If you'd like to have a wedding abroad, but would also like to get married
easily, then Gibraltar is a good choice. It's simple to marry here, the
paperwork is in English so no translations required, and it's actually
quicker to marry here than it is in the UK!
Located at the southern
tip of Spain, overlooking Morocco, Gibraltar is the UK in the sun. With
year-round sunshine and warm weather, its famous Rock dominates the
territory (you can actually get married on top of the Rock, which gives you
a spectacular view over the sea to Africa), with plenty of the equally
famous Barbary Apes roaming around at the top.
Popular locations in Gibraltar to get married include the Botanical Gardens and, for a simple ceremony, the Registry Office. Famous couples who got married here include Sean Connery (twice), Roger Moore, and John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

2. Top of the Rock
With a spectacular view over the Straight of Gibraltar to Africa,
getting married in the Mons Calpe Suite on the top of the rock is a
classic option for a wedding in Gibraltar.
This is a truly
elegant venue for your wedding and reception, and you can even take a
cable car ride to get there - what a way to arrive at your wedding!
The venue has space for 60 guests, so it's ideal for intimate
weddings, and as the weather is generally good, you'll have an amazing
backdrop for your wedding photos

3. St Michael's Cave
This truly unique wedding location is high above sea level in one of the
largest caves in the local nature reserve. It's ideal if you'd like to
get married somewhere completely different and wow your guests with a
ceremony underground!
The Cathedral Cave, where you will marry,
is also an auditorium and has held plenty of concerts and light shows
over the years.
After getting married in the cave you can
also hold your wedding reception there and party until the small hours
surrounded by incredible rock formations lit by multi-coloured lights.

4. Beach Hotel Wedding
A beach wedding is a dream for many couples wishing to get married
abroad, but not every country can offer such a ceremony. Luckily
Gibraltar can at the Caleta Hotel, which has direct access to the beach.
You can marry on one of the terraces overlooking the beach and
sparkling sea, and then have your reception there too. It's the perfect
beach wedding as there's no need to get sand between your toes (unless
you want to!).

5. Registry Office
The Registry Office is ideal for a simple wedding ceremony, and many
celebrities have married here in the past, so you'll be following in
famous footsteps.
Located in the Old Town, the Registry Office
can only hold 20 people so it's ideal for small ceremonies.
It's also
only open Monday to Friday, so if you're flying in for a weekend wedding
you'll have to make it a long weekend or choose a different venue!
