She is a successful chef, artist and high-concept event planner, he is a graphic designer and art director of 'Apartamento' magazine and together, their Spanish wedding really presents "an air of fantasy-made-real."
Laila Gohar and Omar Sosa had already gotten married in February, but they owed their friends and family an authentically cheerful Spanish wedding celebration. The couple chose to orchestrate a weekend-long party in the rather quiet town of Cazalla de la Sierra. Commemorating the start of their life together, the newlyweds held the first night's dinner in a historic bullfighting ring and arrived on horseback. The evening was highlighted with local customs—dancing horses, marching bands and traditional dinner entrees. The rest of the Spanish wedding weekend celebration was illuminated by exuberant moments of happiness, couture fashion and delicious food.
