The wedding of Alonso Aznar and Renata Collado, Held last Saturday in Mérida, Yucatán, it became a perfect example of this art of mystery. While the social press and the curious searched for any clues, the event took place in a carefully protected bubble. It was not until this Wednesday that the images of the wedding, under the protection of a photographic exclusive, came to light, revealing what had been a feast of elites with a colonial flavor.

The day before, Palomeque House, a 19th century mansion steeped in history, witnessed the welcome cocktail. Between high stone walls and tree-lined patios, the guests toasted the happiness of the couple.

The ceremony marked the beginning of a day that overflowed with style and tradition.

Ana Botella, mother of the groom, served as proud godmother and took much of the limelight with a powder pink dress, adorned with subtle chiffon knots on the neckline and skirt.

But the one who really sparked murmurs was Tamara Falcó, with a spectacular red skirt that, when she walked, seemed to flutter like a banner in the breeze. The men, faithful to the classic code, wore morning coats in shades of gray. José María Aznar, former president of the Government and father of the groom, He wore a solemn demeanor, while Alejandro Agag, Alonso’s brother-in-law, provided his usual security under the brim of a straw hat that soon became the accessory of the day.

After the ceremony, the guests moved to a reserved space within the Matilde Squad, a modern construction that, surrounded by nature, seemed to want to merge past and present. There, under the warm light of candles and the whisper of music, a dinner was served that followed the format of imperial tables, with wild flowers and touches of minimalist design. The privacy of this wedding was, without a doubt, its greatest luxury. In a world saturated with exhibitionism, the silence around the event became a sign of exclusivity. That the images have been revealed days later may be a courtesy gesture towards the magazine that does business publishing the event, which is Hello, of course.
