I'm trying to translate "It must have been a very emotional day".

How's this?

Debe haber sido un día muy emocionado

emocionado is a bit of a false friend - it means excited, not emotional

you can say: debe haber sido un día muy emotivo

Yes, it is correct.

Thanks!

The main bit I was unsure about was the "It must have been" - I take it that "debe haber sido" is correct then?
