A Chic Spanish Wedding with Champagne Towers & Garden Views

Photographed by Crystel Photography

Overlooking the historic city of Toledo, Cigarral de las Mercedes set the scene for a wedding that felt polished, personal, and full of heart. With soft lighting, natural textures, and a timeless colour palette, this celebration leaned into atmosphere over excess — the kind of wedding that feels both considered and completely effortless.

The bride and groom share a quiet embrace at Cigarral de la Mercedes, lost in the intimacy of the moment.

The bride chose a structured off-the-shoulder gown with a thigh-high slit, pairing it with a bouquet of creamy peonies tied with silk ribbon. Her styling was classic with a modern twist: a sleek bun, pearl drop earrings, and sheer gloves worn just for the ceremony. Getting ready was as joyful as the day itself, with a bridesmaid in a champagne-toned dress helping with the final zip.

After the ceremony, the couple walked back down the aisle beneath a flurry of rose petals, holding hands and laughing. A champagne tower followed — caught mid-pour in a motion-blurred shot by Crystel Photography — before everyone took their seats for a long dinner under the trees. The table design was stripped back but refined, with taper candles, pale flowers, and rows of glassware catching the last light of day.
