The Venue
La Casa de Monico , An Enchanting Green Oasis
Hidden in the rolling countryside only 30 minutes from central Madrid, this private estate blends manicured lawns, centuries‑old trees, and ivy‑covered stone façades. Guests were greeted by fragrant blooms and meandering pathways that led to an open‑air courtyard, ideal for mingling before the ceremony and perfect for those all‑important photos.
A Heartfelt Bilingual Ceremony just before sunset
As the sun dipped toward the horizon, as a wedding officiant, sometimes a blingual ceremony can be challenging.
Its important to seamlessly switch between English and Spanish, ensuring every guest feels the emotion behind the vows and feels totally included
As the couple exchanged rings beneath the dappled sunlit trees, they were met with joyful cheers echoing in two languages.
It really was an absolute pleasure to write this ceremony for Carly and Nico , and to be able to host it in such a beautiful venue
