CEREMONY & RECEPTION

We will be kicking the weekend off with some drinks and nibbles down on the beach at a chiringuito (beach bar). We've visited this spot a few times to make sure the beer is cold enough and think it's more than appropriate for a little fiesta to ease into the weekend's proceedings.
We have lined up cervezas and wine, accompanied by some tapas, which we hope will keep you fed and watered for the evening.
Come in whatever you fancy. Do bear in mind you will be standing/dancing on sand for the evening
The lovely warm Mediterranean is within 20 metres, so a good opportunity for the first dip of the trip.
There are several local taxi companies, but we recommend booking in advance.
There is also plenty of free public parking within a short walk of the bar.
We are getting married at Cortal Gran, a castle located in the beautiful Costa Brava countryside and a short drive from Roses, L'Escala and miles and miles of lush beach.
Interesting story. When we started exploring the area to look for venues, we confidently agreed that we didn't want to get married in a castle, so were thrilled to find Cortal Gran and rejoiced in how idyllic the location was and how we'd found our perfect rustic Catalan masia. It was an outright winner!
Thank you to the close friend that pointed out it is, in fact, a fortified medieval castle. We're bloody excited all the same.

Most importantly, we'd love you to come as colourfully dressed as you possibly can.
- Caballeros: suits/blazers (no ties necessary)
- Damas: dresses/suits (no ties necessary)
ATENCIÓN: we are getting married in peak summer (sorry!), so it is likely to be very hot during the day (25 - 30°c), although it should be cooling down by the time wedding gets started. The entire wedding will be held outside, but there will be plenty of shade for the hotter part of the day.
We hope to provide bus/minibus transport to and from the wedding for people that are staying within 20 minutes of the venue and will be able to give more details in due course. Please let us know where you have booked to stay so that we can try to include you in the bus route!
There are several local taxi companies, but we recommend booking this in advance.
There is a car park at the venue if you will be driving.
