The town of Pylos in Greece, is a naturally gorgeous location for a destination wedding and Mia and Nickos day was indeed just like a fairytale. The couple celebrated their love with an intimate ceremony in a gorgeous olive grove overlooking the sea. Between the stylish couple, the beautiful decoration with dusty blue florals, the enchanting melody by One Cello N a Half and the tasteful dining experience by 2CHEFS Gastronomy Catering, this wedding in Greece is one worth remembering!

«We met at a BBQ restaurant in Memphis TN, we were both living in the state for work and had a mutual friend visiting who invited us out for dinner. After 3 years of dating, we moved to NYC with our pets. On a February morning, Nickos took Mia for a stroll at Central Park and proposed at the iconic Gapstow Bridge. », the bride shared with us.

«For our wedding we wanted to incorporate soft blues – this can be seen in our draped arch and the bridal bouquet. We love hydrangeas, delphiniums, and roses! We were hoping for an elegant, romantic, and intimate setting for our ceremony and reception as our group was very small. Elena, our wedding coordinator from Golden Leaf Events and florist, was able to capture that perfectly!»

We loved having the candlelit dinner with our close family underneath the olive trees, while the sound of ocean waves and peaceful violin/cello melody from One Cello N a Half played in the background. We enjoyed a delectable 6 course dinner from 2CHEFS Gastronomy Catering that consisted of elevated local cuisine and seaside ingredients. It was a dream come true!

«Our favorite moment at our wedding was the first look. We chose to have separate vows that were reserved specifically for our first look, we were unplugged and were able to share a special and private moment together. For us, it was all about coming together as husband and wife and committing to each other for the rest of our lives – the first look was our first step towards a new life together. It was a moment of magic and calmness in the midst of all the wedding festivities and it helped ground us. »

We could hardly take our eyes off Stephanie and Nicolas’ wedding in Montreal for so many reasons! For one the couple chose an elegant black and white theme with gorgeous baby’s breath flowers that gave a romantic vibe and secondly the couple had an amazing party. «We knew we wanted the most important tribute to our wedding to be the memory of a great party. For this reason, we decided to make the dance floor our focal point with a black and white checkered floor, in tune with our black and white overall theme… » said the bride and we just can’t wait for you to see all the details and beautiful moments captured by George Mavitzis!

«We met on a dating app called Hinge in November of 2021 and a year later got engaged! One weekday, after a long day at work, Nicolas was preparing dinner. He played to his clumsy self and pretended to drop a pile of food all over the floor. As I ran to see what a disaster was surely too clean, I found Nicolas on one knee proposing to spend the rest of our lives making these memories together. », the bride shared with us.

«Being a couple of simple tastes, we opted to decorate the venue in purely baby’s breath flowers.»

Stunning! That word perfectly describes Katie and John’s wedding in Spain, and we just can’t take our eyes off from the beautiful pictures captured by Victor Alaez Photography! The bride brings her vision into life with this indoor-outdoor experience at the gorgeous Anantara Villa Padierna in the south of Spain with pale pink, white and gold touches. The wedding reception was divine: an abundance of lush flowers from Perdo Navaro Floral Art & Event Styling, soft pale colors, and ultra stylish centerpieces at the tables enhanced the romantic vibe, while the chandeliers in the garden area created such a magical night!

«We met at the gym we both go to. Jon had a lovely proposal planned in Dubai but covid got in the way of that, so he had to think of plan b. Jon really caught me off guard and proposed in an escape room. », the bride shared with us.

