From the stunning burgundy bridesmaid dresses to the evening reception under the stars, Chantal and Seb's wedding was a sun-soaked day full of love and joy.

The Setting: Alaró, Mallorca

Alaró, a small town nestled in the foothills of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, was the ideal location for Chantal and Seb’s destination wedding. Known for its beautiful, winding streets, stunning views, and old-world charm, the town provided the perfect backdrop for their wedding photographs. The couple, along with their bridal party, took full advantage of the scenic beauty, with photos taken in the sun-drenched streets lined with traditional Spanish houses, vibrant flowers cascading from balconies, and historic stone walls giving the pictures a timeless feel.

The streets of Alaró, with their warm, rustic tones, complemented the rich burgundy of the bridesmaids' dresses beautifully, making the photos feel vibrant and alive. The natural light of the Mallorcan sun added a golden glow to every shot, creating a magical, almost cinematic atmosphere that perfectly captured the joy and excitement of the day.

The Ceremony: A Traditional Church Wedding

Chantal and Seb exchanged their vows in a traditional Spanish church, steeped in history and filled with stunning architecture. The grand, yet intimate setting was perfect for their heartfelt ceremony, with high vaulted ceilings, intricate stonework, and sunlight streaming in through stained-glass windows. The air was filled with anticipation and emotion as they stood before their closest family and friends, committing their lives to one another.

The church, with its ornate details and serene ambiance, provided a beautiful contrast to the relaxed, outdoor reception that followed. It was a touching and spiritual start to a day that would continue with laughter, dancing, and celebration.

The Bridesmaids: Burgundy Beauties

Chantal’s bridesmaids added a pop of rich, vibrant colour to the day all wearing Chianti red. The girls wore our Florence Waterfall, a chic wrap-style dress in a deep burgundy hue that perfectly suited the warmth of the Spanish summer and the elegance of the church setting. The wrap style was not only flattering on every bridesmaid but also practical for the warm weather, allowing the girls to feel comfortable and look effortlessly stylish.

The burgundy colour complemented the warm tones of the Mallorcan streets and the natural beauty of the setting sun, blending perfectly with the outdoor, summery feel of the reception while still standing out in the traditional church. It was a bold, beautiful choice that tied the bridal party’s look together seamlessly.

The Reception: Under the Summer Sun and Evening Stars

After the ceremony, guests were led to an outdoor reception under the clear blue sky, where they were greeted with a scene straight out of a Mediterranean dream. Long tables were set up in a sun-dappled courtyard, surrounded by lush greenery and festooned with string lights. As the summer sun began to set, the space transformed into an enchanting setting for the evening festivities.

Guests enjoyed a relaxed, al fresco dinner with delicious Spanish dishes, local wines, and plenty of heartfelt toasts. The outdoor reception was the perfect way to embrace the beauty of Mallorca’s summer weather, with a warm breeze gently blowing through the air and the soft glow of candlelight creating a magical atmosphere as the night went on.

As the evening turned into night, the reception moved under the stars. The string lights twinkled overhead as Chantal and Seb shared their first dance, with the mountains in the distance and the clear summer sky above. The music, laughter, and clinking of glasses filled the night as guests danced, celebrated, and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.
