A Destination Celebration in Toledo
Photographed by AM Love Stories
Kierra and Robert chose the historic city of Toledo, Spain as the backdrop for their destination wedding — gathering 140 guests from Bermuda and beyond for a weekend filled with joy, color, and personal style. Their chosen venue, El Cigarral de las Mercedes, is one of Spain’s most celebrated estates, known for its sweeping views and unique character that makes every wedding unforgettable.
The day unfolded with moments of pure delight, from the bridal party in floral robes enjoying a carefree morning together, to guests arriving dressed in summer hues, parasols in hand. As the photographers from AM Love Stories shared, “The day was filled with unforgettable moments: live music that brought the celebration to life, dreamy floral decorations that transformed the venue, and a couple who truly shone.”
Kierra’s look was striking yet effortless, with an off-the-shoulder gown paired with flowing curls and delicate pearl details. Robert surprised guests with a bold nod to Bermudian tradition, wearing tailored blue shorts with knee-high socks and a navy blazer — a look that set a joyful, playful tone for the day. Together they created a celebration that felt vibrant and full of personality, perfectly suited to the Spanish setting.
The ceremony took place outdoors beneath centuries-old trees, with floral arrangements framing the aisle in soft shades of peach, pink, and cream. The energy of the day carried seamlessly into the evening, with a lively dinner, dancing, and moments that blended modern romance with cultural touches. Guests dined under the stars, enjoying Spanish flavors and heartfelt speeches before the party moved indoors.
Looking at the imagery, it’s clear why Spain has become such a sought-after destination for couples planning to marry abroad. For those considering a wedding in Spain, venues like El Cigarral de las Mercedes offer not only breathtaking surroundings but also the chance to create a celebration infused with character and style.
