Tara & Troy

Liz, you really helped us to feel at ease and calm when we were both emotional and nervous!

The ceremony was beautiful, it felt really special and had the perfect balance of story telling. You helped re-frame having not so perfect weather as being good luck to us both. You were so organised and had our personalised vows ready and printed, this is something we will keep forever.

Thanks again for everything.

Tara & Troy, married June 2026, Velez, Malaga, Spain.

Alex & Lucy

As a British couple having a wedding in Spain without a wedding planner, Liz made her part extremely easy to deal with and was very approachable on the day. She was also flexible when it started to rain and plans were at risk!

She organised everything herself on the day with very little direction needed.

We had regular contact when required, and she provided clear drafts of what would be said during the ceremony.

Her delivery was clear and professional throughout, with no complaints at all. We would definitely recommend her if asked.

Charla & Jon

We couldn’t have asked for a better minister for our wedding ceremony. In the build up, we enjoyed how Liz’s questionnaire made us think about things
and she was on hand for video calls to discuss little bits.

Liz was clear, helpful, and made the whole process feel easy and well organised. She arranged the ceremony music perfectly, added a lovely touch of humour, and told our story so beautifully and personally.

She made our ceremony truly special, and we’re so grateful.

Thank You, Jon & Charla

Tamara & Oscar

Liz made this experience so special for us. But most importantly, she was transparent from the beginning about the process, dates, timing and price.  This kept me from turning into "Bridezilla" and reduced
the stress for hubby and I. 

Liz was patient with all of our questions and answered within a short time frame. I highly recommend her services for destination elopement.

Olivia & William

Liz offers truly bespoke and personal wedding celebrant services. She showed a genuine interest in our venue search and even incorporated the traditional Scottish Quaich ceremony — something not typically seen in Spain, which made it extra special.

At our request, we also met with her beforehand, which isn’t always the norm but added such a lovely personal touch. Liz is professional, warm, and clearly very experienced.

If you want a memorable ceremony where everything runs smoothly, you absolutely need Liz at your wedding!

Henrik & Nongyao

From start to finish, working with Liz was an absolute pleasure. She is incredibly organised, structured, and easy to communicate with.
From the very first meeting, she made us feel confident and calm throughout the whole planning process.
Liz was always quick to respond, attentive to every detail, and made sure we were updated and comfortable with each step along the way.

Her professionalism and warmth made it easy for us to trust her completely.
On our wedding day, everything flowed perfectly—every little detail came together
just as we had hoped. It was a beautiful, stress-free day that truly exceeded our expectations, and that’s all thanks to Liz.

She did an amazing job marrying us and making sure everything went smoothly from beginning to end. We couldn’t have asked for a better planner and officiant. We’ll always be grateful for the role she played in making our special day unforgettable.

Alan and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the truly wonderful marriage service you conducted for us. From the very first morning I emailed you, you were so helpful, responded so promptly, and nothing was ever too much trouble, even when I made last-minute changes!

Your calm and reassuring nature made us certain we had chosen the perfect celebrant to marry us.

A huge thank you also to Tony (Photographer), you were incredible. You kept us calm, made us laugh, and we can’t wait to see how beautifully you’ve captured our special day. Lauren absolutely loved being your photographer’s assistant too!

Thank you both so much for giving us the most magical day in the most perfect location

Oh my gosh where do we even start with Liz, our wedding day was made that extra bit special because of the incredible wedding ceremony that liz did for us, she was so warm and welcoming and brought that real presence of love.

Everyone instantly shared with us how much they loved the ceremony, she made not only us but everyone feel at ease and involved in something so special.

From the bottom of our hearts thank you, the ceremony was our favourite part!

Kaz & Hugh

'From the moment I made contact with Liz, I was confident that with her professional and friendly approach, I would have the perfect renewal ceremony. We wanted a simple 10 year renewal whilst on holiday near Marbella with family, that would be a complete surprise to them.

Liz was complicit along with the wonderful Oyana Beach Restaurant in delivering the perfect occasion for us, with family only getting to know what was going on when we both walked onto the beach wearing white. Liz was very helpful in suggesting readings and suggestions for vows and I would not hesitate suggesting Liz to officiate your wedding or renewal!

