Exclusive castle for weddings in the old town of Tarragona

Highlights

There are so many things to look forward to when having a destination wedding in Spain. One of them is having an authentic encounter with Spanish culture and a relaxing experience enjoying the views of the Spanish landscapes.

This wedding castle just ten minutes from a forest in front of the sea in the port city of Tarragona guarantees no less than astounding Mediterranean views and a close encounter with historic sites and locals from traditional Spanish villages.

The castle is made for the most special occasions, offering exceptional indoor and outdoor spaces for wedding ceremonies, banquets, and special events facing the sea.

History

If you’re looking for a place that breathes history for your destination wedding in Spain, you will not go wrong with this castle in Tarragona.

Since the 11th century, the sector of Tamarit village where the castle is located has been of national cultural interest. It housed and protected significant structures like the church and the abbey from attacks and conquests.

A watchtower was built for added protection until the castle and the whole sector were enclosed by walls built from coastal rocks to fortify the area. This fortification was the reason why the castle and the village have been strongly preserved for centuries.

Ceremony

History has truly been embedded in every rock attached to the castle, and you can sense that when you get married here. Whether it’s the spacious outdoor area with a garden, the courtyard, or the pool area, every ceremony spot of the castle breathes history.

Couples who love a coastal backdrop for the ceremony should pick the terrace perched on the rocky edge of the castle right next to the Mediterranean sea.

You can have a civil ceremony at the main square of the old town with a purely medieval ambiance because of the century-old brick-walled castles and structures surrounding the outdoor area.

A solemn religious ceremony, on the other hand, is possible inside the 11th-century Romanesque church in the village. Whatever type of ceremony you need and want, there’s a perfect place in the castle for you.

Reception

Right after saying your I dos in your favorite spot in the castle, you can bring the celebration to the banquet hall with a huge open lounge, sufficient natural lighting, and a dance floor for the program and the celebration.

The banquet hall can accommodate up to 300 guests, but you can also bring a smaller group for your intimate wedding. Smaller groups can occupy the indoor part of the hall or the outdoor area, depending on your choice.

Expect no less than a sumptuous feast with Mediterranean dishes prepared using traditional cooking techniques in a world-class presentation. Above all, you can make special requests to the castle’s chef to make your dining experience most suitable for your taste.

Photoshoot

Now we go down to the part of your wedding day that will take your breath away. While your guests are enjoying the sumptuous feast in the banquet hall, you can sneak out and enjoy your wedding photoshoot with breathtaking views in the background.

Walk towards the beach for a seaside photoshoot with the endless horizon in sight, or simply scour the area to find spots where you can pose next to the brick walls of the castle and those with sprawling greenery.

You can even go back to the terrace where you had a seaside ceremony so you can have the place to yourself and have your photos taken without the crowd. You can also walk along the streets of Tarragona and explore the other scenic venues within the village.

This wedding castle has so much to offer for your destination wedding in Spain. Instead of admiring this venue from afar, get in touch with us and find out how you can get married here.