«Everything was a fairytale all white, pale pink and gold. The bouquets were all white, but the rest of the florals had a touch of pink in too. I did go over the top on flowers because I love them. I even had them hanging from the ceiling at the reception. »

«I had two dresses, both Berta. My first ultimate fish tale dress made me feel like a princess with the Berta veil too. I need to put this dress on a mannequin in my house, it’s that pretty. My second dress i had the train and lining taken out so it was fun and sexy. I think the seamstress thought i was mad cutting up a Berta. Even my mum wore a wedding dress as my maid of honor. »

From Victor Alaez Photography:
«Katie and Jon’s magical day unfolded under a sky of blossoming trees, with a charming blush-toned castle setting the scene. The Spanish sunshine and towering, lush palm trees added a touch of natural glamour, enhancing the whimsical atmosphere. Twinkling fairy lights, elegant chandeliers, and delicate blossom decor transformed the space into a vibrant, stylish wonderland. Katie, with a smile, shared her choice of the venue, known for hosting celebrities like Obama and JLo, saying, “If it’s perfect for them, it’s perfect for us!” The venue, offering accommodation for the entire wedding party, turned their celebration into an enchanting Disney-like weekend, leaving everyone awestruck.»

«The couple’s decision to have a destination wedding was met with overwhelming love, as almost all their guests made the journey. Over a hundred beloved friends and family members joined them, creating a warm and festive atmosphere. The day was relaxed and joyful; Jon enjoyed a round of golf while Katie and her son Cassius indulged in poolside fun. The bride, with her eight bridesmaids, embarked on a leisurely preparation process, cherishing every moment.»

«Katie was the epitome of a fairytale princess in her exquisite wedding dress. Her gown, adorned with delicate floral details and a majestic train, was a vision of elegance and grace. A long-time admirer of Berta designs, Katie found her dream dresses at the local Knutsford Wedding Gallery. “My main dress was a stunning Berta Privee fishtail with a lengthy train and veil. The second was a daring, sheer Berta creation,” Katie recounts, with a hint of excitement about her bold customization. Her Sophia Webster shoes, with a hint of blue, and an Eden Luxe tiara, added the perfect royal touches to her look.»

Think romantic, relaxed, colorful and that is exactly what you will see at the beautiful wedding of Alena and Andre in Portugal! The lovely couple celebrated their love with their beloved ones in the beautiful venue of Quinta de Segade with the prettiest and bright flowers creating the most romantic ambiance you ever see! As the bride shared with us «Since it was a summer wedding in the venue with large green area, I wanted a colorful bouquet with mix of textures and seasonal flowers which Portugal has plenty to choose from… ». We simply can’t wait to share with you every detail, all captured so beautifully by Pedro Filipe Fotografia!

«Some names of the flowers in the bouquet were vuvuzela garden rose, ranunculus, chamomile, delphinium, snap dragons, clematis, matthiola. I also had a smaller additional bouquet to throw. The decoration of the venue was also colorful. Since the venue has a lot of flowers and trees by itself, it was already looking beautiful. The decoration of the tables was colorful again – Limonium plus greens like eucalyptus, etc. These flowers do very well in hot climates and even at the end of the party look fresh. The ceremony was in the church. This church was not very big in size and had a lot of light, we liked it a lot.»

Favorite part of the wedding was part of the games, where the groom and his friends needed to solve some tasks to get the bride back! It was a fun moment with music, laughs, dances!

alena, bride
colorful-bright-summer-wedding-portugal_12
colorful-bright-summer-wedding-portugal_13

The bride’s advice: «I recommend starting booking venue/ photographer / makeup much in advance! At least, in Portugal, wedding market is very hot! While checking options, I recommend using Excel to keep track of visits, contacts, etc., it helps not to keep track of everything. Also, it is a nice idea to set a qr code to ask the guests to upload pictures/videos they took during the wedding. This qr code can also be used by you, once pictures from photographer are ready and you want to share them with the guests. When it comes to pictures/videos, I recommend choosing both, it is a great memory to have a video that you can watch later on. »

colorful-bright-summer-wedding-portugal_14
colorful-bright-summer-wedding-portugal_15

Also, I recommend creating a wedding website with all the necessary information for the guests (timing, location, dress code, what to do in the city for guests traveling from other locations). It is also very convenient to keep track of RSVPs and food preferences with the help of the website.

