That was a dreamy beach elopement followed by the romantic picnic and dancing under the Cretan sky full of stars.
Styling and flowers including succulents and eucalyptus perfectly matched Karen’s flawless bohemian wedding dress.
Soft light of Cretan summer and couple’s intimate relation contributed to amazing wedding atmosphere, just for two!
Beautiful Lottie at her bridal preparation!
Never miss the moment, embrace your beauty and celebrate your GLOW✨✨✨

In one of my beloved Cretan regions, under the huge oak tree, one of my beloved couples decided to have a Greek Orthodox ceremony to always and forever cherish their values and stand for their family unconditional love!
It was a hot day, let me tell you!
We listened to cicadas, broke all the wooden fans😁, threw lots of rice and drank all cherry and lemon fusion water!
Day to remember forever 🩷🧿🇬🇷
Να ζήσετε H&P❤️

Intimate mid summer blessing in the private chapel of Saint Nicolas @markakisestate for Barbara and Peter!
Can you plan it within a week? Yes, we can!
Sometimes things happen for a reason and when the couple’s initial plans had to take different direction, we were thrilled to make their dream come true in the land of their ancestors.
Greece has such a spiritual meaning for many Greeks leaving abroad and it is heartfelt to see new generations and their parents cherishing traditions and history!
Να ζήσετε!
