There are weddings remembered for their opulence, and weddings remembered for the details that mean something. The wedding of Ingrid Sanz in Madrid belongs to the second kind - with earrings borrowed from her mother, a Rolls-Royce outside the church and a cake that travels across two generations.

28-year-old Ingrid married the footballer Ilies Hassaine at the „San Jerónimo el Real" church in Madrid - the same church where her parents married back in 1997. That's no random choice; repeating the venue is a quiet way to tie one's own story to that of one's parents. Among the roughly 450 guests were former Real Madrid players and well-known faces from the Spanish entertainment scene.

The bridal look was classic, but considered: a guipure-lace gown with a voluminous veil and a three-metre-long train, a bouquet of white peonies, and aquamarine earrings borrowed from her mother's jewellery. It's those borrowed earrings that carry all the emotion - an object passing from one bride to another, from one wedding in the same church to the next, 29 years later.

There was no shortage of glamour - a Rolls-Royce „Phantom" brought the bride, the cake had seven tiers modelled on the one from her parents' 1997 wedding, and a singer performed spontaneously at the celebration. But the most honest moment came from words: „The ceremony went beautifully because our daughters were there. There were plenty of tears, especially from him." The wedding ended with a first dance to a classic soul song, and the couple are spending their honeymoon in Greece. Sometimes the priciest thing at a wedding isn't the cake, but the detail that carries a memory.
