Using a library as Laravel-Date you will just need to set the language of the app in the Laravel app config file and use its functions to format the date as you want.

Set the language in /app/config/app.php

'locale' => 'es',

I've found this library pretty useful and clean. To use it, you can write something like the example in the library readme file. I leave the results in spanish.
...
echo Date::now()->format('l j F Y H:i:s'); // domingo 28 abril 2013 21:58:16
echo Date::parse('-1 day')->diffForHumans(); // 1 día atrás
...

to get same result.
