Palacio de la Concepción is a grand house in Gijón that is rented for weddings. It sits in Somió, a residential and much sought-after part of the city, and was built at the start of the 20th century. From outside its French-inspired façade stands out, surrounded by a wide Victorian garden near the sea. The name comes from its chapel, dedicated to the Virgen de la Concepción, so the ceremony and the celebration can both take place on the same site, with no need to move guests from a church to a restaurant.
Guests and prices
The palace works with groups of 120 to 350 guests, ideal for big weddings full of atmosphere. Menus cost between €148 and €196 per guest, and the open bar is included in the menu rather than booked separately, which makes the sums much easier.

The spaces of the estate
The estate brings together banquet halls, a terrace, gardens, a marquee, a dance floor and parking for guests. It also has a kitchen designed so the caterers can prepare the food on site, so the dishes reach the tables hot. Having covered halls and a marquee as well as the garden is a great advantage in Asturias, where the weather changes easily.
Services it offers
The palace offers the banquet, the ceremony, music and decoration, so a good part of the organisation can be left in the hands of the house itself, with no need to find each supplier separately.

How to take the next step
Take your approximate number of guests and multiply by the €148 and €196 of the menu, and you have a realistic budget range. After that, the best thing is to contact the palace, ask for the full menus and the free dates, and visit it, ideally on a rainy day, to see how well the covered spaces work.
