A century ago someone could start to write a story in this way:
A marchioness Doña Pilar Guillamas and her loved one, Don José Beneyto Rostoll are building a house to make their getaways. From this recreational Finca, they can look at the sea, and the mountains, breathe the smell of the pine trees and feel the Mediterranean wind, up there on that hill. Tossal de Molar is the place they chose. The marchioness can observe the town or Altea from her viewpoint or walk in the garden of the Angel. There is one thing they don't know - that it will be a venue for beautiful weddings one hundred years later. Neither they know that one Hiver will play piano for a wedding ceremony and start her post in this way...
Let's switch back to now. Or yesterday, if we want to respect the time when these photos were taken. I arrived a bit earlier at this venue, where I played in a wedding ceremony, to be sure I found the place and prepared for the event. The sun was bright, but the wind was blowing quite a bit - which was refreshing. If you want to see and hear how the wind blew, I recommend watching the video I prepared. You might also find a little surprise, that is, some piano music.
In my video, I also made a short story about how I had to find the "Mirador". I was there for the first time so for me it was a time of exploration. Which I loved in some way. We should just follow the paths and the signs, and a few people that were slowly arriving.
The Finca has various levels, but the ceremony has been celebrated on the upper one, from where the views are lovely. We can see the town of Altea, the bay, the sea, the mountain, the pine forests...
I knew I would play outside but I didn't know that the sun would be so strong. And that it would be so windy. My hair went crazy.
I placed the piano close to a tree, to have a bit of a shade. There was a sound technician who was in charge of the volume and quality of the sound. He connected the piano to the mixing board and speakers and we did a test. He was a kind guy. Later I saw him holding ice on his forehead - he had a migraine and was not so happy about that. Luckily, I had some painkillers that I offered him, he accepted and in about half an hour he got better!
Here came the exploration time before the guests arrived.

This is the list of a few songs that I played. They had just two requested songs (River Flows in You by Yiruma and She's The One by Robbie Williams) and the rest was my choice.
When the ceremony finished - the couple got married and they all went down to have a cocktail, I packed the piano and my stuff and didn't resist taking a look inside the house. It looks like a little castle.
Guardian or a pet?

The hall:
Run up to the tower to save a princess?
The patio:
The dinner would be celebrated here, in front of the building. How nice place to have your wedding... So, you know. If you decide to get married and celebrate your wedding ceremony in Spain, in Altea, this Finca is the right place to do it. Don't forget to call me to play the piano. :D

I love the music choice, especially the first piece of music 🎶.
I may consider getting a divorce so you can get married again, do you do discounts for second marriages ... 🤔
What a good idea - the divorcing and getting married again thing 😂. A discount for you is granted in that case 🎶😇
Of course, if I were to renew my vows I would like that place and you at the piano. It would be perfect. Beautiful place.🥰
Sería un honor tocar para ustedes, @mamani 🏰🎶✨
🥰❤️❤️❤️
I will get married in Altea just to have you music too jajjj
Just because of the music 🎶? Fair enough jajaja
What a beautiful place you've been to and shown us! LOVE 🥰 it!
The vid. So much 😆 and 😍 Next time, more piano sounds Lady Piano! Please? 🙇♂️ Orrrrr more footage? Even more Funny stuff? Don't mind me... Great vid altogether 🥰 and glad you could help out the sound guy. What would be a piano without sound? 🎶
I do hope you laughed, as it was the goal, to make it funny 😆
Footage of piano playing- that's all that I have. But you are right, what I should do is to have more recordings, ie go prepared (having a tripod and place the phone and record the whole thing, as I rarely have the recordings of the events when I perform and I don't want to bother others to do that task...) However, with this wind, it would be difficult anyway 😅. Did you see that my hair was covering my eyes in some moments? 😂
Yeah, lots and lots of wind, we could hear that in the vid.
But again, what a great location that was! pffff NICE!
Dont bother too much with all the tripods and such, just get those who wed to hold the camera for an hour or so {LOL}
Oh, and you are the volunteer to do it 😍
😂😂😂
Sure! I will!
Need a place to stay, have a roof, some food and all that.
Owww, I can then also play the chauffeur. Nah, you chauffeur so I can play the tourist, have hands and eyes free to look around, absorb what is gliding by, enough Spain, while travelling 🎶🙃
Roof & food - granted. If you don't mind a not perfectly clean home, I know one where you will be very welcome 😋
Yeah, the chauffeur thing is also solved - but the route is between lessons, rehearsals, home, lessons again, more rehearsals, gigs and concerts 😂 I can change the route sometimes though :)
🤣 I loved the video!! I wouldn’t like to celebrate my wedding under that hard sunlight, I’m glad you found a nice shadow to save your skin.
Ok, you convinced me… if I get marry again I will call you in order to play our soundtrack with your piano. ☺️
Pd- I hope the last song is not literal… 😂
I hope you laughed, well I think you did hahaha
It would be an honour for me to play your and your loved one's soundtrack, @palomap3 😇
😂
Believe me - I feel pity for the boys every time I play this song hahaha, like do they feel now like beasts? 😂 The girls - they all love this song! Whenever I play it I hear hummings of the tune around me 😁
Wowww what a beautiful and fantastic place like princesses, I love it!!!! Of course the loen is the mascot, I love felines... ahh you knew that I think.
Beautiful song and the gazebo is a luxury!😍
The lion - could be that he came to celebrate Caturday 😁
A big cat hehehe
I think that is the idea, the brides can feel like in a tale, like a princess on the day they have their wedding. 💫
I would have a pet lion... in fact I do! It's Tony a mini lion!
Woww I can just imagine myself there... a queen walking in those places.😍
A charming place, shown to us through this excellent post, well structured and with photos like for a magazine!!!... Thank you for sharing @mipiano friend!... Have a great Sunday!

I still have a bit of Saturday, but in an hour it will be indeed Sunday. Happy day/evening to you too 😇
What a beautiful place and those stories of yours always so well told.
No sé por qué no puedes ver mis vídeos 🤐 quizás la conexión...? Nunca has podido ver ningún vídeo de mis posts? :/
Bueno, si quieres te lo cuento jajajaja?
El sitio, volvería a trabajar allí cada día, si se podría 😂
Son todos los videos de Hive, mi conexión es pésima!!! A veces con mucha suerte puedo escucharlos jiji y algunos pequeños he logrado reproducirlos en la madrugada.
Buena idea!! 🤣
Pero no es una gran cosa y no queda divertido si lo cuento jajaja. Bueno, combino unas de las fotos del post con mensajes cortos y también toco un poco el piano, unos segundos diciendo que eso es todo. Luego digo que es broma y que tocaré 14 segundos más 😂 y así toco ese trocito más 🤣 y el pelo me tapa los ojos mientras toco.
nada, una tontería jajaja pero me he divertido
Lovely!!!!
Lovely location, lovely weather, lovely playing!!!!
It does indeed look like a castle 😂😂😂
Thank you. Castle for princess brides :D
