What do you get when you mix a very happy
couple, a gorgeous Andalusian Hacienda in Seville, talented
wedding planners, and fabulous flamenco details? Victoria and Charles´s magical wedding day! The newlyweds are from London, but planned a relaxed and intimate event with their
nearest and dearest in one of their favorite cities in Spain, Seville. They treated their guests to a wonderful weekend of Spanish culture.
Victoria and Charles's wedding planner (and Junebug member!), Laura Charles of Reviva Weddings, was a blessing when the venue that the couple had originally booked backed out, just three months before their wedding date. Carla helped them find El Esparragal, and the wedding was saved! Beyond the usual wedding festivities, they also planned a beautiful
dancing horse and flamenco show, and a pre-wedding cocktail party on a rooftop overlooking Seville. The gorgeous images from Limelight photography tell the whole story!
The Goals: Victoria and Charles shared a deep affection for Spain and imagined their
wedding day as intimate, romantic, and magical whilst sharing their love of everything
Spanish from the food to the culture; with their closest family and friends surrounding
them. The beautiful Andalusian venue El Esparragal nestled in the countryside to the
North of Seville, was full of romance and charm, and an elaborate wedding weekend
for their 150 guests proved to be the perfect way for everyone to slow down and enjoy
each other's company whilst enjoying the Mediterranean sunshine
The Design: For Laura and the talented design team from Reviva Weddings, Spanish
culture was the name of the game! This meant passionate red florals, flamenco
styling, fans, Spain´s famous sherries, and little black bulls! Reviva designed black bulls for the placecards, and each guest was
treated to a mini bottle of Fino Quinto Spanish Sherry. The Order of Service was printed
onto ivory lace-edged fans and red and black polka dot fans, which guests used to keep cool during the ceremony. The guest messages
were written onto a poster in the style of a bull fighting feria poster, and the tables were
decorated with a romantic mix of candles and red roses.
The Look: Victoria´s bridal look was all about classic elegance and more romance. She
wore a beautiful lace Jenny Packham
dress and her gorgeous long hair was swept up in an
elegant style which complemented her look perfectly. The bridesmaids
wore beautiful long red dresses, and all of the ladies carried
oh-so-Spanish red roses.
The Moments: The day was filled with so many romantic moments and love! The
couple shared a wonderful olive oil ceremony in the gardens of El Esparragal. The guests loved having cocktails and canapés while being entertained with a moving, romantic dancing
Andalusian horse show. The wonderful Mediterranean evening also included a 4-course gourmet meal, photo booth by the pool, and a lounge area created from haystacks, ivory throws, Moroccan tables and cushions. It was a great place to relax during a break from some serious dancing!
