5 Reasons to Base Your Wedding Plans in Lanzarote

February 20, 2018

 

 
With its stunning sunsets, beautiful beaches and year-round balmy climate, Lanzarote is a perfect destination if you’ve got something to celebrate – and it’s ideal if that something is an upcoming wedding. This article will explain how the island is perfectly catered towards every aspect of a wedding celebration, from the ceremony itself, to accommodating guests and the honeymoon afterwards.
 
A range of ceremony options
 
A beachside wedding is the dream for many, and Lanzarote weddings certainly don’t disappoint on that front, with several beachside venues offering seaside services. If you’d prefer a volcanic experience, the Jameos Del Agua are a volcanic cave system that has been converted into a unique venue space on the north end of the island – a truly unforgettable place to tie the knot. If you’re looking for a more traditional service, Lanzarote boasts a number of beautiful, authentic churches – our pick of the bunch would be the historic Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadelupe in the well-preserved former capital, Teguise.

Easily accommodate the family
 
In Lanzarote, luxury villas are a fantastic option when planning a wedding that requires a number of guests to be accomodated in comfort. Our Villa Ocean View and Villa Princesa Irene accommodation options sleep up to 10 people each – so that’s a large wedding party already catered for in just two villas!
 
Keeping the bride and groom separate before the big day is an easy task, as all our villas in Lanzarote are private – but not too far apart to cause logistical problems. This is ideal for adhering to tradition but keeping practicality in mind.
 
The surprising price
 
Weddings have become incredibly lucrative events in the UK, with the average price for a ceremony currently at an all time high, meaning a ceremony in sunnier climes is looking more and more like a good financial decision to make. With the added bonus of almost guaranteed great weather, it’s well worth considering Lanzarote as a wedding venue before you finalise your plans in the UK.
 
Before the wedding…
 
A Lanzarote stag do is a fantastic option. Resort towns such as Puerto Del Carmen offer it all for large groups, with typical sunshine fun available such as watersports alongside paintballing and quad biking. Alternatively, a lazy day in a beachside café is perfect way to relax and soak up the local culture. The nightlife across the island is spectacular, with bars and clubs open until dawn, many of which specialise in accommodating large groups. Whatever the pace of your big pre-wedding bash, Lanzarote can perfectly accommodate you.

…And after the wedding
 
Consider a one-bed, ultra private villa for your perfect Lanzarote honeymoon.The quieter, more romantic southern end of the island is ideal to get away from it all. Playa Blanca, with its dreamy views of Fuerteventura, is the ideal spot to sip sangria and enjoy your time as newlyweds. The Timanfaya National Park is an exciting, otherworldly place to go for an exploratory hike (or even a romantic camel ride) if the view and your private pool aren’t enough to satiate your appetite for paradise. In the evening, explore the wide selection of beachfront restaurants, such as the appropriately named Romantica, one of our top recommendations.
 
Whether it’s a stag, hen, honeymoon or entire wedding, browse our wide variety of Lanzarote villas to create unforgettable memories.