Liz absolutely nailed the vibe we were hoping to create on the day!

The ceremony struck the perfect balance—romantic, fun, and beautifully in tune with the relaxed atmosphere we’d envisioned. This was no coincidence. Liz took the time to guide us through a thoughtful and thorough discovery session beforehand, asking such well-crafted questions that really helped us uncover what mattered most to us as a couple.

We’re so grateful—thank you, Liz, from the bottom of our hearts!

Tina & Wayne

What can we say! We were blown away by Liz and Tony (Photographer) from Ceremoniesinspain.com

To put your trust into someone thousands of miles away is a big commitment. From the initial enquiry back in early 2024 and booking, Liz made it simple by helping us with choices and options, which is what we needed. A personal bespoke ceremony, communication was never any trouble.

Meeting up at the venue in June getting an insight to the castle, the tasters at the reception venue at the beach were all perfect. The staff worked so hard and the food drink and canapés were plentiful.

Our guests comments " magical, venue perfect, best food, best wedding they had been to, and everyone is still talking about it now.

Not forgetting Tony a true professional (Photographer).

A memory that will stay with us forever, at a fraction of the cost compared to the UK. Thank you so much for your support and understanding.

We booked Liz through our wedding planner and her service was great from start to finish, everything was well organised and her communication was excellent!

We were able to personalise our ceremony exactly how we wanted to and all of our guests said that the ceremony was brilliant. Booking from another country can leave you feeling apprehensive but no need to feel like this when you book Liz! Definitely recommend and thank you again

We are so pleased that we chose Ceremonies in Spain, Liz was absolutely amazing from day one when we booked her up until the day of our wedding vows renewal.

Everything was just perfect, Liz made us feel all relaxed and calm, everything we asked her to do from printing our words to saying a few words on our day was absolutely amazing . It really felt so romantic and flourishing and the weather was beautiful along with the beautiful decorated arch and the table signing, just all magical.

Thank you so much for making our day so special. Would definitely recommend Liz for your special occasion.

Liz was the most incredible celebrant on our big day. She delivered the such a beautiful ceremony and provided a sense of reassurance and encouragement when we were at our most nervous.
Liz has been so helpful throughout the whole of our planning process, with an attention to detail that ensured the ceremony reflected us as a couple.
I would highly recommend Liz, she truly was an integral part of our very special day.
Thanks again

Liz was absolutely incredible, we couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. From the very start, Liz made everything feel so relaxed and easy. She took the time to get to know us, our story, and somehow turned that into a ceremony that suited us perfectly.

The ceremony was funny, loving, and beautifully chilled, just perfect from start to finish.

Thank you Liz for helping us to make our day unforgettable.

I am so grateful that we found Liz when we decided to have our wedding in Spain. She helped organise so many things, was decisive and responsive even meeting up with us at the venue the year before.

The ceremony ran so smoothly and we loved that it was so personal including our own words and how we met etc. and some funny parts to make everyone laugh, this made the day so special.

Thank you Liz for helping us create a day we will never forget xx

Liz married my husband and I in sunny Costa Del Sol, at the Castle privately which was absolutely stunning, Liz also helped me with my flowers (also stunning) she supported with the photographer and videographer recommendations which also was great!

If I’m honest I couldn’t have done it without her, she always got back to me so quickly. During our ceremony she was so lovely about us and took all our information we gave her into a lovely ceremony.

Thank you for helping us make our day unforgettable

Thanks again Liz. Joanne & Michael married June 2025, Benalmadena, Spain

We cannot recommend liz enough!

She created a beautiful and personal ceremony for us with an unforgettable atmosphere that we will cherish forever. Some guests commented that it had been the nicest ceremony they have ever attended. We are biased but we totally agree.

Liz is extremely professional, prompt in her work ethic and such a lovely lady to work with. Her professionalism and fantastic communication made everything feel so effortless. Thank you for helping us to create a ceremony which included our Irish roots, beautiful tributes to our loved ones who are no longer with and for all your emails getting to know us so you could make the ceremony so personal.

Liz has such a lovely presence and you will not regret choosing her for your special day.

Much love liz, Yvonne and Dave xx married June 2025, Velez, Malaga.

