“Within the first five minutes, I knew,” shares Isabelle Harvey as she recalls her first date with her now husband, Martyn Harvey. The couple met 11 years ago at a festival thanks to Isabelle’s cousin. “The following day, he made it his mission to take me out. After six months of asking, I eventually caved,” says Isabelle. “After a boozy date, we spent the entire weekend together and every other weekend since!”
Isabelle is a stylist and vintage dealer. She owns her own vintage business, Fauntleroy, and her expertise in both worlds was reflected in every aspect of the wedding. “I felt the only way to approach wedding plans was collaboratively and sustainably, as though it were an extension of my work. The vibe of my brand Fauntleroy, a curated vintage showroom in Barcelona, is present in every aspect of the wedding,” explains Isabelle. “It was important that my philosophy revolving around thrifting, sourcing unique details, and investing in local small businesses to reduce unnecessary waste and be mindful of cost was core to the entire wedding. I chose the expertise of set designers rather than conventional wedding planners [for] our Montseny wedding under the sun.”
The wedding took place at a 13th-century monastery in Montseny, Spain, a location that hits close to home for the couple, as they both reside in Barcelona and later recall that having the event in Catalonia was a “nonnegotiable.” They incorporated their traditional Spanish roots into their ceremony, their love of vintage into their ensembles, and their attention to detail into every part of their special day.
