The place

Andalusia

Moorish palaces, white villages, olive groves to the horizon and two coasts — Spain’s warm, bright south.

October is one of the easiest months to marry here.

The light

How the light falls there

The southern sun is strong and high: midday light is hard and white, and bounces off every wall. The Atlantic coast faces west, so the sun sets into the ocean; in Granada the classic moment is the Alhambra turning red at sunset, seen from the hill opposite.