Three beautiful days lasted the destination wedding of Clare and Ross in Italy, with their guests traveling from all over the world to celebrate their love, so we knew immediately we were in store for some beautiful scenery and heartfelt moments in these pictures captured by Gianluca & Mary Adovasio! The beautiful gardens of the noble residence Villa Le Fontanelle created the perfect canva for Bianco Bouquet to decorate the setting with the prettiest flowers and romantic details creating for Clare and Ross the dreamiest of days!

«We met while studying at USC in business class. The class focused on communication (public speaking, delivering bad news, teamwork, and remote projects). We quickly became best friends and have been together for 10 years now! Initially, Ross planned on proposing during our trip to Lake Como in May 2020 (hence why we chose Italy for our wedding location) – but that was cancelled due to the pandemic. Ross later proposed September 2020 as a day filled with surprises. We started our day at USC at our favorite bench where we used to spend time between classes. He had planned a little scavenger hunt/puzzle that mimicked The Amazing Race (one of our favorite shows to watch together). Afterwards, we had brunch at a restaurant close by. Then, we drove down south to a park in Newport Beach and that’s where Ross proposed! He had planned surprise photographer to capture the moment. To keep the celebration going – Ross chartered a private sailboat where we went out to see the sunset (for our very first date together, we had sailed on a little dinghy and saw dolphins). Overall, Ross’ proposal was incredibly thoughtful – he wanted to make sure each surprise was an ode to our relationship and special moments we’ve had together. », the bride shared with us.

«Flowers were one of our top priorities and we felt it helped set a certain mood throughout our whole wedding. We are fortunate enough to live near a flower market, so we were very precise in what type of flowers we utilized: roses, proteas, wax flowers, bells of Ireland, peonies, larkspur, sweet peas, allium, artichoke flowers, agapanthus, and Amaranthus, astilbes, scabiosa, and lilies of the valley.»

modern-garden-wedding-florence-italy-lush-florals_07
modern-garden-wedding-florence-italy-lush-florals_08

We specifically chose pastel color palettes with a focus on mauves, lavender, white, and pinks, while having pops of color with pale yellow and stronger shades of pink and purple. Our overall theme was a modern garden party – we wanted our ceremony to feel very organic and romantic. When I first walked down the aisle, the flowers were so beautiful it literally took my breath away. It was the most complimented piece by our guests!…

«While for our dinner we had modern touches on the table but cascading flowers hanging down the pergola… Modern touches were represented through our use of neon signs and disco party room for dancing! The dance room was incredible and the work our vendors did was beyond our dreams. All our guests danced nonstop, and we really felt the disco ball and covering the room in tinsel (floor to ceiling) set the mood. We also added in some unique touches like custom napkins (crests from our wedding invitation and a portrait of our dog, Otis). Overall, we let the flowers shine through and feel they adorned the venue nicely, while decorating our wedding! »

My favorite moment was spending time with all our loved ones. Given the nature of our international wedding, we were fortunate enough to have a 3-day wedding event (welcome dinner, rehearsal dinner, wedding day). We had guests who traveled across the world and some we hadn’t seen in 5+ years. The amount of time and events we had allowed us to have a more relaxed pace.

«A very close second favorite moment would be assembling our wedding cake after dinner in true Italian tradition! Ross’ favorite moment was the dance party! The vibes were on point and the DJ was great. Truly, Wedding Music & Lights did a phenomenal job. »

The brides advice: «Overall, a few key tips: Work with a planner/coordinator (if you’re able) – this helped guide us through the process and our wedding planner (Marta from Bianco Bouquet) was amazing! Set a budget and prioritize the most important things. Also, allow for some leeway as it’s likely you’ll go over budget. Get a videographer. This was a last-minute decision we made and I’m so glad we did. When doing research, I saw not getting a videographer was one of the biggest regrets from weddings! Ensure deliverables are met from your vendors…»

