Sometimes there's one element in a wedding that bowls you over just a bit, that makes you stop and go: WOW! When gorgeous bride Raquel designed her own wedding dress, she definitely had that wow factor in mind. Julio, her husband, must have been knocked for six when he caught his first glimpse. Their stunning outdoor black tie celebration is a beauty to behold, Raquel twinkles and twirls in from beginning to end, surrounded by stunning scenery, her beaming groom Julio and loving family and friends. Worth a watch to admire the golden glitter alone... Enjoy!

Raquel and Julio met at Santiago de Compostela and returned here to celebrate their stunning outdoor wedding. With guests informed of the black tie dress code, Raquel knew her dress needed to be that bit extra special. As she had just begun designing, Raquel decided to design her very own. "I didn't wanted the typical wedding dress, and I had in my mind something very light, but at the same time I have always loved mini-dresses, and fabric combinations, so I thought, why not having both?" Combining both elements Raquel designed a chic gold mini dress with a romantic white over lay. The perfect choice for this unique summer wedding.
