Shyla + Carter // A Fairy Tale Wedding at Parador Sigüenza

As a wedding planner, I have the rare privilege of witnessing unforgettable love stories unfold. Today, I am thrilled to share the details of a magical wedding celebration at the enchanting Parador de Sigüenza in Spain, where Shyla and Carter embarked on a three-day journey that united two hearts and two families.


The following highlight from our amazing friends at PTaufiq Photography is bound to give you goosebumps:

Shyla, a radiant bride from Boston, and Carter, a charismatic groom from New Jersey, had their fateful encounter in the city of love, Paris. It was there that they had their engagement shoot, capturing the essence of their love story against the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower and the Seine River. It was only fitting that their wedding would be set in a location as breathtaking and romantic as the start of their journey together.







The Parador Sigüenza: A Castle Fit for Royalty


Nestled in the heart of Spain, the Parador Sigüenza is a 12th-century castle that has been transformed into a luxurious hotel. With its stunning architecture, exquisite gardens, and captivating history, it provided the perfect setting for a fairy tale wedding.











The festivities kicked off with a warm welcome dinner or sangeet for friends and family who traveled from the United States and other parts of the world to witness Shyla and Carter's nuptials. The evening was filled with laughter, heartfelt toasts, and a mouthwatering array of Spanish tapas, as guests mingled in the castle's grand foyer.








The day of the wedding dawned bright and clear, with sunlight streaming through the castle's ancient windows. Shyla looked mesmerizing in her elegant gown, while Carter donned a sharp, tailored sherwani befitting the sophisticated atmosphere of the Parador.








The ceremony took place in the castle's exquisite courtyard, with its soaring walls and intricate architecture. Shyla and Carter exchanged vows in a heartfelt ceremony, accompanied by the soft strains of shenai music.

With its captivating backdrop and unforgettable moments, Shyla and Carter's wedding at the Parador Sigüenza will be remembered and cherished for years to come. As a wedding planner, witnessing such a beautiful union between two people in love is a treasure to behold, and I am honored to have been a part of their special day.


And a special shoutout to all the vendors that made this wedding happen, especially our friends at PTaufiq Photography who contributed these phenomenal photos for this amazing story.