« We did a first look (which helped ease the nerves a lot) and set aside time for just us 2 right after the ceremony. We were able to really soak up the experience together and have some alone time before all the guests crowd you. Don’t invite someone out of obligation – only extend invites to those you would want there. Planning in advance is key (it’s really never too early). This helps you ensure you are securing your first choices, as well as understanding what’s going on! We took planning as a time to bond together and actually really enjoyed the whole process. With all that said, be sure to focus on yourselves. You are the ones getting married – not your family or friends. Do anticipate some people making foolish comments or assumptions (this is bound to happen). The day is about you and your love, so do what you want! Soak it all up! Despite weddings typically being stereotypically stressful, we genuinely feel our wedding day was stress free and we were both so present! »

«My beautiful wedding dress is called Chai from an Israeli designer, Netta BenShabu. I was lucky to customize the dress, and have it tailor made for myself. It was important to me to have tulle and an off the shoulder dress. I felt gorgeous and still have my dress to this day! »

Bianco Bouquet shared with us: «Clare and Ross envisioned more than just a wedding—they dreamt of a Renaissance escape, a haven where their families and closest friends could revel for days. Nestled in the exclusive embrace of a villa, their retreat was a mere stone’s throw from Florence, promising not just matrimonial bliss but a chance to explore the enchantment of the city. In a ceremony that wove traditions seamlessly, the couple paid homage to the groom’s heritage with touches of Jewish customs, serenaded by the delicate melodies of a harp. Picture this: an ambiance that transcends the ordinary, a “modern garden party” where vibrant blooms and lush foliage dance in harmony with nature, creating an immersive, organic wonderland. To this tapestry, we added contemporary flair—neon signs, acrylic decorations, and transparent whimsy—blending the timeless with the trendy.»

«The festivities unfurled with a cocktail hour on a terrace kissed by the setting sun behind the church, offering a panoramic view of Florence. As twilight turned to night, we migrated beneath a gazebo in front of the villa, transforming the space into a magical haven for the continuing celebration. An elegant tableau greeted guests: white tablecloths, Ginori underplates adorned with emerald green motifs, golden cutlery, and faceted glasses. Yet, as the night deepened, the atmosphere underwent a metamorphosis. Neon signs flickered to life, and silver tinsel adorned the Renaissance villa, turning it into a charismatic disco room. Tradition met modernity in a spectacular dance, creating an unforgettable experience that transcended the expected—a wedding that wasn’t just a union but a symphony of time, tradition, and boundless celebration.» Bianco Bouquet shared with us.

«Our story began nearly a decade before our wedding day. We met right out of college in my home state of California, and after a year of long distance, I relocated to join Sebastian in Europe. From our very first date on a Santa Cruz beach to the years that followed exploring Europe, watching sunsets became a staple of our life together. So, it was only natural that our engagement take place at sunset. The proposal was an intimate, private moment. No cameras; no bystanders; just us, Santorini, the Aegean, and the sun sinking into it. », the bride shared with us.

«We chose an array of colorful blooms to mirror a warm summer sunset. Roses were selected as the predominant flower, honoring the flower’s title as the symbol of love. These were enriched with hydrangeas, lysianthus, wisteria, buttercups, and other seasonal foliage.»

«For our ceremony, we opted for a swell of six potted floral arrangements so to frame the large space and not to obstruct the naturally beautiful backdrop. Our reception had the same sunset-toned floral arrangements. The sweetheart table was a vibrant masterpiece, covered in lavish blooms and accented with blue fabric drapery and tall, slender candles. We also hung white wisteria from the pergola by the dance floor to enhance the enchanted summer garden feel of the evening. »

We looked to various wedding blogs, including Chic and Stylish Weddings, for inspiration on overall theme, color palette, flower arrangements, and attire throughout our wedding planning process.

