The celebrations of the great wedding, of the red carpet wedding that Amancio Ortega has organized for his daughter Marta and his son-in-law Carlos Torretta, concluded on Saturday night with a gala dinner for 400 guests. The setting was the Casas Nova equestrian club, a huge 71,000 square meter estate that allowed attendees to enjoy the intimacy sought by the bride and groom. For the occasion, a gala suit was required for them and a tuxedo for them. But on stage there were artists whose concerts were more casual: Chris Martin, Norah Jones and DJ Mark Ronson, a great friend of the Inditex heiress. Only a millionaire family can hire singers of this great international stature.

Marta Ortega wore a new exclusive Valentino design for the occasion, which has created the three looks that she has worn on the days of her wedding with Carlos Torretta. Pierpaolo Piccioli, creative director of the brand, has spent these hours very close to the bride, supervising all the pieces. The first, the pale pink wedding dress, the second a black dress with large transparencies and on Saturday night a metallic one. This time the Inditex heiress did not wear anything from Zara as is usual for her.

The party was set recreating the nature of Galicia and a forest was staged for them. All the decoration of the wedding and the floral arrangements have been very important in this wedding in which even the smallest details have been taken care of, all of it the work of Thierry Boutemy. An example, both at the Club Náutico dinner on Friday night in A Coruña, and on Saturday at the equestrian, a large room was set up where an army of hairdressers and make-up artists were available at all times to retouch the guests.

The dinner was in charge of the chef Albert Adrià and the confectionery was the work of the French Cédric Grolet.

At the gala dinner it was more difficult to capture the guests who arrived at Casas Novas in chauffeur-driven cars arranged by the bride and groom. The equestrian center was built by Amancio Ortega in Larín (Arteixo), about 20 kilometers from his house and five from his company's headquarters, when Marta actively competed in that sport. The owner of Inditex saved himself the headaches of convincing hundreds of owners to gather 71,000 square meters by buying the land of what had been a dairy farm. It was inaugurated in 2000, with magnificent facilities clad in stone and wood. That same year he organized his first international jumping competition, which has the highest score of the International Equestrian Federation. There was the first place where Amancio Ortega did not shy away from the photographers, who photographed him with his family and his guests.

Amancio Ortega, the owner of Inditex and the fifth richest man in the world, according to Forbes magazine with some 56,000 million euros, was walking around his house in A Coruña like every day, hours before the gala dinner . There he was approached by a Mediaset cameraman and, making an exception to his usual discretion, he claimed to be "happy" with how everything was turning out.

The guests, after a long night of partying, will return to their destinations that Sunday, some on the private planes in which they arrived at A Coruña airport. The bride and groom will begin their honeymoon trip. But when she returns, Marta Ortega will settle down again at her factory table to resume her work and Carlos Torretta at his model agency. But the couple also has plans to do something together in the professional field. In the personal, continue to create a family to which Amancio, the 5-year-old son, that Marta had with her first husband, the jockey Sergio Álvarez, joins.

There have been royal and aristocratic weddings this year but few have had the exclusivity and discretion of this one, corresponding to other princes, those of Inditex.
