Windows stocked with sweet baked treats with promises of a happy tummy, locals cycling through streets aside zooming taxi’s, restaurant courtyard scenes of conversational midday drinks, fashionable women riding up on sidewalks removing their helmets to expose a look ready to enjoy the evening to come, children chasing each other while their grandparents give their feet a rest, tourists easily mistaken as locals taking siestas in between century old buildings. The city of Barcelona is magical! It’s a place where the interior of a restaurant only becomes alive an hour after the sun’s gone down and damas y caballeros order tapas and bottles of wine and laugh with the maître d, and sundays are closed for shopping to enjoy strolls through the parks with family.
It’s also the location of the largest bridal fashion event! Imagine New York Fashion Week but bridal – that’s how serious Spain takes their wedding gowns. Thanks to Pronovias, I had the utmost privilege of attending the Pronovias grand finale bridal fashion show, held at the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya (MNAC) followed by a spectacular dinner, cocktail, dance party at the King of Spain’s Barcelona home. Obviously I could go on, but instead I shall point you to the video my husband, Andres made of the trip! A little bit of Barcelona sightseeing + a little bit of the pretty from the Pronovias 2013 fashion show! Vale!
