Here at Hour Weddings, we are well aware that there are a lot of fun Spanish traditions which are welcomed into local weddings. If you are considering getting married in Gibraltar or nearby in Spain, these are some things to think of to make sure your guests get a taste of local culture
Jamon Serrano - jamon is a Spanish delicacy, cured spanish ham, very salty and a must at a local wedding. A jamon cutter will hand slice the ham during the cocktail hour & is always a hit for guests. Jamon start cheap but can get quite expensive depending on the quality (you can get a really good leg for 400£) this is enough to serve your whole wedding party and is a nice quirk (we get all our jamons from Spain, no pigs in Gibraltar!)
Sangria or tinto verano - I know most have heard of sangria, but tinto de verano is our prefered version, it is essentially, red wine and lemonade - cold refreshing (honestly life changing) Tinto de verano is a cheaper easier option and your guests will be addicted!
Spanish guitar or flamenco- if you are looking for entertainment for your wedding in Gibraltar or Spain, a traditional guitar or spanish dancer can be really great. Sevilla nearby is home to the flamenco so we have very talented performers which can really make your day super special
