LIONEL MESSI’S WEDDING: what would the football star's ceremony it be like
The pair already have two sons; four-year-old
Thiago and one-year-old Mateo.
Thiago and
Mateo’s parents are now taking the big step into marital bliss and it is
expected to be one of Latin America’s biggest weddings in recent times.
First, the venue comes complete with a
five-star hotel where guests are expected to be lodged. It also has spa as well
as its own casino.
The 188-room
Pullman Hotel inside the complex charges from almost £100 a night for the most
affordable room.
And once there’s a venue, what’s an owambe
without food?
Messi has reportedly asked chefs to cook local
delicacies such as ‘locro’ stew and ’empanada’ pasties for the feast.
Okay, we may
not be familiar with all that, but there’s the star dish which is a typical
Argentine beef roast including chitterlings, gizzards and kidneys.
Next is the guests. A number of former and
current Barcelona players have arrived for the wedding.
They include former captain, Xavi.
Chelsea
midfielder, Cesc Fabregas arrived with Barcelona players Sergio Busquets and Jordi
Alba.
Fabregas
started out in the Barcelona academy along with Messi and had a second stint at
the Nou Camp with the senior team
Barca
legend, Carles Puyol and former striker, Samuel Eto’o are among the party in
Argentina for the wedding
Also expected
is Barca defender, Gerard Pique and his music star partner, Shakira.
It remains
to be seen if Shakira would perform at the wedding however.
One person billed to perform, though, is
Sergio Aguero‘s wife, Karina; so Aguero will be attending the wedding too.
Evidently,
the football star has spared no expense to make the day most memorable for him
and Antonella.
They’ve
known each other for over two decades
Messi and
Antonella, who’s also a Rosario native like Messi, have known each other since
he was five years old, but only started dating in 2008.
