Ceremonies in Spain

Hola Liz,

Bradley y yo queríamos darles las gracias por llevar a cabo nuestra ceremonia de boda en España. Desde el inicio del proceso fueron muy amables y excelentes con las actualizaciones y la comunicación.
La forma en que creó nuestra propia ceremonia personalizada a partir del cuestionario que completamos fue perfecta para nosotros y nuestra familia.
Nos encantó encender la vela en la ceremonia para mi papá y otros seres queridos que fallecieron, esto fue una parte importante para mí y lo hizo muy especial en nuestro gran día.
Nos hiciste sentir a gusto y tranquilos durante toda la ceremonia, no podríamos haber pedido más,
Muchas gracias Liz

Hi Liz and Tony

Omg we can not be any happier with the whole of the ceremony and wedding. It’s was just perfect from beginning to end. Absolutely everything was perfect! The ceremony, the setting, the food and drinks were all just perfect and delicious. The music and Juan were great played everything I wanted and he just knew what to play and when. The staff were so friendly and professional. I changed my colour scheme last minute soon as I saw the blue shade of the table and chair decoration. It was no problem. The dancers were brilliant! We had so many compliments from our friends about the whole evening. You and Tony got many compliments. Tony was fantastic and we could see used every opportunity to get shots and was so helpful, just great. We look forward to seeing the photos. You Liz kept us calm, we loved how you handled it all and us! We cannot thank you two enough for everything. Of course I will recommend you both, yes use any photos you want on websites or Facebook. We look forward to seeing the photos.

Allen and I are so so happy with the whole wedding and we want to thank you from the bottom of our heart for marrying us, for your advice and recommendations.just everything.

Love Sue and Allen. Taylor xx

Thank you Liz, for conducting and planning such a lovely wedding ceremony for us.
All our guests commented on how personal and emotional the service was
and it was exactly as I envisioned.
You were a dream to work with.

Thank you again.
Katie and Grant xxxx married May 2023, Velez, Spain

Liz, we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for conducting such a special ceremony.
From the very first email, I felt like we had known each other for years.
The ceremony was so personal to us, not just the same script you use for everyone.
All our guests commented on how special it was and how lovely you came across.
Any couple would be lucky to have you conducting their ceremony.
Thanks so much for everything!
Stacey & Mark, married June 2023, Torrequebrada, Spain.

We were searching for over 3 years to find a country and place where we wanted to get married and have our celebration. We knew we wanted to get married on a beach and it would be a relaxed affair. We came across Liz from a few searches on the internet (and finally narrowing down the countries we would consider). We really like the different places and packages that Liz could provide so we got in touch with her for more information. Liz was amazing with the detail, knowledge and prices of the ceremony and she took the time to get to know us and what we would like. Liz provided a lot of communication for us in terms of the food at the restaurant, the service and the florist which we are grateful for as that took the stress away in terms of translation. The wedding celebration was just what we wanted it to be and Liz brought our vision and dream to life with the setting, set up and ceremony. All of our guests said how stunning the location and restaurant was and how lovely Liz's ceremony was. Liz made us feel very welcomed and provided a romantic and slightly humorous ceremony which is what we wanted. Her husband was the photographer and he made us feel at ease and took incredible photos of the day. We highly recommend anyone looking at getting married in Spain to get in contact with Liz as she made our wedding celebration dream come true! Thank you again Liz!

I would not hesitate to recommend Liz and Tony Wilkinson and Ceremonies in Spain. Our vow renewal was absolutely amazing.

From the very first moment I contacted Liz, she replied promptly answering my many questions. Liz made organising a wedding/vow renewal easy from thousands of miles away and quickly allayed any fears.

The whole experience was very smooth, professional and efficient.

Liz recommended La Cupula lounge in Benalmadena Pueblo as the perfect venue for our vow renewal. It was so beautiful. A rustic traditional Spanish restaurant set in beautiful gardens up in the hills with fantastic views of the coastline. We chose to hire their traditional white and blue gazebo to renew our vows then had a fantastic meal afterwards. Our ceremony was at 6pm so we had some photographs taken by Liz's lovely husband Tony in the daylight and as the light changed in the beautiful surroundings gardens.

La Cupula is all lit up at night so you really get a mixture of photo opportunities and I am very much looking forward to seeing the pics!

Liz was extremely helpful in arranging our ceremony and putting together our many requests. The result was a very emotional and humorous ceremony that really suited us to a T!

Liz took care of arranging the venue, flowers, the cake and rescued us after a mishap with our planned music, and even recommended a hair and makeup artist. She says she isn't a wedding planner but she really is in my eyes.

