Our wedding will take place on Friday, June 19, 2026, at Castell de Peralada in Peralada, Spain. The ceremony will be held at the Carmen Church, followed by celebrations on the castle grounds.
We recommend arriving in Spain by Thursday, June 18 (morning or early afternoon), as we’ll be hosting welcome drinks that day to kick off the wedding celebrations. The wedding will take place on Friday, June 19, and most guests plan to depart Saturday, June 20 or later. If your schedule allows, we highly encourage staying a bit longer to explore the Costa Brava or Barcelona.
