Pastel-Inspired Spring Garden Elopement in Chania Danute and Eanna

Danute and Eanna opted for a private elopement in an undisclosed garden, preceded by a photoshoot in Chania Old Town with bridal preparations and couple’s first look.
Chania Old Town in Crete is famed for its Venetian harbor, narrow streets with colorful buildings, and diverse architecture. It features historic churches, museums and Mediterranean charm. It’s no surprise that Danute and Eanna chose to embrace and capture the essence of Chania’s magic in their photos, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
After their romantic photoshoot along the seaside, the time was fast approaching for them to officially become husband and wife at exotic gardens of Western Crete.
Danute and Eanna are true romantics. Their choice of florals and locations definitely proves that. Name it “Pastel Explosion” — a breathtaking display of pastel shades of blush pink, peach, cream, complemented by a lush green base of locally grown eucalyptus. It truly felt like stepping into a fairytale.
Beneath a round – shaped arch, they were pronounced husband and wife!
After enjoying an after-ceremony snack of local fruits and refreshing themselves with Cretan tsikoudia and Prosecco, they proceeded with a photoshoot amidst the spring blooming nature of the island. As they were capturing moments, Danute turned around to see a peacock displaying its shimmering, patterned feathers in the sunlight. The presence of this majestic creature seemed to symbolize the couple’s deep connection to nature and the inherent beauty that surrounded them.
Their romantic dinner was arranged with an abundance of candles and flowers casting a soft glow over the setting. As each course was served, Danute and Eanna admired the chef’s artistic presentation, featuring locally grown herbs, edible flowers, and fruits skillfully arranged to complement each dish. Each plate not only demonstrated the culinary mastery of Cretan cuisine but also honored the vibrant and diverse flavors of this Greek island, offering a truly memorable dining experience for the newlyweds.
It was a day full of joy and love supplemented with romantic flavors!
