Ellie and Daniel came from Manchester with no interest in spectacle. Sixty guests, one place, one long evening. They wanted something small enough to feel like theirs.
Getting ready at Ponent de Mar, Palmanova
A restaurant in Génova, above Palma
The whole wedding took place at Lume & Co in Génova, just above Palma, a restaurant rather than an estate, which suited them entirely. Nothing about the day was scaled up to impress anyone.
A candle-lit ceremony led by their parents
The ceremony was led by their parents. At its centre was a moment where the two of them lit candles together, a small symbolic gesture that landed harder than anyone expected. There were a lot of tears. Not the polite kind, but the kind that come when a room is genuinely full of love and everyone notices at the same time.

Sixty guests, one long evening
What followed was warm, unhurried, and close. Sixty people who all knew each other, in one space, staying late.
Some weddings are about scale. This one was about proximity.