We decided to use Tony's services the following morning for a trash the dress shoot at sunrise on a jetty with waves crashing around us. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Tony took loads of different shots. He was very easy to deal with and directed us with ideas for some good shots. He was very pleasant to chat to and definitely put us at ease. We are not ones for photos but he was very patient with us and I am sure it will result in some really stunning pictures.

During the times we have stayed in Spain I have seen various wedding ceremonies take place. I can honestly put my hand on my heart and say none, in my opinion were as nice as ours. We both rate Liz and Tony so highly and cannot thank them enough for the fabulous day they helped to create.

Liz was incredible to work with and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s very organized and made the entire process easy. Our wedding was so special and our guests keep telling us how much they enjoyed the ceremony. It was truly special. We absolutely loved working with her!
Thank you,
Amy & Derek, married September 2022, Castle Benalmadena, Spain

We are not exaggerating when we say our experience with Liz and Tony was perfect. We have never been to Europe and had no recommendations on elopement packages. We did some research and found Ceremonies in Spain and Tony Wilkinson Photography online. Liz responded to our questions right away, gave various ceremony options, and asked questions to ensure the elopement would be unique to us.

Liz and Tony live a few hours from Sevilla, Spain where we planned to have the ceremony. They arrived a day early to explore the area and find the best locations for us. They found the most beautiful spots at the Plaza de Espana. Liz performed a heartfelt ceremony that made us laugh and cry. She has a calming energy too so we felt really comfortable the entire time. We do not consider ourselves to be photogenic, however, the pictures Tony took were stunning. He captured our essence and paid close attention to detail to make each shot beautiful. They carried around all of our belongings, told us sweet and funny stories, and gave us all the time we needed to have a memorable day.

We are so grateful to Liz and Tony. We had the absolute most perfect day with them.

What can we say about Liz except AMAZING! Our wedding was delayed 2 years causing a lot of stress for us but Liz was always there to reassure us and make us feel a lot better. We first got in contact with Liz in 2018 to book and discuss our wedding and from then on she was always in contact with us making things easy and run very smoothly. She helped with every part of our wedding and made our day the day it was. We honestly can not recommend Liz highly enough and everyone she put us in contact with was also outstanding. All our guests commented on how good the ceremony was! We can’t thank Liz enough for making our day so special

From the first moment we got in touch with Liz we knew we were in safe hands. Although never meeting in person before our wedding day, we soon realised it was not an issue as Liz is amazing at gathering all the necessary information and creating a fantastic script to make the ceremony one of the most memorable moments in our lives. When the day came, the professionalism and attention to detail Liz demonstrated was second to none – the ceremony was absolutely beautiful, and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thank you so much Liz, you are amazing at what you do; we couldn’t have wished for a better ceremony!

Mark & Donna

We have been back home for a few weeks now but wanted to say the biggest thank you to Liz for an amazing ceremony for our vow renewal! Liz has been so helpful and professional and made us feel at ease with all preparations. The whole day was magical the reception Liz had suggested was brilliant.we all had a wonderful time. Our memories will stay with us for ever.

I would definitely recommend Liz you won't find anyone better.

After investigating a few options for getting married in Spain, we stumbled across Ceremonies in Spain which immediately jumped out at us because of the fantastic feedback it was receiving. Over the following 2 years, our wedding like many others, was subject to delay due to the Covid pandemic. While this may have stressed other couples, Liz was very quick to put our minds at ease with regular communication via emails and video calls.

All of our postponed arrangements were efficiently moved to a new date the following year with no fuss. Liz handled all of the details from the ceremony itself, to Jesus the guitarist, the venue, the flowers, Tony the photographer, and she even gave recommendations for hair & make up and ensured we were kept up to date.

On the day itself, because of the work Liz had put in, everything was perfect. Tony, who was the photographer, was also fantastic and helped settle some pre wedding nerves.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Liz to anyone else who is thinking of getting married in Spain. She did a fantastic job and went above and beyond to make our day very special.

Thank you Liz

We contacted Liz after looking at several different celebrants on line, as we were travelling from Scotland to Spain, and had no idea how to start planning for our wedding in Mijas and were a little nervous and apprehensive.
Choosing Liz was the best decision we made in all our wedding planning! From our first contact, Liz was a true professional and immediately arranged a video call with us, putting our minds at ease,
with her lovely manner and her enthusiasm for our wedding.
She took us step by step through the process and provided us with extensive guidance on what could be included as part of our ceremony.
Liz provided us with the opportunity to create a ceremony, that was bespoke and personal to us and included moments of tears and moments of laughter
that Liz delivered in a professional and intimate w she came across that she knew us well as a couple, and she did, having communicated with us on such a regular basis before the event.
We were also supported by Liz in choosing a venue providing us with several options and having choose a Spanish Castillo (Castle) Liz organised everything at the castle, exclusive use for our guests,
Including a flower archway and much more.
Anytime I contacted Liz by email or WhatsApp, she responded immediately which gave us a great deal of comfort living in Scotland
and being unable to travel to Spain during the preparation period.
We used Tony Wilkinson Photography for our photographer, who was recommended by Liz and we are delighted with our Wedding Photographs,
Tony has a gift that captured very special moments of our day.
I would highly recommend Liz as a Celebrant,
she was a true and outstanding professional throughout the whole process
and made our wedding day very very special. We cannot thank you enough.

