Our Story

Our journey began in the heart of Hackney, but as it turns out, the universe had been plotting our introduction for much longer. Though our paths didn't officially cross until our siblings took matters into their own hands and set us up on our first date, we later discovered we’d actually met way back in 2013 without even knowing it!


Since then we’ve channeled our shared thirst for adventure into travelling the world together, with every holiday serving as a milestone—a distinct stage of our relationship mapped out across different continents!


Take a look through the gallery below to see some of our favourite moments together :)

Q + A

Do I need to stay at the Melia Lebreros?

Not at all! While the coaches depart from there, you are welcome to stay wherever you like in the city. Seville has beautiful boutique hotels and Airbnbs. Just ensure you can get to the Melia Lebreros in time for the 4:00 PM departure.


What is the plan for the day between the Welcome Fiesta and the Wedding?

We’ve left Wednesday completely free so you can explore the magic of Seville! Whether you want to visit the Alcázar or just find a quiet plaza for a cold drink, the day is yours.


Will there be food at the Welcome Fiesta?

Yes! We will be providing plenty of food and drinks at the fiesta, so you don't need to worry about making dinner plans that evening.


When is dinner served on the Wedding day?

In true Spanish style, the party starts late! Dinner will be served in the evening following our sunset ceremony. Please make sure to have a late lunch on Thursday afternoon so you aren't feeling peckish before the wedding banquet begins.


Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

Our Welcome Fiesta, Ceremony and Reception will all be held outdoors. We have timed each event to enjoy the beautiful golden hour and the cooler evening breeze.


What is the weather like in September?

September in Seville is stunning, typically reaching highs of 30°C during the day and dropping to a comfortable 18°C at night. It’s the perfect weather for an outdoor celebration.


How do I get around Seville?

Seville is a very walkable city! For longer distances, Uber, Cabify, and local taxis are readily available and very affordable.


What if I have dietary requirements?

Please let us know of any allergies or dietary restrictions when you RSVP so we can ensure the kitchen prepares something delicious for you.
