Boda España

Boda España

So at last we have finished our last installment of the world wide wedding tour! yesterday we got some of the photos from the photographer. It was a lot of fun to celebrate with everyone here in Spain, and we even had some unexpected surprises (i.e. the cake!). This cake...Eda asked us months ago if we would like this special cake presentation that they have here, and we had definitively said that it was not really our style and we prefer not to have it. There was some sort of mix up on the restaurants part and out came the cake in a twirling, artificial flowered clam shell sort of thing...with music blasting and when it opened.....there was smoke! It was the most hideous and fantastic sight I've even seen with a wedding cake. See the video below:


Done to the tune of Whitney Houston's "I have nothing" hahaha....of course not a song we picked!

Eda (Felipe's mom) went to tell the coordinator that we didn't want this and he apologized genuinely and said that at that point there was nothing he could do to stop it....and so it continued!

Here are a few of the photographers photos from the reception as well:

It rained that day, and the rocks were super slippery...kind of scary in my high heels!

And finally dancing....


And so folks, that's it....no more wedding stuff for Felipe and I...now we can enjoy just being married. See us in about 49 years...and maybe we'll be up to celebrating again :D
