Spanish Fiesta! Pomegranate Event Decor designs and executes a gorgeous 4-day wedding in Bilbao, Spain.
The Destination-Bewitching Bilbao! An excellent option for a destination wedding, Bilbao, in the Basque country, is a prime example of urban restructuring, having transitioned from an industrial city to a city of services and culture. Owing to its history and location, Bilbao is a magnificent cocktail where architecture, tradition, sea and mountain, character and history are blended to offer the visitor endless leisure and cultural opportunities. The Botxo (Hole), as it is fondly known to its inhabitants, has now matured into its role of a major European art centre. However, in doing so, it has not forgotten its past; at heart, it remains a hard-working town with a real character. It’s this down-to-earth soul that’s the real attraction of the vital, exciting and cultured city of Bilbao.
In June 2016, Pomegranate Event Decor planned, designed and executed a 4-day destination wedding in Bilbao, Spain. The creative brain behind the agency is well known Wedding Designer Gayatri Sekhri. The wedding venues were located both in the city centre and the countryside. The Welcome Party At Guggenheim Museum: Wedding guests mingled in the Guggenheim Atrium with music, drinks and typical Basque region food. This was the perfect start to this Spanish extravaganza. Guests were enthralled by Spanish music and tango dancers. Additionally, they enjoyed the art on display by some of the most famous artists from around the world. The Sangeet and Mehendi At Loizaga Tower Gardens: The venue was a truly stunning location for the Moroccan and Indian inspired décor that was created! Beautiful arches adorned the performance stage with LED screens and intelligent lighting. Moroccan tents in orange, red and white were set up for the two bars. A Jali courtyard was created for lounging and dancing
