Our Very Own Cinderella Story……

Although the weather wasn’t as good as we would have wished for, yesterday’s wedding went very well and was enjoyed by all;  someone certainly must have enjoyed themselves as we found a very nice pair of shoes next to Reception this morning! (See photo below) Anyone know who they belong to?

Cinderella´s shoes left at reception

Anyone know who these shoes belong to?

The shoes somehow made their way to the bay window area next to Reception and have remained there all day. Now before anyone has a go at the housekeeping team for not removing them, we actually decided to leave them there and see if the owner decided to retrieve them, but nothing yet….. probably a little embarrassed! 😉

It really is our very own Cinderella story as yesterday’s wedding even had a horse and carriage to take the bride and groom to the church. Not sure if they turned in to a pumpkin and mice at the end of the night but those shoes are definitely still looking for an owner!

Horse & Carriage for Wedding at Sunset Beach Club

Horse & Carriage for Yesterday's Wedding

Putting the party into Wedding Party!

Unsuspecting guests may have mistaken Wednesday’s wedding for a children’s birthday party! Lisa and Jez didn’t want a formal bash but instead wanted their day to be as relaxed and truly enjoyable as possible, not just for themselves but for all of their guests, especially the younger ones! After getting married in Gibraltar the couple that live locally here on the Costa del Sol travelled back to the Hotel where they greeted guests with a cava and canapé reception followed by gala dinner and then after party. The bride pulled out all the stops when it came to decorating the banquet room, brightly coloured balloons, assorted chair ribbons and incredible amounts of sweets and chocolate on every available surface, not to mention the cake! Words can’t describe, so hopefully this picture does the trick, a fantastically fun day was enjoyed by all!

First wedding of the year!

Today is the official start to the Sunset Beach Club wedding season! Our first wedding of the year is that of Liisa and Taisto, which as you may have guessed from their names are a Finnish couple. They are holding the ceremony locally and then celebrating with family and close friends at a dinner reception in our Sala Malaga which has been beautifully decorated with red ribbons and rose petals!

Busy weekend at Holiday World Dublin

Debbie and Chelo had a busy weekend at the Holiday World show at the RDS in Dublin, where they introduced lots of visitors to Sunset Beach Club, and also caught up with some regular guests. A great show, with no shortage of interest from families, golfers, and also some brides, who we also hope to see next week at the Bride of the Year Show. Watch this space for news tomorrow of the winner of the Prize Draw. The lucky winner will receive three nights accommodation at Sunset Beach Club.

My first wedding exhibition!

The first English speaking wedding show on the Costa del Sol took place last weekend. The Perfect Wedding Expo was held at the Palacio de la Paz in the Fuengirola fairground. It was the first wedding fair I have attended and I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and the great turn-out of both exhibitors and visitors. There were suppliers present for everything from delicious chcoolate fountains, beautiful wedding dress and evening gown designs to diamonds and jewellery as well as florists, planners and photographers, making it the one stop shop for any bride to be, planning their wedding on the coast. Myself, Claire – our wedding co ordinator and Kerry – our wedding planner looked after the Sunset Beach Club stand, click here to take a look at our stand!
