WHAT TO WEAR

We’ve created a few moodboards to capture the style and spirit of the weekend.

They’re meant as inspiration to help you get a feel for the tone of each event. Choose what makes you feel your best while staying within the dress code.

THE WEDDING DAY

Formal Attire

Ladies,

We invite you to wear an elegant long dress or a floor-length gown.

Jewel tones, soft pastels, metallics, romantic prints, and classic black are all welcome. It’s a night to celebrate, so choose something you love, from bold color and beautiful texture to a touch of drama.

Since parts of the venue have gravel and grass, we suggest formal footwear with a sturdy or block heel to stay comfortable throughout the evening.


Gentlemen,

A formal suit is recommended. Classic tones such as black, navy, charcoal, or another dark shade you prefer are all great options.

Tuxedos aren’t required but are always welcome for those who’d like to wear one.

For comfort in warmer weather, we suggest breathable fabrics like lightweight wool or cotton blends to stay cool throughout the evening.


THE WELCOME RECEPTION

Casual Chic Attire

Ladies,

Effortless yet elegant is the mood. Think relaxed, polished, and chic.

Midi or maxi dresses, tailored jumpsuits, or elevated separates are all perfect options. Light, breathable fabrics work beautifully in soft tones, playful prints, or textured details.

The goal is simply to feel comfortable, confident, and put-together.


Gentlemen,

Aim for a look that feels relaxed but polished. The atmosphere is smart, comfortable, and warm-weather friendly.

Tailored trousers or chinos paired with a button-down, lightweight blazer, or smart polo work well. Loafers or dress shoes complete the look.

Breathable fabrics like linen or cotton blends will keep you comfortable into the night.


WHERE TO STAY

Below are a few hotel recommendations to help with planning your stay.

Castell de Sant Marçal is about 30 minutes from central Barcelona, so staying near Plaça Catalunya is especially convenient.

Round-trip transportation will be provided on the wedding day, with pick-up and drop-off in central Barcelona. More details will be shared closer to the date.