Beth & Charlie

We recently got married at the Castle in Benalmádena, and the day was nothing short of magical. With just the two of us and our two children, we wanted something intimate, meaningful, and unforgettable — and thanks to Liz and Tony, that’s exactly what we got (we booked the package with celebrant Liz & photographer Tony).

From the very beginning, Liz was warm, thoughtful, and truly attentive. She took the time to get to know us and created a ceremony that felt completely personal and heartfelt. Her words beautifully captured our story, and she made sure our children were included in a way that felt natural and special. It was emotional, genuine, and full of love — we couldn’t have asked for more.

Tony, our photographer, was equally amazing. He captured every emotion, glance, and detail with such care and creativity. Not only did he take amazing portraits of the two of us, but he also captured beautiful candid moments of our children — moments we’ll treasure forever. He made us all feel at ease and somehow managed to document the day without ever feeling intrusive. The photos exceeded all our expectations — we’re absolutely over the moon with them.

Liz and Tony helped turn our small family wedding into something truly extraordinary. We’re so grateful for their kindness, professionalism, and talent, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly. They exceeded all expectation. The ceremony, the photos, the castle, the flowers, the guitarist.. it was all perfect.

With all our thanks,
Charlie and Beth, married Benalmadena, Spain. June 2025

Liz where do we start. We couldn't have planned and organised our special day in your recommended Beach venue if it wasn't for all your help, emails, recommendations etc. You made it all very simple for us with the language barrier.

The ceremony was fantastic: it was all about us, it was so personal and relevant everyone loved it. Our guests have said it’s the best wedding they have been to.

Tony did so many lovely natural photos capturing our day perfectly in the sunshine!

Thanks again for everything.

We have already set our 10 year vow renewal same place same date lol.

Thank you so much to Liz who guided a very lazy and laid back couple to a bespoke ceremony that was very true to who they were!

She made all guests feel comfortable and the ceremony was heartfelt without being cheesy - just what we wanted.

Thank you for everything on the day of the wedding and the lead up. Everyone complimented the ceremony and you made it so easy and not too formal. Thank you for being part of our ceremony and helping to shape the whole day.

Fiona & Casey

Since already having formally got married before our Wedding in Spain (legal paperwork), we didn't know what to expect from our Spanish Ceremony. However, all we can say is that Liz exceeded all expectations!

She comforted, made us laugh and made the ceremony even more special than we could have imagined. We had numerous happy tears and compliments on how perfect the ceremony was.

Liz was a great addition to our Wedding and we would definitely recommend her to anyone who was looking to get married in Spain.

Dear Liz,
We wanted to extend our deepest thanks for the beautiful ceremony you conducted at our wedding at your beach venue. Your words were heartfelt and meaningful, setting the perfect tone for such a special day in our lives. The care, warmth, and personal touch you brought to the ceremony made it truly unforgettable—not just for us, but for all of our guests.

Many have since commented on how moving and genuine the ceremony was, and we couldn’t agree more. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us and for helping to craft a ceremony that so perfectly reflected our relationship and values. It meant the world to us to have someone so thoughtful and professional guiding us through such an important moment.

Once again - Many thanks

Dear Liz
Thank you so much for all of your help, advice and support for our wedding in Malaga recently. Your ideas, suggestions and kindness gave me invaluable insight as to what we needed, without which, would have been very disorganised!

You helped me focus on the planning, offering fantastic ideas regarding the timeline, vows, readings plus much much more! You also kindly responded quickly to my questions, reassuring me that everything would go to plan!

In short, we are delighted that we chose Ceremonies in Spain to conduct our ceremony! Neil & I can’t thank you enough for all you did. Thank you so much for everything, you are AMAZING! I attach a few pics of the day, which everyone said was like a fairytale. A Perfect Day!

Thank you for everything – you really are THE BEST! 💕💕
Much love

My now husband and I had the pleasure of having Liz Wilkinson officiate our wedding in Spain in front of our favourite family and friends. Liz is very knowledgeable of the region, has years of experience in the wedding industry, and her attention to detail convinced us that she would be perfect to help set the tone for our intimate ceremony.

She got to know us as a couple and told our story so beautifully. Liz also helped us write our personal vows and it was hard not to get emotional.

We are so grateful to have had Liz welcome us for the first time as husband and wife.
