Did his friend marry a Spanish woman? Labriola sounds Spanish, no?

She is a German Woman but with Italian family.

From La vanguardia (spanish paper).

This is my first post, I like very much this forum and I read along time yet, but I don't participe because my english is very bad. I hope you understand me.
Letizia looks radiant and Leonor is so cute.
Thanks for the photos.
 
Welcome on board, Princess Letizia! :D

I agree it's a precious dress and very appropriate for the event... very elegant but down-to-earth at the same time. The embroidered band around the waist remembers me a light blue dress Princess Victoria of Sweeden wore at the Nobel ceremony, a couple of years ago.

I give her an A! ;)

Really a nice family. They always seems to enjoy being with friends. It is very special that they decide to take the little Leonor to the wedding. They always try to do like normal people. The Princess seems to me very healthy and the Prince seems to be so proud of his wife and daughter. Precious moment for us to see.
 
I really loved Letizia's dress.....it was a pretty color. And I agree with whomever said that she needs to wear her hair in curls more often. It makes her face look a little softer.
 
Letizia looks wonderful! The dress is just beautiful...I never realized that Letizia was that full in the top...is this a dress with a padded top?
 
Princess Letizia looks stunning.She is laterally glowing and she looks very healthy.Can tell that Prince Felipe is still so in love with her.
 
leonor is a very beautiful baby! in short time she will be one year old!

The Princes, in the penultimate row

The pilot of the small aircraft, in which different classes do not finish off there are not even separated compartments, in his greeting on having taken off it exonerated itself with inconvenience, conscientiousness and many details for the delay imposed on the clients. The reason of the delay was the arrival late of the plane in a previous route.
The brief flight Ibiza - palm, of only half an hour in normal conditions, had the exit foreseen to the 13.10 and it did it to the 15.10. The passage, according to statement of two witnesses, suffered neither inconveniences nor special records for the presence of Felipe and Letizia on board. When a van landed in Palm gathered the Princes, who were going with four persons of company, and loaded bulky baggage, of wedding and infantile assistance. Their trip was deprived, in class tourist and late.
