The hotel’s location alone is so jaw droppingly spectacular, that alone
would be enough to impress the most hardened wedding guest !! Couples can choose from a Church of England blessing , a non denominational blessing by a Humanist minister, Jewish wedding celebration or can marry in the pretty local Roman Catholic church in nearby white village, Villanueva de la Concepcion. Celebrations follow the service with a wedding reception dinner, on what must be the most amazing terrace ever, with the stunning El Torcal Park rock formations behind in the distance and vast rolling hills and valley all around – it’s a dinner no one will ever forget. Best of all , the hotel and its facilities are exclusively yours for your wedding weekend.

Just one weekend planning with the couple several months before their wedding and the rest is left in Karen’s capable and experienced hands . The many testimonals and amazing photographs on the hotel’s web site and on view in the hotel’s own wedding album on view at La Posada , bear witness to the fact that this is indeed no ordinary wedding venue.