«Our first look was my favorite moment. We were both so excited to see each other and still also nervous about the ceremony and the events still to come. But during these few minutes we were able to focus only on each other, bask in the beauty of the moment, and just hold and laugh with one another. »

The bride’s advice: «I would have two pieces of advice: 1. Your wedding should be a reflection of you, your partner, and your unique love story. So be bold with your vision – celebrate your love the way you want to. If you find yourself entering the wedding planning process unsure of what you want, sit with that discomfort for a while and take the time to really reflect on who you and your partner are and what it is that you enjoy. If not on your own, then with some help from the many professional venders in the wedding business, you will eventually find the wedding vision of your dreams. And then turn that into a reality. 2. Come the day of your wedding, no matter the amount of planning, stress, etc. that you did leading up to the wedding – let it go.»

As a very involved and very detail oriented bride, the best thing I did for myself on my wedding day was to surrender to the day. What happened, happened – and I embraced it, smiled, and let it be. Did every detail of our wedding go according to plan? No, but the day in its entirety was still the most perfect it could have been.

«I wore a wedding gown from wtoo by Watters. It was light and airy with delicately embroidered details. I added a subtle slit in the blush underskirt and dreamy tulle wings, which completed my vision as an ethereal bride. »

What can we say about this gorgeous wedding of Skye and Chris in Kefalonia that we simply can’t take our eyes off? Mythos Weddings created such a lovely setting for their ceremony and reception with bright colors and breathtaking flowers from Bosonis Flowers. Their celebration location was overlooking the sea and as the bride shared with us «For both of us, the speeches were a highlight – sitting there on that veranda overlooking the Ionian Sea with the sun setting, surrounded by most of our favorite people, the candles flickering, and the warm sea breeze on our skin listening to our loved ones recounter old and new memories of our lives before and after – we were on the highest of highs.». We love every romantic look between the couple, and we are so happy that we can share every detail through these beautiful images from Vicky Bekiaridou Photography!

«We met at work and often were both the first people to arrive. Chris started dropping by my desk every morning to say hello and the next thing I knew he had asked me out for drinks and the rest is history. We went to stay at Burley Manor, a hotel I adore, in the New Forest for a long weekend and Chris popped the question during a sunset walk. », the bride shared with us.

Our wedding took place on the breathtaking island of Kefalonia in Greece and the location largely dictated the style and aesthetic. We wanted an elegant yet playful, simplistic, and timeless decoration that complimented the view.

fresco-summer-wedding-kefalonia-colorful-flowers_05

fresco-summer-wedding-kefalonia-colorful-flowers_07

«As you can see, you don’t need much in the form of decor to make an island wedding stunning. We opted for wild florals in hues of oranges and pinks that mimicked the colors of a Kefalonian sunset as our wedding took place in the late afternoon-evening. Instead of a traditional arch for our ceremony, we wanted something that was unique and effortless, so we had the florist embellish the track of a tree with our florals – we love the outcome! For table settings, we selected natural wooden chairs, sage green linen napkins, accents of gold from the cutlery to compliment the surrounding nature, and to compliment the florals. My favorite touch to the reception decor was the Dahlia charger plates – I think they were the perfect choice to add some texture & also compliment the florals. »

fresco-summer-wedding-kefalonia-colorful-flowers_08

«Don’t put so much pressure on yourself to have the perfect wedding day. I think there is an unrealistic expectation that one day can be so flawless, that nothing will go wrong. Too much emphasis is placed on having the perfect wedding. From the exterior, weddings often look perfect, but things can and do go wrong & sometimes this is out of your control. In reality, our wedding day was far from ‘perfect’, but there were perfect moments in between it all that we choose to focus on instead. My advice would be to focus on what’s truly important – your marriage, your commitment, and your relationship. »

«With our wedding being a summer wedding in Kefalonia I knew I needed something light and breathable so I could enjoy our day despite the heat. A Madi Lane dress was a no brainer for me and after seeing a picture of the Daisy dress, my mind was made up. Once I tried the dress on, I fell more in love with Daisy. My dress had a simple silhouette with a low back, nude underlay and covered in dainty floral lace with a long train. For the party, I changed into a short bejeweled and sparkly dress from Self-Portrait. »
