Cecilia is Italian and Dylan is American, and they wanted a wedding that honoured their Jewish heritage in a Mediterranean setting. Bliss Ibiza joined the planning a year out. In June 2025 the couple married at Finca Lush, a private estate with sea views and old gardens that Bliss offers exclusively, for only four weddings a year.
Under the chuppah
The ceremony started late, once the June heat had eased into a warm evening. Guests gathered between the trees, and the couple stood under a chuppah dressed in flowers that matched the garden. A liberal rabbi, flown in for the day, led the service. When the glass broke, all 140 guests shouted Mazel Tov.
Bliss added a few small touches for the heat. Each woman was handed a personalised fan on arrival and each man got a hat. Cecilia wore a vintage gown with a cape and Dylan a linen suit. Their dog, Dino, came to the wedding and was a big hit with the guests.
An Italian feast and a show for dessert
A traditional Ibicenco flute player welcomed the newlyweds, and a Spanish guitarist played through an aperitif that ran for two easy hours. The catering was Italian, as it had to be with an Italian bride. Food stations and a bar were spread through the corners of the house, and dinner was a long candlelit table in the back garden, surrounded by flowers in full June bloom.
The Italian chefs opened the dancefloor with a show: a huge pavlova finished at the table with red fruits and a dusting of sugar. Then close to 140 sparklers were lit all at once. The finca has few neighbours and a generous curfew, so the DJ kept going until late.
