Destination Wedding in Tenerife

Tenerife is a well-connected island. For your destination wedding in Tenerife, you can fly into its two international airport facilities: Tenerife North Airport and Tenerife South Airport. This is especially convenient if you are traveling from European and North American cities. 

From the airport, you can travel to your wedding hotel and venue by taxi or bus. If you are planning to travel across cities in the Canary Islands from Tenerife, you can use ferries for sea travel.

Car rentals and taxis are recommended if you are going by road. There are also public transport options like buses.

Don't worry about wedding transportation, our team of planners has got your back in Tenerife!

The Canary Islands experience a mild and stable climate throughout the year which makes Tenerife, a suitable wedding destination all year around. The best months to host destination weddings in Tenerife are May, June, and September.

Since the days are warm, with pleasant temperatures and plenty of sunlight, the weather is bright and happy. This time is also appropriate to host an outdoor celebration, like an Indian or beach wedding in Tenerife. Beach weddings on the coast, like Costa Adeje, are also popular across the year, except for winters in January.

If you are planning to get married in Tenerife, you must follow certain legal procedures and have a look at eligibility criteria.

You can marry in Tenerife even if you are a foreigner. The rules and procedures also remain standardized for all locations in the Canary Islands and Costa Adeje. Therefore, if you do abide by the rules you can also get married in Costa Adeje.

However, there are only two types of wedding options that are recognized legally, those would be civil and catholic ceremonies.

Civil Weddings:

Civil wedding has residential restrictions, where at least one partner is required to be a legal resident of the country. Since that is quite difficult for couples hosting destination weddings, they choose to have symbolic services.

In case you are eligible to get married in a civil ceremony in Spain, here are the requirements that you must abide by.

• Passports
• Divorce papers/death certificates, if any of the partners had been previously married.
• Application for permission to marry in Spain
• Both partners must be at least 18.
• The ceremony should be in the presence of 2 witnesses

Keep in mind that, the civil registry will take about 6 months to approve the application and only then a civil ceremony conducted by the judge and clerk can be hosted. The ceremony itself is brief, lasting only for about 20 minutes.

If you are not up for a civil wedding, you can go for a Religious Catholic Wedding.

Catholic Wedding

For a catholic wedding, you must provide proof of baptism. The documents must be approved by a local catholic church.

Symbolic Wedding

Symbolic weddings are the most popular amongst couples hosting destination weddings in Tenerife. While these are not legally recognized, they give you a chance to have your dream wedding without going through all the hustle for the approval of the registry. You can then have your marriage registered legally in your home country.

Is same-sex wedding legal in Tenerife?

If you are a gay or lesbian couple, hoping to get married in Tenerife, good news for you! Spain has legalized same-sex weddings for a long time now. The above-discussed rules and requirements also apply to gay and lesbian weddings.
