The bride and the groom's wedding
Hi,
No, the title of this post is not about me who got married, but Ruben's cousin Monica and her man Sergi. It was a traditional spanish wedding that I finally experienced. I haven't been to many weddings in my life, probably 3 or 4.
Before the wedding we went to Barcelona to buy our outfits to wear, but I didn't found one so I decided to wear one of my dress that I have never worn. It was a lot of back and forth to Barcelona to where we live which took us two hours with the train. Then we had to come back packed our stuff to stay over weekend in Barcelona and leaved the dogs in the pet shop. Well actually they stayed at the home with a huge of garden near the forest of the owner of a pet store. They had fun playing with other dogs that were also staying in the same place.
The wedding was saturday at 12:30, so we took the car along with Ruben's cousin Alba and her boyfriend Nano, me, Ruben ( who drove the car ) and Ruben's mom. It was about 30-40 minutes drive to the place outside Barcelona. It was so beautiful, the places in Spain doesn't look the same in every place, it's very different. It was like paradise, the nature, the area, beautiful houses. Loved the place!
We drove to the church to start the wedding. There were around 60-70 visitors, it was a tiny wedding. The wedding was very simple, no bridesmaid, just the bride along with her father walking to the altar. The church was little, very simple. There was a girl singing to famous love songs in the wedding. The ceremony went fast and after that we drove to the restaurant nearby for to celebrate. The place was amazing surrounded with olive trees. It was amazing amazing!.
We started eating snacks and a lot of drinks at the bar. We were in a huge terrace on were you can see the view of the place. The weather was lovely and a little bit to hot, but no problem because we spended most of our time inside the restaurant later on. The restaurant was enormous!
After the snacks we went inside the restaurant for to eat plates and the cake, ofcourse we took a lot of photos and they had proffesional wedding photographer all the time.
After the food, we continuely went to the dance room for to dance and drink a lot of alchohol until around 20-21:00. The seniors went home by that time and the rest of us continued to celebrate the just married couple at the home of the groom, close by. It was a big house with pool and beautiful garden. We were outside the garden with dj, music and a woman who served us drinks like mojitos and snacks :).
The party finished at 01:00 midnight, but we decided to drive home 30 minutes later. We supposed to drive home with Alba and Nano, but they stayed, so it ended up with me and Ruben driving home. We did not reach the highway because he have been drinking too and there was control closer, so the best way was park the car somewhere and sleep in the car until 07:30.

I complained a lot because I wanted to sleep on the bed, but the travel was long, poor him who drive.
At 07:30 when the sun came up we drove up and finally get able to sleep. Just slept few hours and we had family lunch at the their home. It was a loooong day!
It was a great wedding and weekend despite sleeping in the car. We picked up the dog at 10:30 monday morning and they were very happy to see us, even though that they had fun weekend.
