GLORIA & MARK
Saturday, 12th April 2014
Hola!
Welcome to our wedding website where you should find all the information you need to plan your trip and make the most of the weekend.
So why did we choose Spain and in particular Cadiz? The answer is simple… Not only is it a beautiful location and an excuse to get away, it is also where we became an official couple, during a rather elaborate 4th date.
Getting started:
On Friday 11th April we will be reserving an area in a tapas bar in the local town of Castellar de la Frontera to get everyone better acquainted with each other and the local delicacies.
The Big Day:
The ceremony will take place in the Chapel at La Almoraima Hotel (www.laalmoraimahotel.com)
on Saturday 12th April at 13:00. This will be followed by drinks and canapes in the courtyard of the same venue before you are seated for the wedding breakfast. ‘After some sumptuous food and riveting speeches, you will be free to dance/drink the night away.
The Final Chapter:
To round off the celebrations, on Sunday 13th April we will be hosting an early afternoon BBQ/ Paella lunch on the grounds of La Almoraima in order to piece together the events of the previous day and take some time to relax before heading home.
ACCOMMODATION
We have reserved La Almoraima exclusively for us and our wedding guests for 2 nights (Friday 11th and Saturday 12th April), but as it only has 23 rooms, we have allocated these rooms to close family and friends. However, we have been recommended an excellent alternative that should be able to accommodate everybody else…

70 € for a Double Room with breakfast and taxes included
90 € for a Triple Room with breakfast and taxes

We have visited the hotel ourselves and would be confident in recommending it.
