So, you have decided to have your wedding in abroad, and you have decided Spain is the destination and you understand all the necessary paperwork required or at least have somebody who does. You must have possibly heard nice things about Spain and how breathtaking it is to get married there.

It has all the right buzzes – delicious cuisines, great weather, lovely people, and a huge list of places to visit which caters for all kinds of visitors.

However, there are several other things to consider, one of which is the best time to get married. Now, if you have such concerns, this article is for you.

Spain is a country formed by a lot of cultures, as well as Greek, Roman, Celtic and Jewish influences. It is famous for its weather, the football team (Barcelona), food and overall sunny place and also rich in history and color, thereby presenting it as the excellent location for people getting married or for others the sole purpose of tourism.

Spain is situated in the temperate zone, and its climate is defined by its extraordinary positioning in the world, its continental land mass as well as high mountainous terrain, producing one of the most varied and diverse climates in Europe.

The climate in Spain also has its role to play too. Since the climate varies, having an almost tropical weather in the South up to the North with a cooler and dry temperature, you can decide on the type of setting you desire on your special day. Here in Spain, there’s a proud Spanish expression that says ‘Quien dice España dice todo’ translated to mean ‘he who says Spain says everything,’ little wonder it’s a common sight to see more tourists and non-residents pick Spain as their most desired place to get married.

Every year, people who are looking to get married in Spain are favoring the Costa del Sol as it is increasingly becoming very popular as a go-to wedding destination if you wish to have your wedding on a bright and sunny day. This is for the most part due to its remarkably mild climate and the Costa del Sol still enjoys around 325 days of mostly sunshine each year – undeniably living up to the true potentials of its name, which when translated means ‘Coast of the Sun’!

While making preparations to have your wedding in Spain, you’ve made arrangements with your wedding planners – climate and weather conditions should also be taken into consideration, because although some provinces are currently experiencing water shortages, Spain still gets a lot of rain at times, in certain parts. Especially during months like March, April and October the probability of intermittent rainfall is higher than others. While the month of November is considered the month of transition and usually accompanied with greater downpours.

The months of March and April can be beautiful months to get married in the Costa del Sol as this is when temperatures are warm, but not hot, and there are a few showers, but not enough to stop two souls-entwined lovers from getting hitched.

To have a fantastic wedding, we recommend the months of May and September as the best time to get married in Costa del Sol, Spain. Although the climate can be unpredictable, there are lesser chances of rainfall when compared to November.

These months are the ideal period to have a wedding because they aren’t busy months, they come just before and immediately after the peak seasons, the cost of tickets, accommodations and venues are more flexible – significantly lower and the sun isn’t at its hottest during this period. It is definitely this blend of hot weather, warm sea temperature, high amount of sunshine hours and lesser chances of rainfall that attracts millions of visitors to the Costa del Sol every summer.

June, July, and August are peak seasons, and the temperatures are typically at the highest within these periods. The months with the most heat, but also the busiest months for tourism, large crowd and consequently the most expensive periods.

On the other hand, if you are looking at having your wedding in Spain during the winter, December, January, and February would be an ideal period for it, as it has some relatively warm and sunny weather and habitually pleasant enough for most activities. However, on an average December tends to be the coldest month.

Picking the venue is nearly as significant as picking the bride or groom. And this will also depend on the number of guests you plan on inviting to the wedding and of course what you can afford.

There are a lot of great, super incredible, out of this world locations in Costa del Sol, venues like Mijas, Marbella, Estepona, Sotogrande, Tarifa, and Inland just to mention a few that you can use for your wedding, and we can recommend the best venues for you.

The jewel in the crown of the Costa del Sol and the most famous landmark is Marbella which is the playground of the rich and famous, especially Puerto Banus where international celebrities are spotted throughout the peak season.

Particularly, Marbella is the most visited city in Spain is renowned for its abundant sunshine – during the height of summer; you can anticipate enjoying 12 – 14 hours of glorious and uninterrupted sunshine each day.
