Taina & François – Wedding at Finca Botania, Málaga

Taina got ready on a villa balcony with the hills on one side and a strip of Mediterranean on the other. Her dress had a big sculpted bow at the front, and a little girl with flowers in her hair stole most of the morning.

François waited at a floral arch of orange roses and pampas grass, in a pale blue suit and navy bow tie. Taina walked in through the palm garden of Finca Botania, in Ciudad Jardín, Málaga, on the arm of the man in the black hat who later danced with half the guests.

The ceremony was full of laughter. The couple sat in velvet armchairs, the little girl climbed onto their laps, and they left down the aisle under a shower of petals.

The party started under strings of fairy lights, with speeches read from paper and from phones, a cake with sparklers and a straw hat that went from head to head. By midnight the dance floor was smoke, turquoise and pink light, and both of them ended up in the air.
