⠀From Spain with Love:
A Wedding Beyond Expectations for Dovile & Kai by Barefoot Bride
There’s something undeniably special about a destination wedding, and this one was no exception. This time, we stepped outside our usual Tenerife weddings and landed in the charming seaside village of Vilanova, just outside Barcelona. Picture long sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a venue Xalet del Nin that felt like a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.
The couple had a vision: a private, lush setting with breathtaking panoramic views. Finding the one wasn’t easy, but when we did, it was love at first sight. So much so, they booked it without even visiting! And when they finally did? It was even better than the photos.
Guests traveled from all over the world – Germany, Lithuania, the UK, UAE, Spain, and more. A true destination wedding! The ceremony took place in a gorgeous garden overlooking the ocean, followed by a relaxed cocktail hour while the couple slipped away for some stunning portraits. The energy was electric, and things only got better from there.
The band? An absolute sensation. They played every request – even an old Italian classic they’d never heard before. Just two minutes later, they were back with a perfect version of Sarà perché ti amo.
Style-wise, this wedding was perfection. The bride’s friends may not have been official bridesmaids, but their color-coordinated look made it feel like they had a full-on bridal party. The bride stunned in a custom gown with a sparkling fitted bodice, a flowing A-line skirt, and the most romantic off-the-shoulder neckline. Later, she switched into a chic mini dress – perfect for the couple’s choreographed first dance (yes, they absolutely nailed it). Because what’s a party without a dress change?
Of course, no celebration is complete without a little drama – the good kind. The groom opened a bottle of champagne with a saber for the champagne tower. And, because one epic moment wasn’t enough, they cut their towering wedding cake with the saber, too. Oh, and did we mention their dog was part of the festivities? Because, of course, she was.
The magic didn’t end there. The next day, the newlyweds gathered their guests for a post-wedding rooftop party – a final chance to soak in the Spanish sunshine and celebrate the best weekend ever.
Some weddings just have that extra spark, and this was one of them. It wasn’t just about the picture-perfect venue or the dreamy dress – it was about the moments that felt so effortlessly them. And that’s exactly what we, Barefoot Bride girls, love to create.
Tenerife, Barcelona, or anywhere your love story takes you – we’ll find the place that feels like the one. Because the best weddings aren’t just beautifully planned – they’re unforgettable experiences.
