Susannah & Oscar's Wedding in Basque Country by 20 Eventos

Wedding planner 20Eventos and photographer Iván Pérez Fotógrafo collaborate to bring us Susannah and Oscars Wedding. Susannah and Oscar came from different lands, she from Australia and him from Sweden. Tying their knot last summer in Getaria.

The wedding is held at Hotel San Prudentzio. Surrounded by vineyards, this boutique hotel is cozy and perfect for an intimate wedding of 50 guests. White furniture was rented from Loyola SXXI for the ceremony in the yard while Villaflores provided lovely flowers for this entire wedding. From white little daisies to the bridal bouquet of pink and cream, each bouquet brightens up a corner, whether behind seats or above the tables.

Oscar was in deep striking blue suit with a lighter colored tie. In his chic glasses, he appeared studious and smart for his own wedding! Striding down the aisle proudly, swaying his arms in a relaxed manner, looking not a slight bit nervous.

Susannah walked down the aisle led by her father, in a simple gown by Pronovias while her bridesmaids were in similar dresses from Asos. The marriage celebrant read his part, allowed each their turn at their vows, exchange their rings and announced them married before the audience. Leaving the venue in style, the guests scattered flower petals in the air, celebrating the newly formed union of this couple.

The wedding theme was chosen to be simple, relaxed, chic and elegant. The couple want their guest to enjoy and feel a basque experience. For that reason, for the appetizers after the ceremony, the catering set up 7 different food stations like if it was a typical basque market. There were stations of Iberic ham, french cheese, tuna cooked in different ways, mushrooms, vegetables, foie grass. The guests really enjoyed this experience since they were free to move from each food station while they were able to speak with their friends.

After the appetizers all the guest moved to a tent where they were having the dinner. The tent was lighted with a lot of little lights so it seem that they were having dinner under the stars. Each table was decorate in a different way but always keeping the same color scheme (white and green).

The bride and groom soon arrived in strikes, waving their arms along the way. Guests cheered along, amused by their sudden entrance. Their parents delivered speeches, adding reminiscence moments that keep the audience teary.

After the dessert, the party took off until real late… Dancing under thousand of glittering stars (lights actually!), the couple switched from a romantic wedding dance to more crazy moves. Joined in by the guests, the night ended in a splendor with smiles over everyone’s face.
