Alexandra + Jacob | April 29, 2017 | Rome, Italy
The Ceremony
We rented the most beautiful room in the Villa to have the ceremony, we brought our own priest from Sweden. We hired a soprano singer that was just stunning, she sang ” te prometo by Il divo”, Ave Maria and finally O´sole mio. It was just a Concert! Our priest spoke in Swedish, Spanish and English, we had guest from all over the world and we wanted everyone to feel welcome.
The Reception
The reception started at the garden, and later on we sat on a terrace with the view over Rome, seeing the sun go down, it couldn’t be more powerful and beautiful. There we enjoyed the very good kitchen from the Hotel a 5 dishes menu and the speeches from all the people we love. Later one we moved to the cake room where we dance our first dance “hay amores” By Shakira and “vem vet ” by Lisa Ekdahl, both a song in Spanish and one in Swedish… later the party was on!
