Mae and Pablo
Elegant wedding with silent luxury at La Divina Pastora

 

Mae and Pablo wanted an elegant wedding in Havana, without excess, but full of meaning. They live in Spain, but decided to return to Cuba to bring their families together on a day that celebrated much more than just a legal union.

From the beginning, they sought a sober, natural aesthetic, cared for in every detail. Everything had to speak of them: discreet, close, with a taste for the essential. White flowers, fresh greens, and a precise design wrapped an intimate, family-centered, and deeply emotional ceremony.

The preparations at Casa Italia

The day began at Casa Italia, a space we chose thinking beyond comfort: it had to resonate with the simplicity and elegance aesthetic of the wedding. 

 

The room selected was part of the concept from the beginning. The natural light coming through its large windows, the furniture, and the way everything was arranged in the preparation set achieved absolute coherence with the white and green palette.

 

That's why we insist that the preparations are an essential part of the wedding. The place where that beginning is lived makes the difference in photos, in feelings, and in the way it connects with the rest of the day.

The Altar 

The altar, completely white, was decorated with flowers and foliage that added texture, color, and movement. The composition, with varying heights and irregular shapes, elevated the design without breaking the harmony. A proposal that spoke of subtle elegance, without excess.

 

In front of that setting, Mae and Pablo read vows to each other that went beyond the conventional. Instead of material wealth, they promised each other an intense life, rich in experiences, and acknowledged the invincible team they form together. It was an intimate and deeply emotional moment, where every word resonated strongly among their families and friends.

Sunset, photos, live music, and a photocall that stole all the attention

While the guests began to enjoy the sunset at La Divina Pastora, Mae and Pablo used that time for their photo session. Shortly after, they joined everyone, who were already singing along with Son Latino, a traditional Cuban music group that turned the cocktail into a small concert.

Tapas, cocktails, and a relaxed atmosphere defined that moment.

 

The great visual highlight was the photocall: a floral frame that opened to the city as if it were a postcard. Designed with as much detail as an altar, it became the perfect setting for the most sought-after photos: group shots, spontaneous moments, and the funniest ones, all framed by a piece that connected with the overall aesthetic of the wedding.

The dinner on the terrace of La Divina Pastora

The terrace was decorated with light garlands and lanterns adorned with greenery, creating an atmosphere of simplicity and elegance. Tables with pristine white linens, green and white floral centerpieces, and meticulously designed stationery completed the silent luxury aesthetic that defined the entire wedding.

 

The menu, inspired by Cuban cuisine but with fusion touches, accompanied toasts and speeches typical of a wedding dinner. 

 

However, the truly memorable part of this scene was the entrance of the newlyweds: Mae and Pablo arrived dancing while the guests waved their napkins to the rhythm of the music. It was a true early party that set the tone for everything that would come afterward.

The energy of the party

Mae and Pablo opened the dance floor with a very special dance: a salsa by Leoni Torres, in a romantic version that marked the beginning of what would be an unforgettable night. The guests welcomed them with confetti, waving napkins, and applause, in an entrance that turned that first moment into a true celebration.

 

From that moment on, the dance floor never emptied. Every song was a reason to celebrate, with friends and family dancing non-stop until the hora loca, when the stilt walkers appeared to multiply the energy and ignite the atmosphere even more.

 

It was the perfect finale to a day that combined emotion, design, and tradition, and that ended with the certainty that Mae and Pablo’s celebration in Havana was as unique as they are.
