Less than a month remains before one of the most anticipated social events of the year in Spain. All eyes of the aristocracy and the press are on Seville, where on October 4, Cayetano Martínez de Irujo and Bárbara Mirjan will be married. Preparations for this grand celebration are entering the final stage, with the last details being refined with special care to make the day truly unforgettable not only for the couple but also for every guest.
The bride, Bárbara Mirjan, is spending these exciting weeks surrounded by her closest family. Her greatest support is her mother, Lourdes Allende, who accompanies her at every stage, including rehearsals for her bridal look. According to those close to them, after makeup trials, Bárbara looks absolutely radiant and glows from within. Many have noticed that she appears a bit slimmer, which often happens to brides due to excitement. However, in Bárbara’s case, it is not the result of dieting but rather joyful anticipation. She is completely at ease and is savoring every moment, experiencing it all without the slightest pressure.
The groom, Cayetano Martínez de Irujo, is also in excellent spirits. He recently underwent a scheduled back surgery, but it was a minor procedure. Just a few days later, he returned to his active lifestyle and sports, which demonstrates his good health. For Cayetano, choosing the ceremony venue is especially important. The wedding will take place at the Los Gitanos church in Seville, which was much loved by his mother, the unforgettable Duchess of Alba. The wedding banquet will be held on the estate “Las Arroyuelas”, the jewel of his inheritance from his mother.
The key roles in the ceremony are entrusted to those closest to the couple. Cayetano’s daughter, Amina, and Bárbara’s father will escort them. Her father is a private individual, a successful entrepreneur whose business is outside Spain, which requires him to travel frequently. He has always tried to stay out of the media spotlight.
The guest list is drawing special attention, particularly regarding the groom’s family. Several of Cayetano’s siblings are expected to attend the wedding. His sister, Eugenia Martínez de Irujo, has already confirmed her attendance and will likely be joined by her husband, Narcís Rebollo, and their daughter, Tana Rivera. His brother Fernando, who has fully recovered from health issues, will also be present. The main intrigue centers on whether the Duke of Alba will attend. Relations between the brothers have been complicated, but recently they have managed to resolve their differences and now maintain a respectful and warm relationship.
