Marta Bengoechea Uriarte and AndrГ©s Fondevilla's love has taken them all over Spain. The duo met in 2010 at a party in Madrid, got engaged on a secluded beach in Islas CГeson (after sailing, as the song “QuГ© Bien!” played), and married in Vizcaya. “We loved this place since the very first moment,” says the bride of CaserГo Olagorta, a beautiful restored farmhouse in northern Spain. Their ceremony and reception there, on July 29, 2017, were designed to be both emotional and fun. And while the planning process was very intense, says Marta, it also “revealed our passion, love, and energy.”
For their theme, the couple looked to their environment, selecting the nearby sea for the blue color palette and a star motif as the inspiration for their calligraphed menus and paper goods. In fact, they were so involved in the day's design that they tackled a creative DIY seating chart that referenced their engagement location (a boat!). The result was 150 mini origami creations that doubled as escort cards and favors for their guests.
In short, this romantic wedding was a labor of love from the bride and groom. Keep reading to see how they planned and created such a beautiful event, with the help of Sara Lobla, who captured it perfectly!
