Rainy Day Barcelona Vineyard Wedding

March 28, 2022 | kailey

With rows of vine-covered trellises, beautifully landscaped gardens, and an extraordinary medieval castle backdrop—the historic Torre del Veguer was the picturesque setting for Daniel and Garret’s Barcelona vineyard wedding. Surrounded by their loved ones, the two dashing grooms celebrated their special day with an incredible view and a cozy romantic vibe.

The couple originally planned to have their ceremony outdoors but moved it to the century-old stone cellar of the estate because of the weather. Between the scattered petals, the loose floral arrangements and foliage, with the glowing candles and fairy lights around the wine barrels—the last minute change worked out perfectly because their ceremony was absolutely nothing short of magical. 

The couple wanted to highlight the scenery with a tented reception overlooking the vineyards. Featuring a tablescape filled with flowers and lush foliage, they dined under a canopy of string lights. The couple and their guests danced all night and had the best time with the people they love the most. Keep scrolling to see every beautiful detail and emotion captured by Oliver Viladoms Studio

Just Married Barcelona Head Planner Ana Winward Shares Her Thoughts On This Barcelona Vineyard Wedding

The ceremony was originally planned in the vineyard, between the vines, but we had to move it indoors because of the rain—this meant moving the ceremony to the cellar. Daniel, who was very worried about the weather, actually said he thought that it was meant to be because of the romantic feel that the indoor ceremony had.

My advice for soon-to-be married couples—plan as much as possible before arriving at your destination. But as soon as your  friends and family start to arrive, enjoy your time with them and relax. Us planners have everything under control so that you can enjoy yourselves.

Welcome Bags To Start Their Barcelona Vineyard Wedding On A Happy Note

Each guest received a welcome bag with a bottle of red wine, a parma ham, a cheese sachet, and a packet of grissini. The grooms wanted to thank them for making the trip and surprised them with the gifts at the hotel.

Heartfelt Ways They Personalized Their Ceremony

A very good friend officiated while family and friends did speeches in the ceremony. 

Serving Dessert Buffet and Sweet Treats

There was a dessert buffet table with a selection of mini desserts, and of course, with being in Spain, mini churros and chocolate. 

Oliver Viladoms Studio Made Everyone Feel Comfortable Being Photographed

On the day of the wedding, it was relaxed as the photographer Oliver Viladoms Studio had already been at the welcome evening and rehearsal night, so they knew the grooms and the crowd well. All the guests felt comfortable with their company as they had met them days before the wedding.

A Charlton Hall Wedding That Was One For The Books

Every single person came up to us and told us it was the most fun they’d ever had. There was so much love and joy all day. We’re just really proud that we managed to put together something that we loved so much and everyone else did too. 

Supporting Wedding Vendors Who Are Also Their Friends

We’re really proud of our vendors. They were all personal friends of ours and it was really important that we supported our friends and independent businesses.

How The Perfect Venue Saved Money On Wedding Decor

It was really important to us that our three dogs be there, so we found dog-friendly locations in the North East. Charlton Hall was only the second venue we looked at but we just fell in love instantly. It captured our style perfectly and knew we wouldn’t need to do anything to it when it came to decor for the day, which helped us save money. Everyone thought we’d styled it ourselves because it suited us so well.

The Bride Surprised Guests With An Epic Walk Down The Aisle

I hadn’t told anyone except Greg what song I was going to walk down the aisle to. I’ve always loved “Faith” by George Michael and it seemed so perfect. It started off with the traditional organ music then it kicked into the pop intro of the song. I heard everyone burst out laughing when they realized what song it was while I was waiting outside to make my entrance. It was exactly what I wanted—a reminder that nothing about our day was going to take itself too seriously.

Getting Their Guests To Mingle While Eating

We decided we didn’t want a traditional three-course meal, as we wanted our guests to be able to mingle and chat, so we went for a street food buffet. We also had quite a mix of vegan, vegetarian, and meat-eating guests. We wanted to make sure everyone was equally catered for. The venue had some fantastic options for us to choose from—slider burgers, nachos, hot dogs, and beyond. Everyone we spoke to said they really enjoyed the food.

Dan McCourt Perfectly Captured Natural And Unguarded Moments

Dan was an absolutely brilliant photographer. I swear he was solely responsible for getting me down the aisle on time. He made us feel so comfortable that we didn’t even notice him taking pictures which we loved. He managed to capture so many special moments. Every single photo of us and our guests captured our personalities perfectly. He knew exactly where to put us and how to make us feel comfortable. I couldn’t recommend anyone better.

Advice For Creating A Wedding That Is Authentic And Fun

Don’t take it too seriously and don’t get tied down by what you think you should have when you’re wedding planning. The celebration needs to feel authentically you. And make a wedding planning spreadsheet—it’s truly a lifesaver.

Congratulations to Faith and Greg on their fun, colorful, and edgy Charlton Hall wedding! And big thanks to Dan McCourt for capturing the vibe and energy of their special day.

Looking through this celebration it’s easy to see that your wedding venue sets the vibe for the entire celebration. To make the task a little easier, working with a planner can help find the best fit for your vision, guest count, and budget. And just like Faith and Greg, it’s important to choose a venue that feels right for your personality and style. At the end of the day, your wedding should reflect you and your spouse in every way
