Real Wedding: Zeynab El Helw + Mohamad Kanso In Barcelona, Spain

It could be easily called the wedding of the century. Zeynab El Helw and Mohamad Kanso tied the knot in Barcelona, Spain at the most spectacular location. Like a dream of two lovers finally united, this couple’s breathtaking wedding ceremony breathed truth into the phrase which claims that “true love is real”, because at every point in this wedding, it was. Just like a fairytale, a meant to be, a kismet or modern day Romeo and Juliet (without the terrible ending of course), Zeynab and Mohamad were born on the same day, the 24^th of April 1985, and when they met two years before in July of 2015 in La Cantine du Fauboug when they realized they had identical travel plans, was the beginning of a lifelong journey. This sealed their fate; they were always meant to be. The day he proposed on one knee in the Amalfi Coast and she said yes, confirmed it. It was true love.

First Look Wedding Photos

Zeynab looked like every girl’s dream, Mohamad couldn’t have been more handsome; and the smile he wore throughout that day at the thought of his bride made him even more so. The bride was a picture of peace, of serenity and of happiness. It was easy to tell that this was, right there and then, the greatest moment of her life.

The green hills in the distance, the white tents and breathtaking grounds of the Castell de Sant Marçal of Barcelona in all its glory; the buildings of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, the picturesque moat with the walkway over it, and the gardens, made for a perfect backdrop in this real life classic movie which was about to earn its debut.

Wedding Ceremony

Like a boxer with his entourage, Mohamad’s entrance was to the boxing movie soundtrack of Rocky Balboa, his friends with him, celebrating with him and leading him on with an MC announcing his entry. Minutes later the groom put aside his silk robe feeling triumphant as he should, as he patiently waited for his bride.

The music changed and became softer as Zeynab began to walk down the aisle. It was a very passionate moment for every guest present but even more for the groom, he couldn’t stop smiling and yelling; she was so beautiful. When she got to him finally he held her in a hug so tight like he would never let her go.

During the photo shoot the love of this couple for each other was transparent. Seemingly unaware of the vast beauty around them; the castle, their wonderful guests; they only had eyes for one another. Picture after picture their love shone through. Such a beautiful event to be a part of could only happen once in a lifetime.

Everyone could see it, the photographs told a story, in the way he held her, kissed her hand, spoke to her. Their dreams had come true and no one could deny their joy. Zeynab and Mohamad for ever and ever. Even time would not tear them apart.

The reception venue had it all. The signs to direct you and tell you their love story, the beautiful flowers and well decorated seating and not to forget the handy mixologist at the bar.
