Gran Canaria
Symbolic wedding and ceremonies in Gran Canaria – your love in the light of the island
Gran Canaria is not just a holiday island – for many couples it becomes a place of the heart. For me it has become my second home. Here I accompany you as a wedding celebrant for symbolic weddings, elopements, vow renewals, welcome ceremonies and other personal rituals. Together we find the place where your story feels free, light and authentic.
Because I live on Gran Canaria and know the island’s best hidden spots, I find places for you that very few people ever see – small, sheltered favourite places where your love can shine and a very special atmosphere is created for your ceremony.

Why a symbolic wedding in Gran Canaria is so special
On Gran Canaria, sun, sea and mountains come together. You can say “yes” barefoot in the sand, give each other your promise in the shade of the pines or high up in the mountains. Your ceremony does not follow rigid rules – it follows you, your love and the rhythm of this island.
Magical places for your ceremony
- Dunes in the south of the island – especially romantic at sunset
- Hidden coves and secluded beaches
- Rocky cliffs with breathtaking views (for example with a view of Mount Teide on Tenerife)
- Fincas with palm trees, gardens and sea views
- Mountain plateaus and viewpoints in the centre of the island
Together we look at which place suits you – romantic, wild, close to nature and, above all, where it feels truly right for you.
More than a wedding – ceremonies with meaning
In addition to symbolic weddings, I also design elopements, vow renewals, welcome ceremonies for children and other rites of passage on Gran Canaria. My aim is always to create a loving space in which you feel seen, held and at home.
Your wedding celebrant in Gran Canaria
I’m Angelika – a freelance speaker and ceremony leader on Gran Canaria. I listen to you, ask questions that may go a little deeper and shape from them a personal speech. No off-the-shelf text, but a ceremony in which you recognise yourselves – warm, heartfelt and with words that touch your heart and reflect your unique story.

Yes, that is actually one of my biggest advantages for you. I live on Gran Canaria and know many sheltered favourite spots, beaches, fincas, gardens and viewpoints. Together we choose the place that suits you, your group size and the time of year.
In which languages can you hold the ceremony?
I can lead your ceremony in German, English, Spanish or as a multilingual ceremony.
