco guide your first dance or release lanterns into the warm night, symbolizing your love’s light soaring into the vast Spanish sky.

How to include family?

If you want to include your family in your elopement, one of the best ways is to celebrate with them when you get back home! Your elopement is all about just the two of you, but that doesn’t mean your loved ones can’t be part of the journey. Since it’s unfortunately not possible to legally marry during an elopement in Spain, I suggest saying your vows in an incredible location here, where I’ll help you find the perfect spot, plan the experience, and capture it all on film—plus, I can turn those moments into beautiful photos. Then, when you return home, you can throw a special ceremony party. Imagine this: your family and friends gathered, watching your elopement film, seeing every breathtaking moment of your adventure. As the film ends, the doors open, and you both walk in—toward the altar—where the officiant will legally marry you in front of your loved ones. And then? The party officially begins! This way, you get an intimate, adventurous elopement and a beautiful moment shared with your family. The best of both worlds!

What is the best time of year for an elopement in Spain?

While each season wraps Spain in its own enchanting cloak, spring and autumn are the most gentle lovers, caressing your day with temperate breezes and vibrant landscapes. In spring, the fields burst into colorful bloom, and in autumn, the vineyards blush with the hues of harvest. Summer, with its sun-drenched days, offers long twilight hours perfect for sunset vows, while winter brings a still, romantic quiet to the cobblestone streets and rugged coastlines, lending a mystical quality to your union.

Can we include cultural elements in our Spanish elopement?

Absolutely, let the soul of Spain kiss your ceremony with its rich traditions. Feel the passionate rhythm of flamenco dance through your vows, or let a classical guitar’s gentle strumming be the soundtrack to your love. Incorporate rituals like the exchange of “arras,” symbolizing shared prosperity, or break bread dipped in olive oil, a simple act that speaks volumes of nourishment and communion. Let the spirit of Don Quixote and Dulcinea, the quintessential lovers, infuse your day with timeless romance.

Do you also do water elopements?

Yes, as a water enthusiast, I am thrilled to help you with water elopements. Picture yourselves exchanging vows on a sailboat, riding the waves on a surfboard, standing beneath a cascading waterfall, or even diving underwater. The possibilities are as boundless as your love.

Can we combine our elopement with a honeymoon in Spain?

Ah, the sweet serenade doesn’t end with the “I do.” Yes, let Spain be the cradle that rocks your newly wedded bliss. Wander hand in hand through Barcelona’s labyrinthine streets, lose yourselves in the passionate nights of Granada, or find solace in the quietude of the Canary Islands, where time slows and hearts have only each other. The entirety of Spain beckons as a backdrop for your tender honeymoon moments, inviting you to continue your love story amid its diverse beauty.

How do we ensure our family and friends feel included in our elopement?

Even in the intimate silence of an elopement, the echoes of loved ones can be held close. Capture every kiss, every whispered vow with an artful videographer, allowing family and friends to later witness the heartbeat of your day. Consider hosting a post-elopement celebration, where you can recount your Spanish fairytale, letting those afar feel the sun's warmth and the love’s glow in real-time. Let your love story be shared, a bridge of smiles and happy tears that spans across time and space. I read an extensive article with tips and experiences about eloping with family.

What attire is best suited for a Spanish elopement?

In the land of bullfighters and dreamers, let your attire echo the essence of your romance. Lightweight, flowing fabrics that dance with the Mediterranean breeze; lace that whispers of bygone eras; soft pastels or vibrant hues, mirroring the Spanish sun’s splendor. Shoes that can embrace both cobblestone streets and sandy shores, and for him, a suit or linen ensemble that breathes and moves with grace. As Federico García Lorca once penned, dress in the spirit of a love that feels as effortless and eternal as the skies above Andalusia.

Best elopement locations in Spain

Where other elopement photographers and planners might focus on beautiful cities like Madrid, Mallorca, or Barcelona, I prefer the charm of small towns that most people have never even heard of.

Don’t get me wrong—Madrid is amazing! Imagine walking hand in hand through Retiro Park or standing in front of the mesmerizing Crystal Palace as the sunlight reflects off its glass walls. And let’s not forget the city’s breathtaking skyline at sunset, where the rooftops seem to stretch on forever.

Barcelona? A dream for art lovers. Saying “I do” with the colorful mosaic terraces of Park Güell around you or on a quiet beach like Cala Figuera? Absolutely magical.

And Mallorca? Stunning. Picture yourselves on top of a cliff at Cap de Formentor, where the sea seems endless. Or wandering through Fornalutx, a hidden gem of a village with cobbled stone streets and the scent of citrus trees in the air. No wonder it's already a top destination for travelers.

But when I think of an elopement for dreamers and adventurers—because that’s what you are—I imagine something even more intimate. Just the two of you, exploring together, away from the crowds. The fewer people, the better, right?

So here are some special places I can recommend. But remember, every couple that hires me for their elopement gets a unique experience. I personally scout locations to find that hidden gem that feels like it was made just for you!
