When Raisa and Paul envisioned their wedding, they imagined a day that effortlessly blended tradition with celebration. Their search for the perfect venue led them to the breathtaking Atzaró Hotel in the Ibiza countryside, where swaying palms and wildflowers set the stage for a ceremony and reception that felt both intimate and grand.
THE DRESS
“I absolutely fell in love with the dress that could flow seamlessly from church to party,” Raisa recalls. She wanted something that could carry her from a traditional ceremony straight into a vibrant celebration, and the Christian skirt paired with the delicate Ada lace bodysuit and statement Ariel Bow did just that.
The mix of lace and mikado created a contrast of texture and movement, reflecting Raisa’s desire for a look that was elegant yet effortless. Every detail was designed with the day — and the dancing — in mind, ensuring she felt comfortable, confident, and completely herself.
THE DAY
Every element of the wedding was a reflection of Raisa and Paul’s style. Vibrant blooms added natural charm, while a singer and string ensemble set the perfect tone for both ceremony and party.
”I still can’t believe how perfect everything was—from the venue to the dress, and every single detail in between,” Raisa says. “It was exactly how we imagined our day, and more.”
“Such an exciting and personal experience from start to finish. Kate made me feel so comfortable and the whole Halfpenny team were amazing to work with, making me feel at ease and excited for the final piece and big day!”
