The day they had been dreaming about had arrived. Hours to dance, minutes to be celebrated, and memories that would last forever. This was a
moving and wished for occasion, the day of Leti and John’s wedding. On the
17th of October 2020
the couple culminated their love story, woven with emotional moments that they now treasure in their memory. An incredibly
emotional ceremony where
Setenta y Nueve
was present, through their
wedding bands. This is the story of dreamy nuptials, with Leti’s ‘Sí quiero’ and John’s ‘I do’, but also the tale of a union where many were missing; however, there was infinite love in the
background and an overwhelming current of energy from across the world.
A perfect wedding with absences, and a lot of love
The main characters of this love story had dreamt with a moving ceremony in Mallorca, they imagined being among their favourite people and fantasised about dancing until dawn. And despite really missing several loved ones,
and face masks being present in the photographs, the bride and groom lived a perfect day surrounded by love. The virtual presence of friends and family, who didn’t miss a thing in the ceremony, even from a distance,
eased the pain of the absences and filled empty chairs.
“And yes, a wedding can be perfect during a pandemic”
John McAulay and Leti Lope became husband and wife in Mallorca while wearing pieces from the
Bridal Collection
by Setenta y Nueve. Two yellow gold bands that the now newlyweds chose in
Relojería Alemana’s shop in Calle Colón.
Even though 2020 didn’t make it easy for them, the couple had the wedding they dreamt of. The union was more reduced than they originally intended, because of the limit in the number of people and the long distances.
However, there they were, radiant, in one of the most important moments of their lives. “2020 came like this” said the bride, “but it has been a year when we figured out that our love is above all: the pandemic,
the distance and any other obstacle.”
The heart holds on to the
nostalgia caused by absences, and perhaps some frustration, but the power of a
beautiful story like theirs always prevails;
Leti,
from Mallorca, and John, born in London.
Setenta y Nueve wedding rings and other pieces to seal their love
The San Nicolás parish in Palma de Mallorca was the location Leti and John chose to become man and wife, guided by Don Bernardo, an affectionate priest. The Finca Son Termes, close by, was where family, witnesses,
bride and groom met for the wedding reception; a great environment for the perfect wedding with a Majorcan atmosphere.
Wedding rings are a symbol that will always be visible in the hands of those who wear them, it goes through the heart and safeguards love messages forever. Because of all the meaning carried by wedding bands,
the couple wanted the
personalised advice and the faultless customer service provided by Relojería Alemana.
With the help of Paula Fuster, the bride and groom chose the pieces they would exchange that magical day. In Leti’s words, “the best piece of advice Paula gave us was to pick wedding rings with which we felt comfortable
during our everyday lives”. And the couple saw it clearly, the yellow gold wedding bands had won them over.
“The Setenta y Nueve wedding bands will take us daily to the most incredible moment of our lives”