I can’t thank Liz or recommend her enough. Her communication from day one was super, the questionnaire provided really helped us shape our ceremony. She provided a great list of reading suggestions. Her delivery of the ceremony on the day was beautiful and we will never forget it how personal it was for us! Thanks to Liz for making our ceremony so special!

We loved working with Liz on our ceremony wording and rituals, Liz is so pleasant and understands every need or request without question.

We felt completely at ease on the day, it is really clear that Liz has a lot of experience as she guided us through every step of the ceremony both leading up to the wedding and also on the day. She went over and above to ensure everything went smoothly on the day and always with a smile.

Our mothers loved the candle ritual, it was a very special moment for them both. Our guests loved that you spoke in both English and Spanish, we also loved that the guests laughed out loud as Jesus drank from the quaich, nobody was expecting him to drink the lot, that is such a fun ritual to include.

We have some amazing memories from the ceremony that we will never forget.

Liz, thanks for everything!

Victoria & Jesus x married July 2023, Benahavis, Spain.

Just wanted to send you an email and express our gratitude for performing our ceremony at Rancho.
We wanted a simple, a bit witty and intimate ceremony, and I think we ended up having exactly what we asked for.

The process of writing our ceremony script was also really smooth; your suggestions were appreciated and I think you were able to provide everything we needed to write our ceremony the way we wanted to.

I appreciate you helping me with my dress as well ;)

We got married yesterday and Liz was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She looked after every detail. We eloped and the ceremony was exactly how we hoped it would be. We would highly recommend Liz for your special day, Sam & Declan, married July 2022, Benalmadena, Spain.

Liz was absolutely amazing!

She was very organised and wanted to have the full script written a few weeks before so that we could see what was going to be said.
The ceremony she had written was lovely!
She was very calming on the day and made us feel very relaxed.
I would strongly recommend Liz for anyone who needs a Celebrant.

Thank you very much Liz for making our day so special!

We began planning for our vow renewals ceremony many months ago and I’m very thankful I came across Liz’s website.

We immediately got the feeling that we were in very safe and capable hands. Liz’s advance planning of every small detail made the day come together in the most beautiful and special way.

Each and every one of our guests were so impressed by the combination of the necessary formalities with good humour and fun. This was purely down to the way Liz performed the ceremony and interacted with everybody.

I would also like to mention Liz’s husband, Tony, who is a professional photographer. He came up with some very novel ideas for our photographs while keeping us completely relaxed.

Thank you so much Liz and Tony

Thank you so so much for making our day everything we wanted and more; we're both so glad we chose you. It's a huge decision choosing a wedding celebrant especially when planning a wedding abroad and you were amazing, perfect even and I don't use that word very often! From the off you helped us structure the ceremony how we wanted it even when we weren't sure what that was! Sal was absolutely convinced she wouldn't be able to deliver her personal vows but I'm in no doubt it was your calming reassurance on the day that gave her the strength to do it not to mention all your help and guidance in putting them together in the first place. As for Tony, we have yet to see photos but he too was brilliant and we have no doubt they'll be amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and he never stopped! One of our guests is a very keen photographer and he couldn't believe how much running around he did just to get into the right position. For anyone thinking about getting married in Andalucia you need look no further than Liz and Tony for both the ceremony and photography, they're a great team.

Once again, thank you both.can't wait to see the pictures!

Mr & Mrs Hemingway xx married July 2023, Mijas, Spain.

I came across Liz whilst doing an internet search for a celebrant for our wedding in 2020. The best thing I did was email her with my queries. She got back to me promptly and that was the start of a journey which unfortunately included 2 cancelled weddings due to covid. I was able to meet Liz and she put me at complete ease whilst I asked a million questions and she guided us through the process to achieve an amazing ceremony. So many guests commented on how it was the best wedding service they had been to and it was full of humour which suited us to a tee. The added bonus was that Liz’s husband is a wedding photographer and is as equally talented. All in all they both contributed to a wedding day that was the best day of our lives!

From start to finish Liz was truly amazing, any questions we had she was so prompt in her reply. After moving our wedding on many occasions due to covid, we finally got our dream day and Liz was so helpful along the way.

