    claire and alan

     

    The lovely Claire & Alan Wildman, took their Wedding vows on Saturday 16th June 2012.

    The bride looked amazing, carrying a lovely hand tied bouquet in lemon, yellows and shades of pink, and she carried in her hair fresh flowers to match which looked stunning.

    Her gorgeous brides maids wore lovely knee length raspberry coloured cocktail dresses, and they also looked beautiful.

    Claire has been a perfection with details, and endless emailing over the last year, ensured that the wedding team, had everything in place for the happy couple.

    The service was special and moving, however the bride shed a few tears before she walked up the aisle, wedding nerves!! got the better of her.

    The sun shone and it was a hot day, but the guests cooled down after the church service under the canopy of the trees, where they toasted the happy couple with cava and nibbled on delicious canapés.

    The dining room was decked out in lemons,yellows and summery pink shades of seasonal blooms,  and it  looked stunning.  Likewise the wedding cup cake tower look a treat also,

    The guests partied until late when carriages came to collect them all at 2.00am.

    We thank you very much Claire and Alan for your kind words of thanks in the card that you sent the wedding team.

    You have been a wonderful couple, and we have enjoyed organizing your wedding.

    We wish you both a very happy life, and please come back to see us all again

    Much love

    Dawne, Andrew, Bob, Sandra, Carol, Paco, Carlos, Andres, Eric, Pepi, and all of the wedding squad.

     


     

     

    We’d both like to say a “Big Thank you” for everything you and the Rebate team did, to make our wedding the most special day possibly.

    Alan and I had the most amazing day, prefect in every way. The bouquet’s, buttonholes and flower decorations where gorgeous. My hair piece was absolutely beautiful. We wouldn’t have changed a thing.

    All our guest’s commented how wonderful and picturesque the venue was and what a wonderful, fun time they all had. Everyone was well and truly feed & the wine kept flowing.

    Sorry for bursting into tears when I first arrived, all my emotions just came rolling out. I hadn’t seen Alan since 7pm the night before and I was just over whelmed with happiness and excitement.

    Alan was very happy he got to ring the church bells, I would say it made his day, but he assures me that getting married made his year.

    Once again thank you to the entire Rebate team for making our day, everything we had imagined and much, much more….

    Love Claire & Alan (Mr & Mrs Wildman)  xxxx

    Diane and Phil

     

    We believe this is the most romantic tale of all of our couples at Rebate

    Diane & Philip Cutts, took their wedding vows at 5.00pm on Friday 15th June 2012.

    They met as teenagers, and were madly in love, Phil being 18 years old and Dianne 17 years old.

    Phil signed up for the army and was posted in Malaysia for two years.  There was a very interfering member of the family that split the couple up, and of course there were no mobile phone, emails or texting.   So the relationship fizzle out.

    Diane, then left for Australia with her family and parents and settled there and married and had a family.

    Likewise Phil came back from the army and met someone else and married and had a family.

    They later both became single again

    3 years ago Diane was on the Friends Re-untied website, and whose name should pop up in conversation, but her old flame and first love Philip.

    So eventually through friends they got hooked up and have been emailing and Skyping each other.

    Phil proposed to lovely Diane over the internet and without hesitation she accepted.

    Diane flew into Spain 5 days before the wedding ceremony where she was eventually reunited with her first love and the love of her life Philip after 45 years.

    Now is that the best true love story you have ever heard!! Bless them both, and the lovely couple whose love never died got married in our Rebate church.

    Congratulations to this smashing couple we hope your future is full of fun and happiness, Your love for each other was so obvious on your special day here at Rebate

    Much love from all of the wedding team Dawne, Andrew, Sandra, Bob Paco, Carlos, Eric, Andres and all of the gang

    Debbie and Mark

     

    4.00pm on Monday 4th June 2012 is when Mark Gray & Debbie Brown had their wedding service.  This happy fun couple had the most amazing wedding.

    The fantastic soloist Maira O´Hara sang “Ava Marie” during the service and there was not a dry eye in the chapel.

    Debbie opted for all ivory and white flowers and the church looked stunning.

    Mark and his two boys who were the ushers looked extremely smart in dark grey suits.

    And Debbie looked gorgeous in a beautiful beaded cream wedding gown.  Her bride maids were in long champagne coloured dresses

    The whole wedding was very special and glamorous .

    The church bells tolled and as the guests and the bridal left the church, the ever popular Mariachi band walked up the steps to the church to serenade the wedding party, in the lovely Spanish sunshine.

    Canapés with cava, were served to the guests under the trees, and then the bridal party was led to the top dining room to commence their wedding meal.

    At the end of the meal the guests were treated to a flamenco show, by a local dance troop, with audience participation!!!

    Then the fun and games began out on the terrace, Debbie and Mark purchased flip flops for those guests who had sore feet through wearing new shoes, the wedding team set the flip flops into a heart on the dance floor.

    Debbie and Mark, we have loved working with you, at Rebate, we hope that we made your dreams come true.

    Again another fabulous fun couple, who were so easy to work with.  Thanks for choosing Rebate as your wedding venue.

    We would all like to send our love to your both, and please come and see us again, and most important, come to see those photos on the wall of your wedding outside the wedding office.

    Love to you both you lovely darlings!!

    Dawne, Bob, Sandra, Paco, Carol, Pepi, Carlos, Andres, Andrew, Eddie, Jorge, and each and ever member of the Rebate wedding squad.

    Amore and Keith

    Saturday 2nd June at 4.00pm was the time of the wedding for the beautiful and very sweet Amore May and her boyfriend Keith Wallaker.

    The theme was vintage lace, with soft blue,  pink  & white peonies.

    We see so many brides at Rebate and each and everyone look beautiful, but we must say Amore took our breath away as she stepped out of the wedding car.

    She looked stunning, she wore an amazing cream dress and a very vintage styled “Grace Kelly” veil, and the photos show how gorgeous she looked.

    Absolutely awesome.

    Her two bridesmaids carry peonies in their bouquets.  Keith the groom wore a light grey suit and looked very handsome.

    The wedding ceremony was conducted by our local priest Rev Eddie, and the service was very special.

    The bells tolled at 4.45pm as the couple left the church into the sunshine of a glorious June afternoon.

    The couple opted for a traditional gypsy guitarist who serenaded the guests as they  drank cava and ate canapés.

    The bridal party dined on a sumptuous wedding meal in our top dining room.

    They all moved outside later to dance, coaches and carriages came to collect the party well into the early hours.

    Amore & Keith, you have been fabulous to work with, a very easy going couple, nothing ever fazed you, you were always relaxed and happy.

    We know by your comments that  2nd June 2012 was the best day of your life, it truly was an amazing and special day for you, and we have loved working with you.

    All of the wedding team want to wish you good luck, much love and happiness  for you future.  You make sure you come and see us all again at Rebate.

    Much love from the wedding team, Dawne, Sandra, Bob, Andrew, Paco, Andres, Eric, Nicole, Pepi and Carlos and of course all of the waiting staff at Rebate
