My big fat greek wedding? – Don’t think so
Try a bit of this and get yourself to Tenerife
Food for thought…
I think, it´s an unknown fact that a wedding in paradise can exist without travelling for days on end and without incurring a huge hole in ones pocket!
Ever been invited to a wedding knowing that you could only dream about attending? Sadly you decline because of cost, distance and time. Recently. I received a wedding invitation to attend a wedding blessing in Tenerife.
Wedding Party on the go…
The initial wedding ceremony took place at the local registry office. Sound plain and simple? The best was yet to come! Bags packed and ready, the mini bus waiting, off to the airport and on our way to sunny Tenerife. Leaving behind the freezing cold, drizzling, drab weather.
Couldn´t believe that the journey from the airport was only 10 minutes. We checked into the most quaint resort, part of the The Ritz Resorts group, situated in Amarilla Golf in the South of sunny Tenerife. People say you can´t change a first impression, here, you really wouldn´t want to. We were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome and efficiency second to none, with everything organised by the Tenerife hosts and the wedding planner at this charming Canarian resort.
Wedding Accommodation…
All the wedding party had been accommodated on site, 48 in total. The wedding accommodation in Tenerife was suprisingly cheap and yet consisted of the most exquisite self catering apartments, the standard of which was incredible. The Hotel staff in Tenerife can´t do enough for you and cater for your every need. Totally uninterupted paradise.
Wedding dreams turn to reality…
The Ritz resorts, Tenerife, had really gone to town, pulled out all the stops! The Ritz Resorts hosts with their invaluable advice and skilled wedding organisation experience had arranged and carried out every wish, instruction and minor wedding detail as instructed by the bride and groom.
Fairytale wedding begins…Picture this…
The local Priest in Tenerife, is of Irish origen, so no language barriers. He carried out the wedding ceremony by the pool and the whole ambiance was that of a fairytale wedding. A sight to be seen, the bride and groom in exotic surroundings. The bridesmaids, with their fresh flower bouquets. The pool too, with its tropical flower arrangements floating, the outside stairways and arches all coming to life, covered with sweet smelling flowers, soft music that floated on the Atlantic breeze, tropical foliage and tall palm trees swaying gently and in the not too far distance, the Atlantic Ocean and near beaches of Los Cristianos and Las Americas. There is something so special about this wedding abroad.
A Tenerife wedding breakfast…
What a sight for sore eyes! Tables laid with the most delectable, mouth watering food, the likes set only for a king! With several varieties of salads and pastas, Canarian potatoes, platters filled with mixtures of roast meats and poultry, whole suckling pigs, poached salmons and a huge king prawn fountain. All being washed down with fine Spanish wines and champagne. The wedding cake seemed to stand in its own kingdom almost as though you were expected to pay homage to it! 8 tiers in all, it swirled around like steps leading up to a turret in a castle, sheer decadance. Made at the local Tenerife bakery, another small detail taken care of by the Tenerife wedding planner with a huge, “knock on effect”.
