This charming “Rancho” in the middle of the nature in Malaga was the best possible venue to celebrate the wedding of this sweet couple. Not only the property is fantastic -and you feel at home as you walk in- but it is run by this superb family, who have been taking such a good care of every detail, that they have turned this place into the perfect spot for a countryside wedding.
The Rancho features an incredible landscape, but the addition of all kind of elements brought from different spots of the world and strategically positioned along the property, makes the visitor feel as if he or she had travelled back in time to the nineteenth century… Aren’t the bike or the tractor on the photos just lovely?
The couple was looking for a casual ambience where everyone would feel relaxed and have a good time. Guests were welcomed with fresh limonade and mint tea, before they attended the civil ceremony, which was celebrated on premises, under a “pergola”, which served as the best cover for the altar.
Music played a main role during the ceremony, with the perfect selection of themes at each momentum, and the performance of a flamenco singer and a guitarrist, singing directly for the bride and groom…
As part of this relaxed atmosphere, it was decided to serve a casual dinner based on typical Spanish dishes, presented in buffet style, and leave the guests to choose their seat with freedom (so, none of my beloved table plans or escort cards this time ;o)
Dinning tables with colourful flowers on top were gathered by the side of a few buffet stations with the most original, and yet practical set up. All food looked irressitable and tasted delicious! I love the effect of these wooden chairs with the white linen ad the sparkling candles on top…
I leave you with this romantic photo of the couple taking a pause on their way from the cocktail to the dinning area… Look at this incredible surroundings and you will have to agree with me that this is a special place to get married at!
A last pro about this finca is the possibility to accomodate up to 20 guests on the night of the wedding/event (included in the rental price), in some absolutely charming “casitas” on site!
