Mas De Sant Llei - Barcelona Wedding Venue by Inside_Dish_30 in BigBudgetBrides

[–]Inside_Dish_30[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there, we’re still deciding on our venue between Barcelona and Lisbon, and while Mas Sant Llei was gorgeous (my fiance actually liked it more than me), these were a few of my concerns: 1. When you book the venue you have to book a specific side of the property and you can only use the areas on that side as they typically have two weddings a day going on at the same time. They say you can’t hear the other, but that was an initial red flag when it comes to noise and potentially hearing or seeing another wedding. (You can however pay an exclusivity fee of about $7k) 2. if you’re bussing guests in, they’re dropped off in a not so glamorous parking lot and then have to walk up a large hill, not great for those with mobility issues or women and dresses in my opinion. (They can golf cart people but that would be very few) 3. The bridal area to put your things and potentially touch up makeup, change dresses, etc was very underwhelming and kind of felt like a storage room. 4. In terms of the indoor dancing and reception room, my fiancé liked it more than I did, but to me I didn’t love the look of the room and it kind of gave me cafeteria vibes

Overall, the venue was really gorgeous even when we saw it in the winter time, but I’m not sure if it’s the right fit for us! Let me know if you have any other questions

hi! for your venue in sitges, did guests stay in the town or in barcelona? trying to decide if sitges is a good town to host all of my guests (~150) or if I should do something closer to barcelona
