A passport and remember to arrive to the airport at least 3 hours early. For your passport, check the expiration date because you need 6 months left after your end travel date.
A lot of places will take a card, but it is always a good idea to have a little cash on hand. Check with your bank to see if they can order it for you. Also, make sure to let your bank know that you will be traveling outside the country.
You can fly into Barcelona, which is airport code BCN. From there, you will need to rent a car to get out to the wedding venue, which is approximately 90 minutes north of the city.
Kayak and Skyscanner allow you to look at multiple carriers at one time. It allows you to customize the take off/land times, construct multi-leg trips, and select number of stops. Check out multiple days for possible travel. Norwegian Airlines is a discount flyer that makes trips only on certain days. Look at the company site first to see the fare calendar. This will give you an idea of what days they fly and when it’s the cheapest. We suggest that if you are going to book inter-Europe flights to explore additional places before/after the wedding, book those separate. Budget airlines like EasyJet and RyanAir are cheap to fly. For example, the flight from Paris to Barcelona is about $60. These are no frills airlines, so keep that in mind.
For Spain, no. All you need is a valid US driver’s license and your passport. However, if you are going to drive into another country the conditions may be different.
Barcelona and the surrounding area is a great place to explore. Head over to the “Things to Do” tab to find some of our recommendations.
It should be gorgeous! The highs are in the upper 70s (78 average) and lows in the upper 60s. Pack a jacket or sweater for the evenings. Also, make sure to bring a swimsuit if you want to enjoy the pool/hot tub the day after the wedding.
Lock your doors and don't accept help! HAHA! In Spain, your rental car will have a reflective vest that must be worn while changing a tire. Make sure the doors of your vehicle are locked, especially while in the city to ensure the security of your belongings. If not, we can direct you to the Consulate. We are very familiar with where it is located and can even give you a dining recommendation nearby.
