The Wedding

The wedding ceremony took place in a magnificant church in the old part of town on Friday evening. Contrary to British weddings, all guests and the groom were awaiting the arrival of the bride outside the church. She arrived with her father, looking absolutely stunning in a champagne coloured dress with a long train and veil. Pedro escorted his wife-to-be up the aisle accompanied by his mother and her father.

After the ceremony, we made our way to a restaurant in the outskirts of Valladolid overlooking the mountains for drinks and canapees in the gardens followed by a truly impressive meal of lobster, white fish in garlic sauce, apple sorbet and lamb, chocolate cake, icecream and champagne. And then we danced into the early hours of Saturday. It was a magical day.
