The devil is in the detail-as you say. And that is what made the wedding of Sandy and Hendrik from
Germany so special.
This year‘s wedding season started out with the wedding of S & H, who invited their family and
friends from Germany, Canada and Australia to Casa Felix in Olivella.
Casa Felix is characterized by its many rooms and gardens, in which S & H fell in love with
immediately during their visit in April.
As a color for the wedding, the couple had opted for blue. From the wedding invitation, to the bridal
bouquet to the decoration in general, all sorts of blue were to be found. Sandy also chose the color
blue for her look and wished to have blue flower details in her bridal hairstyle.
And a thing could not be missing – the obligatory unicorn in the pool. But that was not the only
unicorn detail at the wedding – as a wedding gift they were given a Piñata, of course in the form of a
unicorn. And even the box in which the church books were placed, was printed with unicorns.
Somebody seems to be a fan of the mythical stuff.
The German-English ceremony took place in the Iglesia de Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla in Sitges.
Sandy, who works in Germany for the car brand Mazda, got the bridal car sponsored by her employer
and was befitting her ancestor with her bridesmaid in a Mazda convertible.
After the wedding ceremony, the guests went to Casa Felix where they had the welcome drink in
the kitchen garden.
This was followed by a 2-hour long aperitif in the long garden with fresh Iberian ham and other
Mediterranean specialties …
… next followed the banquet by the pool. There was a big BBQ with Spanish and Catalan delicacies
Instead of a wedding cake, the guests were surprised with a dessert buffet, which left nothing to be
desired-in addition to macarons, fruit skewers and Sachertörtchen, and of course the typical Crema
Catalana.
A highlight, of course, also held in blue, were the gifts. There was a shot glass in each square with a
bottle of vodka and Ahoj effervescent powder.
This mixture is probably only known in Germany and was consumed later in the evening by the
guests.
The story behind it: S & H drank Ahoj Brause-Vodka when they met – well maybe – they do not
remember exactly (-;
For the kids there were M&Ms with the faces of S & H.
In the old beautiful basement of the house, the dance floor was then swung until late at night and
one or two drinks were taken at the open bar.
All in all, the small details made the wedding so special and a highlight not only for us.
