Elopement wedding planners in Spain: here’s what they do
When a couple decides to plan an elopement wedding, they tend to think that it is not necessary to plan a lot, but, although the amount of things that are necessary to prepare can be less, everything actually depends on how you want your elopement wedding.
If you want to travel with your wedding dress in a backpack with little else, and to end up on a mountain, then your wedding does not need too much preparation. However, if you want a big altar, to rent beautiful furnishings for the moment, or have a lighter banquet for the two of you, then you will need a little bit more planning.
An elopement wedding planner in Spain will do everything for you so that your wedding ends up being everything you wanted and imagined. These are the most important tasks:
- Design and coordinating the day of the elopement, making sure that everything goes smoothly.
- Connecting the couple with experienced suppliers in their trusted network. This can include any person, from the photographer to the ceremony officiant.
- Plan a day that embraces the couple and their interests and hobbies completely.
- Incorporate decorative elements that are authentic and unique to the couple.
- Explore the best and most remote places for couples to access on their big day.
- Find accommodation and activities to do during the stay at the destination.
- Create a budget and offer guidance on where to spend more and where to save.
- Frequently communicate with the couple during the planning process to inform them of everything and offer support where necessary.
How to know the style of my elopement wedding:
A good way to discover the style of your elopement wedding is to start with the two things you love doing. If you like to walk, nature and being in the fresh air, a good idea is to do the elopement wedding at sunrise in the mountains with a picnic afterwards. If, on the other hand, you are more relaxed and you want something more simple, maybe an elopement wedding on a beach with a celebration with champagne in the sand is a better option for you.
Also, when you think about eloping, what activities come to mind and what clothes do you imagine wearing? What photos inspire you? Finally, everything cuts down so that you feel like it has been adapted to you and the vision you have of the day of your dreams.
Think about the corners of our country that can be adapted to you and your personalities. Conduct an investigation to cut down the options for the backdrop of the ceremony, the places where you would like to stay and the experiences that you would like to enjoy. And tell your elopement wedding planner in Spain all about it! Because they also know the best experiences and plans to do in each place.
Elopement wedding planners adapt to everything until it is just as you imagine it. We try to get to know our couples on a personal level to get to know their style and vibe, so your wedding day will be authentic, meaningful and unforgettable.
In addition, we recommend that couples start by looking at popular wedding blogs, Pinterest, Instagram and anywhere else you can find inspiration for your elopement wedding. Once you know what you like and what you don’t, send us a list! Colour palettes, top inspiration photos, landscapes, bridal style, anything! This will help us to get to know your tastes better and we can adapt to them to find exactly what you want for your big day.
Tips when hiring a wedding planner in Spain:
First we recommend that you describe all the things that are important to you, for example, establish a budget that your wedding planner can take into account in order to include the most important elements or leave out things that are less significant to you.
Think about activities to do during the elopement wedding, because the best thing about eloping is that you can do exactly what you want and when you want: experience quad biking in the desert dunes of Fuerteventura, yachting in Mallorca or Ibiza, horse riding in Huelva, hot air ballooning in Toledo, visiting the lavender fields in Brihuega…! Do something memorable for the wedding day to make the most of the trip.
Be flexible, as most elopement weddings take place outdoors, the weather can play a big part in your day. Of course we all want perfect weather on the day, but be prepared for rain, snow, wind, humidity, insects, etc. The season of the year and the location are an important factor in these variables, especially in places in the north of Spain, such as Galicia, Asturias or the Basque Country. But, as long as you keep an open mind, your day will be just as perfect, even if it doesn’t go exactly as planned!
Consult with your elopement wedding planner in Spain about their experience in organising this type of wedding and hire the person who has given you the most confidence, with whom you have felt most comfortable and who has convinced you the most in all aspects.
Why you need an elopement wedding planner in Spain:
Because they take the stress away. They can give you amazing recommendations of local suppliers, stunning locations in your destination to match your overall theme, and simply be that third person on the day to run last minute errands. If you really want a day to relax without distractions, we definitely recommend you hire a planner – just come to Spain and enjoy yourself!
Working with an experienced planner in the destination you have chosen to get married in will take away any pressure and nerves in the days leading up to the big day. They will plan a day for you that is romantic and enjoyable without any stress, and will make sure that on the day you are in control of your emotions and give you maximum support.
Your elopement wedding planner will tell you the things you need to know that we didn’t even imagine might exist or that you would have to take into account, and do them for you! Many people don’t realise all the detailed logistics involved in an elopement wedding.
They will guide you through the endless options until you find the right one, knows the weather, humidity, rain, etc. and has a lot of suppliers that they know work impeccably in the different cities of our country: Madrid, Barcelona, Mallorca, Bilbao, Seville, Valencia…
You need someone who will be there for you that day, whatever happens on your elopement wedding day. Even on the way up a mountain to get married they will carry your dress and bouquet all the way. And if it’s raining on your wedding day, they’ll hold your umbrella, and if there are any mosquitoes in the area… your planner will keep them away!
