Profile
Denise Whelan | Destination Wedding Celebrant Spain. Costa Blanca
I am an award-winning Destination Wedding Celebrant in Spain, based in Moraira on the Costa Blanca and working with UK and Irish couples planning weddings abroad.
Specialising in celebrant-led and symbolic wedding ceremonies in Spain, I create bespoke ceremonies that are personal, well-paced and written entirely around you as a couple. No templates. No generic scripts. Just meaningful words delivered with warmth and professionalism.
As an experienced wedding celebrant in Costa Blanca, I fully understand the practical realities of destination weddings, particularly for couples planning their wedding in Spain from the UK. My approach is calm organised, this gives couples confidence from our first conversation through to the wedding day.
I also have extensive knowledge of Catholic Church weddings in Spain and support couples with clear guidance on parish documentation, timelines and administrative requirements. This experience is often invaluable for couples navigating a Catholic wedding abroad.
Alongside my celebrant work, I offer limited wedding planning support to ensure ceremony flow, timing and logistics are aligned on the day.
I am based in Moraira, and work across the Costa Blanca including Jávea, Calpe, Denia and Benissa.
If you are looking for a trusted destination wedding celebrant Spain, with strong local knowledge and a structured, personal approach, I would be delighted to help.