All of our guest have said how special and beautiful the ceremony was and how personal it was to us both. It really was a very special ceremony and such beautiful location: we would highly recommend Liz to anyone thinking of marrying in Spain.

We cannot thank you enough Liz for helping to make our day special and magical.

Thank you again

Natalie and Steve xxx

Liz, we are so grateful for your beautiful service at our wedding in Villa Moana.

You made us feel so uplifted, our day so magical and the whole process was so easy.

Your guidance in the lead up, your advice just before and your deliverance on the day.just made it such a beautiful experience for the two of us.

And post that, the comments afterwards, were that it was the most personal and romantic wedding that many of our guests had ever been to.

We thank you, for everything, for your beautiful words, your organisational skills and for making us the happiest couple.ever! Thank you x

Thank you so much for being our celebrant and for renewing our vows in such a picturesque, unique and intimate setting, at the stables of Cortijo El Aguilon. The atmosphere was magical and funnily enough, the fact my two-year-old had a tantrum minutes before the start, and had to be carried by Dad throughout the ceremony, only made it more sweet, tender and wholesome. The guests were extremely moved by this unexpected incident, as well as by the ceremony itself, which felt very personal, heartwarming and a little quirky at times too, which was exactly what we wanted! I can't wait to see the video recording to relive the moment and listen to it all over again. It was all truly wonderful! Carolina & Jan 11.06.2022

Our ceremony was probably our favourite moment of our wedding day and it was thanks to Liz. From the very start she made us feel so involved in creating the ceremony making sure it was very personal to us. Liz really tried to get to know us beforehand and it made a huge difference throughout. As a couple getting married abroad we had lots of nerves regarding the day but due to Liz going through absolutely everything with us a few weeks before the big day it put our minds at ease and we knew we had nothing to worry about. Liz made us feel so comfortable and calm throughout the ceremony meaning we were able to take in every detail. There is no two ceremonies the same she puts a lot of time and effort in to making each couples ceremony so personal to them and made us feel so special on the day. She is incredible at what she does. Thank you Liz

We arrived back to the UK today.
We would like say a special thank you to Liz, firstly for accepting to conduct the ceremony for us and also for arranging the castle, the flowers etc (they were absolutely gorgeous). Your organisation and professionalism helped to get everyone in the right place at the right time and kept everything running so smoothly alongside your wit and ability to make our story flow, kept everyone’s attention from the moment you spoke. All without any hitches. Along with the setting you made our dreams come true.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts
Suzanne and Dennis xx

Liz was fantastic and really made our wedding ceremony personal and very memorable! We had a meeting with Liz early on to discuss the ceremony and to answer a very detailed questionnaire that formed the basis of the ceremony script. Liz was very accommodating and worked brilliantly with us in getting to the final version which incorporated Bulgarian wedding traditions that we wished to include at the end of the ceremony. All of our guests loved the ceremony and were very touched by the sincerity and warmth in which it was delivered. Thank you very much Liz!

I cannot recommend Liz enough as a celebrant. She was extremely thorough which allowed her made a lot personal touches to our service to really allow our guests to get a sense of who we are as a couple. The service itself was delivered beautifully creating the perfect ceremony.
If you are getting married in Spain I would highly recommend her services you won’t regret it.

Liz did a fabulous job at our wedding. During the preparation, she was organised and methodical and took us through all we needed to know. We were able to tailor our ceremony to be exactly what we wanted so it felt special and personal.

On the wedding day she was professional, calm and engaged the crowd really well. We loved our ceremony, it was a really special event we’ll never forget, thanks Liz!

We couldn’t have asked for a better ceremony or celebrant.
Right from when Liz arrived she made us feel calm and in a safe pair of hands.
Everything went extremely smoothly and thanks to her attention to detail,
the words of the ceremony were meaningful and intimate.

The ceremony was absolutely perfect and we can’t thank you enough for all of your help and support.
Cameron keeps telling me how wonderful you were when you first arrived, keeping everything calm and controlled.

We had the most magical day and Liz was a huge part of that.

Thank you so so much again
Julie and Cameron x married October 2021, private villa.

Thank you so much to liz for making our day even more amazing than we ever could have imagined. Right from the first email I knew we were in very good hands. From organising the venue to my Flowers and always being there to answer any emails I sent and especially with us having to move our wedding because of covid twice. I honestly couldn't recommend liz enough. Our families were in awe of how beautiful the ceremony was, and the Vows you helped us write.

We had Tony to do our photograph's, and wow he out did himself. We still cannot believe he managed to capture our day so perfectly. He was so relaxed and had amazing ideas for our photos.

Honestly cannot believe how amazing our day was and it was all down to you to, Liz and Tony. Thank you so so much for everything.
