Stunning September Weddings in Marbella

I have just realised we are almost at the end of September and I have not created one blog post since August so hugest apologies to all our followers.

Working in the Destination Wedding Industry here in Marbella, we do have incredibly busy months, predominently May, June, July and September. Needless to say September has whizzed past leaving little time for me to indulge in my blogging.

We have been frantically waving our famous magic wands over Andalucia and have some fabulous weddings to share with you over the next few months plus some very exciting news, so do keep an eye out for our announcements coming shortly.

We have been thrilled to again receive many testimonials from our brides and would like to share this one with you received tonight for a wedding we planned, executed and designed at the beginning of September.

I think the importance of this email is that our lovely bride works for one of the largest event companies in London so we were up against a real test of our planning and decoration skills with this fabulous wedding set in a stunning monastery in the hills behind Sotogrande.

Hi Laura and Carla
We really wanted to thank you guys for you amazing hard work and commitment to make the wedding so beautiful and such a success. We absolutely loved every minute of it and are both still on a total high from it all and buzzing.

Every detail was perfect and when we arrived at the both the church and the venue we were really blown away by how fantastic they looked and all those months of work and deliberating had delivered something beyond what we expected.

All our guests remarked on how stunning the venue looked and how fab everything was from the food/drink to the disco and laser lights were, people really felt this was something unique and special and the wedding of all weddings!

Sad that it is all over but we have such fantastic memories and cannot wait to see the photos and videos which we will of course pass onto you.

Thank you for making it such a memorable day.

Very Best Danielle and Ed

Our thanks to Danielle and Ed for choosing us and allowing us to plan, design, decorate and manage this fabulous wedding and we thoroughly enjoyed working with them and their lovely family and wish them a future filled with fun and happy times.

Gorgeous Ice Blue and Pale Coral Wedding at Finca de la Concepcion, Marbella

We were delighted when Chris contacted us to help him design and style his wedding to Faye.



Chris is a designer so was very involved in creating just how he saw his wedding day and to make it even more special Chris and Faye were childhood sweethearts, so we were hopelessly in love with this couple as well and very keen to make sure everything of course, as always, was perfectly styled for them to enjoy their day.



Using a vintage ice blue and pale coral combination, we worked with Lynn as well, Faye´s mother, to create all the beautiful, thoughtful details for the wedding day.



Guests place names were set in tiny silver frames doubling up as wedding favours and pale coral gift bags were on every seat to put trinkets, cakes and gifts in, including the very stylish monogrammed napkins and our beautifully decorated fans :)



Loraine designed and created these stunning bridal flowers to match the theme with pearl details and our gorgeous table centrepieces of silver candelabras decorated with fabulous flowers and pearl details completed the look of the day.



We were thrilled at the outcome of this wedding and many of the other suppliers at the wedding still keep telling me it was their favourite of the year as it was so dreamily romantic.



Here is our testimonial from Chris and Faye and also Lynne, Faye´s mother, who we worked very closely with as well leading up to this gorgeous wedding.



Dear Laura
Chris and I wanted to send you and your great team a big thank you before we go off on our honeymoon.



Our wedding day was amazing in every way and every small detail was exactly how both
Chris and I had envisioned (which is amazing considering we are both perfectionists)



This could not have been possible without you, Loraine and Anoulka, who ensured everything was so perfect and beautiful.



It has been such a pleasure to have been able to have worked with you to create our dream day, when I entered the venue it took my breath away, I always dreamed of a beautiful, vintage, romantic wedding day and that is what we got and more.



Right from the beginning Chris and I said we wanted to tell a story and take our guests on a journey, since returning we have had so many messages with comments about how they felt they were truly part of something and I truly feel you helped us creating this beautiful journey.



Thank you and hope we see you next time we are out in Spain-

Dear Laura
I just wanted to thank you for making Chris and Faye´s day so amazing! The sheer beauty of everything you created took my breath away, especially the beautiful flowers.



So many people have commented on the decor, saying they have never seen such uniqueness. All the hard work paid off and it has been a real pleasure dealing with you, exchanging emails, ideas and finishing touches.



A big thank you to Anoulka as I know she contributed to a big part of the creativity!



Thank you so much for all that you did to make the day so memorable, it was all that Chris and Faye wanted and more.
Kindest Wishes

We would like to thank Jeremy Standley for allowing us to share these beautiful photos of a very romantic day with you.

