Good morning. I'm an Oncology nurse from NY who hasn't done ONE THING for my proposed wedding in October 2026 and have desperately reached out to various venues with no reply. I'm in desperate need of boots on the ground. Any assistance would be appreciated. My fiance was born in Galicia and my ancestry is also Spainaird so I'd like to get back to our roots.

Google "wedding planner galicia" and several suggestions come up.
In the meantime, an acquaintance lives in Galicia and I'll ask him.

I googled the venues - am hoping for a great referral by word of mouth but I'll do that as well. Thank you so much!!!

I recently stayed with my family at Casa das Capelas in Vilamarin ( near Ourense). It’s a nicely restored 16th century manor and apparently they specialize in hosting weddings. Might be worth looking into if the location works for you.

My contact doesn't know anyone specifically, but suggested googling weddings/pazos. A pazo is a typically Galician large country house, lost of which seem to do weddings. Santiago de Compostela seems to feature large.

Look into the EUROSTARS GRAND HOTEL LA TOJA, close to O'GROVE..we've been going every year now and it's glorious..on the water...
I was inadvertently invited to a wedding there in mid-June.
The shell-encrusted chapel is glorious and from there, guests walk along a short path to the hotel:
I have a lot of photos but not sure how to link them here..I cannot imagine a more lovelier site for a wedding:
