first get a marrige licesne where you live and any papers that may need to be signed when you are getting married in spain. It will help speeding up your marrage acceptance in the US.
In spain you will need to find someone to marry you. im not sure if you husband knows a local priest or has family there that goes to church etc. Usually churches there require you be a member of the church or give a donation.
Good luck..

There was no Isabella of Spain. Isabella is an Italian Name. The queen to whom you refer was SPANISH. And, because when Isabel (note correct spelling of her name) married Fernando, their two kingdoms essentially added up to the land which is STILL Spain. Nothing was so special about it, except that 500 years later, the country still has approximately the same borders as it gained from their marriage and during their lifetime. Granada and the remainder of Andalucía were added in 1492. (Navarra was added a little after their marriage, but otherwise, the borders have changed very little). In fact, Isabel was SUPPOSED to marry King José of PORTUGAL, but eloped with her much younger and more handsome cousin Fernando (which, btw, you spelled correctly if you were going for the English...but if you want to call HER by her English name, that would be Elizabeth). Actually, the property that Fernando brought to their union included Naples, and a couple of other Italian properties, and the Low Countries (More or less Benelux), and through their marriage, their grandson became the emperor of almost all of Europe. And, through their policies and actions, Spain came to rule the entire NEW WORLD, as well. They lost much in short order, but for a while there, Spain was the most important country in the world!

Check as soon as you can with the USA immigration Dept. and with the nearest Spanish Consulate..compile the information and act acordically. And after you go to Spain the USA Enmbassy & the Ministry of Interior of Spain will help you for any new difficulties possible you will face there. But in the long run every thing will be all right.

If the groom is Spanish, he's well positioned to ask the question of the appropriate Spanish authorities.

go to your local embassy and ask about it, or have your to be find out in Spain's embassy.
Do either of yous plan on having dual-citizenship, or are you just getting married in Spain?
You might be able to contact your local immigration office.
Do you both have the obvious necessities-passports?
