July still brings weddings, and one of them had it all - precisely because it didn't have too much. Former Spanish MP Lilith Verstrynge, once also a state secretary, married Rodrigo Amírola, a former government adviser, at 33 in a quiet ceremony at an estate in the La Rioja wine region. No glitz, no spectacle - just family and friends.

The bride arrived in a legendary Citroën DS, the cult model from the fifties, seated beside her father, the political scientist Jorge Verstrynge, who gave her away. And then the best-kept secret of any wedding was revealed - the dress.

Minimalist. That's the word that best describes Lilith's choice. A dress with a boat-style neckline that visually lengthens the shoulders and narrows the silhouette, gently fitted to the upper hips, from where a skirt with a slightly modified A-line descends. What the bride gave up was the veil. When a ceremony has a relaxed protocol - the man who gave her away, for instance, wore not a suit but a blazer with lighter trousers - that element isn't necessary. Instead, she wore her hair down, wavy, with a few strands gathered on the left side.

Her bouquet was especially lovely. In a world where trends swing from minimalist bouquets to XXL cascading arrangements, Lilith chose a third path - a design dominated by greenery, with a wildflower look. A small white-and-green bouquet that fit perfectly with the simplicity of the dress. Sometimes the boldest choice is precisely the one that refuses to compete - a bride who knows that less, well chosen, says more than anything bought in a hurry.