A Stunning Wedding on Lake Vinuela, Malaga



I do love our Jewish Weddings, there are so many different parts to the ceremony and they are all very special. I personally find that they are very spiritual and I love being involved and watching the magic unfold as different rituals are performed.


I might be sticking my neck out here but none of the words actually sound like they are spelt which does always make me giggle, chuppah the ceremony canopy is pronounced hooper, but after a few years of designing Jewish weddings and watching these lovely ceremonies we are thrilled when asked to help create, design and plan Jewish weddings.


Candy and Jamie were no exception and we were delighted to decorate this fabulous wedding in the stunning setting of the Hotel Vinuela set on the lakes just behind Malaga. at the beginning of June. With an already built in chuppah of a beautiful gazebo completely covered in foliage, the setting was just perfect with the stunning bright turquoise lake as a backdrop.


We created these gorgeous bridal flowers, decorated the chuppah and the reception with a stunning ivory, silver and incorporated a touch of black tie into the reception area, which lent itself to the style of the venue and the fact it was a black tie affair. Anoulka and I sat and watched this delightful marriage performed under the chuppah and it bought tears to our eyes as Candy and Jamie were just such a beautiful happy couple.


We do also have very fond memories of Candy´s grandmother with her numerous cavas and desperately trying to stay upright for the ceremony :) It was a lovely moment.


Here is our email from Candy and Jamie after their wedding which we were delighted to receive and our thanks to Alex Olsen for allowing us to publish these beautiful photographs of a very special day.


Dear Laura


Jamie and I are now back home and floating down to reality after an amazing wedding day, it was incredible, the best day ever and like a dream.


Thank you for being a part of it and making it extra special for us. The flowers and bouquets in particular were absolutely stunning, we loved them and the table decorations were gorgeous, not to mention the chinese sky lanterns that were a complete surprise to me and really, really magical.


Also thank you for your help in the preparations, I believe at one point you were zipping up my mother´s dress! Thank you so much you were great!! Thank you so much Laura

A Beautiful Wedding and Candy at Cortijo Bravo Hotel, Velez Malaga




As our weddings started to get well and truly underway in May, we were very excited about decorating Michelle and Andrew´s wedding at the Cortijo Bravo Hotel in Velez Malaga. It is a beautiful venue and a fairly new one for us to decorate which is always exciting as we like a challenge so we did head off earlier this year to take a good look around this hotel to see what we would create for our weddings booked here this year.



Michelle and Andrew´s wedding started with a beautiful church ceremony in Nerja and then back to the Cortijo for a wonderful night of festivities and entertainments organised by Moira at Perfect Spanish Weddings.


The venue do supply some flowers so we woofed (I love this word!) everything up by supplying glassware which we filled with water, pink crystals and floating candles and then added in the pink roses we had ordered from the hotel, we also bought our mirrors and finished the centrepieces off with tealights and scattered the tables with crystals.


Peonies are delightful at this time of year and perfect for huge fluffy balls of loveliness, we created Michelle´s bouquet with ivory peonies and the bridesmaids in a fabulous combination of pink. They were delightful and huge! We were not allowed to decorate the pew ends at the church with our bows, which was disappointing but soon made use of them back at the venue by using them on the orange trees on the terrace so all was not lost!


Our highlight was the Candy Bar, there was a big clap all round from us and the staff, at the hotel, when we switched the fairy lights on, I think they were wondering what we were up to and it looked fabulous. Anoulka had done a fabulous job creating all the candy bar signs and Jeremy and Rob did get a look in later in the night when no one was watching!



We love the photos of the terrace that we decorated with lanterns, fairy lights and candles. It was a gorgeous wedding and lots of fun was had with the photo booth supplied by Jeremy, a gorgeous wedding cake from Fi, and dancing all night with fantastic music, lights and sounds from Rob the DJ. The A team were out in full force and here is our lovely email from Michelle and Andrew that was posted on our Facebook page




Hi Laura, sorry it has taken so long but I just had to thank you for helping me create my dream wedding. Your attention to detail goes way beyond what I had even imagined and it was only when I looked back at Jeremy´s photos I could see the extent that you and your team went to. Thoroughly breathtaking. The flowers were amazing and just what we discussed and of course all my guests are still talking about the sweet table (can I add they lasted the whole week we were here in Spain) such a treat. You were like my fairy godmother that waved her magic wand and made all my dreams come true, once again thank you so much, Michelle and Andrew xxx




Our thanks to Jeremy again for sending me these photos so we can share these fabulous photos of our work with you
