A SPECTACULAR WEDDING A FEW METERS FROM THE SEA

/

 

Viktor@Rolf para Farah Novias

 

We met on July 4, 2010 on the flight from Barcelona  to San Francisco, We were seated next to each other and didn’t stop talking during the whole flight. From that day my whole life changed and I realised how love at first sight really feels like.

On July 3, 2021, we got engaged in one of the most beautiful places in the world surrounded by family and friends  and finally tied the knot on July 2, 2022 during the most memorable ceremony.

The Venue 

It was an easy decision to hold the ceremony at our own restaurant which I opened with my father, named after my beloved grandmother CATALINA in GAVA Mar. It was a wonderful wedding and an unbelievable day. Natalia from Studio Floral helped us with the most beautiful color palette for the flowers. they really were stunning and complimented the decor perfectly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

My wedding dresses, the best kept secret

Like many brides-to-be at the beginning I was not sure about the style of the wedding dress, however I had a clear idea of the styles that I didn’t like. After looking at many different bridal designers and visiting several ateliers, I felt most comfortable at Farah Novias. 

I knew that my wedding gown has to be perfect . I wasn’t looking for a minimalistic dress and always  believed that a bride should wear something special.  I was looking for a dress that I was going to wear only at my wedding but that I would remember forever.

 

 

 

Farah perfectly understood my needs and requested a specific Viktor&Rolf wedding gown that was traveling on trunk shows. I never felt more special than the moment I first stepped into my wedding dress. It was an iconic moment as I felt instantly that I have found my dream dress. It was clear to me that a pair of Manolo Blahnik would be the perfect match to complement my  beautiful wedding dress. I always dreamed of wearing the iconic blue Manolo for my wedding, a pair of shoes that unlike my wedding dress I can wear after the wedding. 

 

 

I loved the idea of a second dress and after the ceremony I changed into a gorgeous short Viktor & Rolf wedding dress and a pair of white Yves Saint Laurent sneakers. I wanted to be able to dance all night without worrying of getting my dress dirty or dragging my long train around .

 

 

It was a wonderful wedding and an unbelievable day. Thanks to Farah and her entire team to make me feel so special in my  stunning wedding dress. It made me so happy knowing that my husband loved how I looked in my dress. I had everyone commenting on how wonderful and breathtaking my wedding dress was.

An Unforgettable Wedding

/

I always dreamed on getting married to the love of my life wearing the perfect  wedding dress in a beautiful  place. On July 31st my dream was fulfilled by marring the man of my life with the dress I imagined in an amazing setting in Girona and today I can say that it was the most incredible day of my life. 

Like many other couples, it wasn’t easy to get there in a global pandemic. The preparation of the wedding was hard and full of changes and uncertainties, but finally after three date changes we were able to celebrate the love we had shared for years in an unforgettable ceremony. We got engaged in 2018 on the day of our anniversary and from that moment we knew that we wanted to have an intimate wedding with our family and closest friends and that we didn’t want to plan a complicated wedding with too much preparations. If there is one thing to learn from this pandemic, it’s that we need very little to be truly happy.

The Ceremony 

The wedding ceremony took place at Mas Marroch, a 15th-century gothic farmhouse located on the outskirts of Girona, owned by the Roca brothers. We fell in love with this beautiful rustic farmhouse from the first moment that we laid eyes upon it. The wedding celebration continued in the magnificent and elegant garden that surrounds the farmhouse and the floral decorations and live music gave a very romantic touch to the wedding.

 

 

 

 

 

The Wedding Venue

The wedding Reception was held in the Agora, a beautiful natural pavilion that all the guests fell in love with. For the dance, which was held where the banquet took place, I changed into a beautiful and comfortable dress that allowed me to move freely and enjoy the moment.

 

 

 

 

The Wedding Dress

As for my dresses… I discovered Farah’s bridal boutique through Instagram. After months of searching and thinking about how to describe the wedding dress of my dreams, I arrived accompanied by a large group of the most important women in my life. 

 

 

 

 

At the appointment, I remember Farah asking me about the wedding ceremony and the style of the wedding gown I was looking for, and to my surprise it only took a few minutes to find the dress of my dreams. All of her wedding dresses are perfect, but she captured the idea I wanted very quickly and the first wedding dress she took out was the gown that most defined my personalty. It was one of the most exciting moments in my preparations. We were all excited to see that this was finally the dress I was going to tie the knot in. Farah not only advised me on my two wedding dresses, but on all the bridal accessories I wore and she truly made me feel very special at all times.
