Planning a wedding in Andalusia
Andalusia offers a wedding with a strong sense of place: whitewashed cortijos, courtyards with fountains, orange trees and evenings that start late and run long. Spring and autumn bring warm days without the summer heat, and Málaga and Seville have flights from across Europe.
When to marry
April to June and September to October are the favoured months. July and August are very hot inland, in Seville and Córdoba especially; the coast stays milder. In Seville, Holy Week and the April Fair fill hotels, so check the dates before choosing yours.
Getting guests there
Málaga has the most international flights; Seville, Granada and Jerez have their own airports too. The AVE high-speed train links Madrid with Córdoba, Seville and Málaga. Many venues are outside the towns, so plan transfers for guests.
Cortijos and haciendas
Cortijos and haciendas, the farm estates of the countryside, often with a chapel, courtyards and olive groves. In the towns, palaces and hotels in old mansions with Moorish-style patios. Many estates have rooms for family and close friends.
The legal side
A civil marriage in Spain generally requires at least one partner to be Spanish or resident. Couples from abroad usually marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony at the venue. A church wedding is possible, but involves paperwork with both parishes.

How are these venues chosen and ordered?
By documented renown first, then by how fully each venue is documented (photographs, rooms, capacities), never by payment: venues do not pay to appear and the guide takes no commission. How we select venues.
Can foreigners get legally married in Andalusia?
In most cases a civil wedding in Spain requires one partner to be Spanish or resident there. Couples from abroad usually register their marriage at home first and hold a symbolic ceremony in Andalusia, which can take place anywhere at the venue.
When is the best time for a wedding in Andalusia?
Spring, from April to June, and autumn, from September to October. July and August are very hot inland, especially around Seville and Córdoba; if you marry in summer, the coast and an evening ceremony are wiser choices.
Which airport is best for a wedding in Andalusia?
Málaga has the widest choice of international flights and suits the coast, Ronda and Granada. Seville is closer for venues in the west and around the city. Granada and Jerez are smaller airports with fewer routes.
