NORMALLY WEDDINGS ARE HAPPY EVENTS, IN WHICH WE ARE GLAD FOR THE BRIDES WHO HAVE DECIDED TO START A UNITED JOURNEY. BUT THIS WEDDING BETWEEN ISABEL DE SEGURA AND PEDRO DE AZAGRA LEAVE US A BITTER SWEET TASTE. IS THE BRIDE REALLY IN LOVE?
WEDDING OF ISABEL DE SEGURA WITH PEDRO DE AZAGRA
On March 24 until the 27th, the wedding of Isabel de Segura and Pedro de Azagra will take place in Teruel. She is a native of the city, the daughter of an important merchant and he is the Lord of Albarracín. The wedding is expected to be splendid, a great party, with dances, a nuptial bull, markets and taverns. Not surprisingly, the groom has been waiting a long time since Elizabeth refused to marry before she was a whopping 20 years old, a somewhat advanced age for marriage in our 13th century. If you are going to attend, don’t worry, the bride and groom are cheerful, come well dressed, clean and eager to entertain them and have a good time.
Where will the weddings take place?
In the center of Teruel, the entire capital is invited to the party.

THE BRIDE LOOKS SAD
Isabel in the last days is absent, sad. We do not know if it is because of leaving her father’s house and embarking on a new path in the beautiful Albarracín or because of something else. Gossips say that she was in love with a handsome young man: Diego de Marcilla. But of course, the Marcilla family has fallen into disrepair and the father opposed the courtship. Diego went to war in search of his fortune and gave Isabel five years to return. The bride, not having a single sign of Diego, finally gave in to her father’s claims to find her husband.
Is the boyfriend handsome?
The Lord of Albarracín is more handsome for Isabel’s father than for her. He has an interesting fortune that added to hers will make them people with a lot of power. The bride and groom take a few years but education and respect make them a good couple.

WEDDING IN THE CATHEDRAL
Teruel Cathedral will witness the union. The temple, a marvel created by our master builders from Teruel, is part of the new Mudejar trend. Its newly released Mudejar ceiling full of light and color is a masterpiece. This will be the place chosen by the bride and groom for such a lofty event. It will be attended by the families of the bride and groom as well as the Bishop of Teruel and other authorities. The creme de la creme will meet in our city during that weekend.
Celebrations?
Throughout the city, the friends of the bride and groom have arranged a series of tents to celebrate the wedding. In addition, the bride and groom will release several nuptial bulls that will tour the Plaza del Torico and Calle de San Juan. Innkeepers and merchants from all over the kingdom begin to arrive in Teruel to give more importance to this wedding.
