What sort of couple do you think you attract?
We attract all types of people, we have intimate areas for small gatherings, beautiful gardens for an outdoor event and we have a big banquet hall that can sit up to 400 people.

What would be your ideal wedding to work on?
The ideal wedding is the ones who are open to get married on a Friday. People would arrive to the estate on Wednesday night and we would serve a light tapas meal and have a wine tasting of local wines. The next morning would start with some yoga and then continue with our big breakfast buffet. The guests can enjoy a guided tour of Toledo or go and play golf in the nearby golf courses. The bride and groom will be able to hold a rehearsal in late afternoon with its following dinner.
The wedding day will start with yoga or Pilates and then continue with a big breakfast buffet. The bride will be in our Beauty Center getting ready with her closest family and/or friends. Once the bride is ready she will be escorted to the ceremony and the couple will celebrate a beautiful ceremony filled with flowers and lights in an intimate garden.
The wedding party will then have a cocktail hour in our fountain area and then move to el Mirador where they will enjoy a dinner overlooking the beautiful city of Toledo.
