About Convent de Blanes
El Convent de Blanes is a historic seafront venue on the Costa Brava, offering one of the most dramatic panoramic views in the region. With capacity for 65 to 220 seated guests and both indoor and outdoor spaces, it combines architectural heritage with full-event functionality.
Located just 35 minutes from Girona Airport and about an hour from Barcelona, it is one of the most accessible large-capacity venues on the Costa Brava. Unlike ceremony-only locations, El Convent supports the entire wedding day — from ceremony and dinner to late-night dancing indoors.
Convent de Blanes is a full-service seafront wedding venue in Costa Brava for 65–220 guests. It is ideal for destination weddings that require ceremony, dinner, Plan B, and indoor dancing until late at night in one location.
Indoor and Outdoor Flexibility for Up to 200 Guests
The convent's spaces include vaulted stone interiors with historic character and open terraces with unobstructed sea views. This combination — rare at this guest capacity on the Costa Brava — makes it suitable for ceremonies, cocktail receptions, and seated dinners within a single venue.
Why Convent de Blanes works for larger destination weddings
Convent de Blanes is one of the strongest Costa Brava venues for international couples planning a full wedding day with sea views, guest capacity, Plan B, and late-night indoor dancing. Unlike ceremony-only garden venues, it can support the full flow of the celebration: ceremony, cocktail hour, banquet, speeches, dancing, and guest transfers.
For couples inviting guests from the USA, UK, Canada, Europe, and Asia, this venue is especially practical because it combines visual impact with strong logistics. Casamiga Weddings plans the complete experience here — from venue coordination and catering timing to guest movement, styling, supplier access, and wedding-day management.

How Casamiga Plans Your Wedding at El Convent de Blanes
El Convent de Blanes combines a historic building with versatile event infrastructure — and with capacity for up to 200 guests, it requires careful logistical planning to use its spaces well. We know this venue's indoor and outdoor configurations and bring that knowledge to every wedding we organise here.
Step 1 — Full Venue Configuration Planning
With multiple indoor and outdoor spaces — vaulted interiors, sea-view terraces, and garden areas — the Convent requires a clear spatial plan from the start. We map the ceremony, cocktail, dinner, and dancing across the venue's zones according to your guest count, style, and timeline, ensuring every transition is smooth and every space is used at its best.
Step 2 — Vendor Coordination for a Larger Wedding
For celebrations approaching 200 guests, vendor coordination becomes critical — catering logistics, furniture and décor installation, AV and lighting setup, and multi-team management all need precise scheduling. We manage every external team on your behalf, from setup to breakdown, with a dedicated on-site coordinator throughout the day.
Step 3 — Guest Logistics from Barcelona & Girona Airport
El Convent's location in Blanes — 68 km from Barcelona and 35 minutes from Girona Airport — makes it easily accessible for international guests. We coordinate group transfers from both airports and from hotels across the Costa Brava and Maresme, ensuring no guest is left without a clear, comfortable route to and from your celebration.
