The reason to book a castle over a finca or hotel is usually the same: the day naturally breaks into acts.

Two things people worry about that they shouldn't. Cold: every castle in our portfolio has proper HVAC, the character stays, the goosebumps don't. Kitchen quality: castle kitchens are usually more professional than boutique hotel kitchens, because they've been rebuilt for high-volume events.

One thing to plan for: booking window. Spain has maybe 30 castle venues that work for weddings. Saturdays in June and September go 15 to 18 months out. If you want a castle wedding for a specific summer, start the search a full year before the calendar year begins.
