Celebrant in Spain, taking your dreams from paper to reality, creating memories that last a lifetime

Marcia Bravo Celebrant

UK & Spain

Hi just arrived… you´ve found me,
I´m your celebrant in Spain, it´s great
to meet you…

I´m a Celebrant in Spain writing vibrant, bespoke bilingual, English and Spanish and English wedding, elopement and vow renewal ceremonies.  If someone had told me that in the future, I would learn to speak Spanish, I would probably have thought maybe!! Why not!! I´ve always considered Spanish a very romantic language and loved the vibrant culture…

 

However, if they´d said Marcia what´s more you´re going to become a celebrant in Spain writing and officiating bespoke destination wedding ceremonies in the UK and Spain; I don´t think, I would have believed them…But becoming a wedding officiant has really been one of the best things I´ve ever done…

 

Just like the dreams for your wedding, mine becoming a celebrant in Spain and the UK began from an idea on paper.  Subsequently it became a dream and in time my reality.  Specifically as a wedding celebrant writing and officiating personalised wedding ceremonies for couples like you, I get to create memories that last a lifetime too..

As a Celebrant in Spain what more could I ask for…

I´m Marcia Bravo Celebrant in Spain
Fondly known as “M” or “MB”

I´m originally from the UK, Leeds, West Yorkshire but now live in Málaga capital, Andalucía, Spain.

Don´t get me wrong I loved working 9-5 and within the UK charities where I worked for over 20 years but I knew I longed for something more; something was missing…That something was being able to use my creativity every day , being a celebrant in Spain lets me do that.

I especially love abstract painting and ceramics, because I get to create something unique that has been shaped by me and that can be seen by others. That´s what I really love about being a celebrant in Spain…being able to write and officiate unique and uplifting ceremonies for couples like you in the UK and Spain.

Having a celebrant led wedding has some clear advantages.  To me each ceremony is like creating a piece of art. I get to take your ideas from paper to reality whilst weaving your love story into an amazing, vibrant ceremony that creates memories that last a lifetime…

I have a question for you … Are you ready to take your wedding dreams from paper to reality?

Yes? Well, I can help you do that, as your celebrant in Spain and the UK, let´s start communicating

I would love to get to know more about you and your ideas for your special day.

My wife and I live in Florida and decided to elope in Malaga, Spain. When presearching for someone to officiate our ceremony, I came across M's page and I was immediately drawn by her picture which was very warm, geniune and inviting. I read on about her services and reviews from others and I knew it had to be her to officiate our wedding. I told my bride-to-be, "I think I found the perfect person for us" and she agreed. We only had two short months to plan the whole event and from the very first Zoom call, we were 100% sure, we chose well. M was very attentive and quickly understood our love story and how we wanted to portray our love. Her recommendations for a photographer and hair/makeup were spot on and she also recommended a Sand Ceremony which we'd not heard of but loved the concept so we selected that option. So glad we did as M incorporated each of us, including my son who could not make the ceremony because of passport issues. M also beautifully curated our ceremony script with personal elements of my bride and I's love story that still makes my heart flutter when I watch our ceremony video. She was very patient with last minute edits and it turned out better than we imagined. Everyone who was there or saw our video, were full of praise on our chosen celebrant. M has such a great spirit and undeniable energy that was so important in our decisions to have a part of our special day. As fate would have it, we ran into each other on the streets of Malaga a couple of days after the ceremony and invited her to her first American Thanksgiving we were hosting. Amazing time and great fellowship was had by all. Anyone planning a wedding or elopement in Spain would be truly elated with choosing M to officiate. Her attention to details (even down to your ceremony colors!) and personalization will make any couple so happy and grateful they chose M for their special day too. I wish she was in the United States too because I highly recommend her to all future brides-to-be.

M was incredibly lovely, accomodating and easy to work with. When you’re organising a wedding on the other side of the world you want to minimise headaches and stress, M communicated well, kept us on track and made sure the ceremony was perfect without needing any direction. M was the perfect celebrant for us and we would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in spain

My partner and I got married last month in Ronda, Spain. The setting was amazing with the beautiful sunshine and the stunning scenery. Marcia was our celebrant and she was outstanding. From the very beginning of our journey the attention to detail was second to none. She wrote a beautiful script for the service and gave advice on our vows. We were in contact regularly so we always felt it was important to her that our day would go perfectly. The service was just as we wanted it and we were really relaxed on the day. Our guests said it was one of the most personal weddings they had been to. Marcia had to deal with lots of Irish names, I sent her the phonetic pronunciations and she totally pulled it off. Our guests were well impressed. She was also very cool when our ringbearer dog stole the show by barking loudly during the vows, much to the amusement of our guests. The doggie obviously did not want me to marry the love of her life, Shane! We had the best day with lovely readings and music from family and friends, all orchestrated by Marcia and her gentle humour and an obvious enjoyment in what she was doing. We would not hesitate to recommend her. Carol and Shane, September 2023, Ronda

My husband and I reside in Australia and decided to elope in Sintra, Portugal. After an exhaustive search through various wedding agencies with exorbitant prices, I opted to independently find a Celebrant and photographer for our symbolic elopement ceremony. Marcia was the very first Celebrant I reached out to, and right from the beginning, I had complete confidence that she was the perfect fit for our love story. Marcia exudes a calming and warm demeanor, which even came through during our initial Zoom call. Throughout the planning process, Marcia provided tremendous comfort and peace of mind, going above and beyond to guide us every step of the way. On the big day, as we arrived at our wedding venue in the Pena Palace Gardens of Sintra, Portugal, we were welcomed by Marcia's brilliant smile and warmth. The script and ceremony she crafted were nothing short of perfection. We wholeheartedly recommend Marcia's services to anyone looking to make their special day truly unforgettable. With much love and gratitude, C & L

My wife and I eloped from Hawaii to Spain. Marcia, a photographer, and a hotel that agreed to let us get married on property were the only plans we made. Marcia took care of the rest. We had a wedding that exceeded our wildest dreams thanks to Marcia. There are no words for the gifts that she has. Marcia will exceed your expectations and is someone who is definitely doing her life's purpose. It was sacred, and we absolutely love you Marcia. Even the hotel staff were talking about how awesome she was before we even walked out to meet her:) There's no one else in the world that could have given us that wedding. We are deeply grateful and in awe of who you are and what you did for us. Mahalo Nui Loa Marcia!!! xoxo

Marcia did an amazing job as our wedding celebrant! The ceremony was personal, hit all the right notes and was exactly what we wanted. Marcia made a special effort to get to know us in the months leading up to the big day, which made a huge difference and filled us with confidence that our ceremony was in good hands (meaning one less thing to worry about!!). Highly recommend.
