She said YES!
On the hills surrounded by olive groves, in the private stone villa with cozy pool this important question was asked to start their new chapter💛
All captured to keep memories forever, smiles and tears of joy with sunflower 🌻 being their theme, our couple enjoyed private chef dinner and blueberry cake topped with baby breath!
….and to continue the vacations in Crete🇬🇷

What was supposed to be a stormy day, turned into the peaceful and elegant execution of the most romantic day for Cecilie and Marc.
Their Chania vintage “old school” venue was transformed into a place of celebration with all adds on to make sure it felt festive and wedding style atmosphere, mixing Greek vibes and French chic.
Walking distance ceremony from the beach to the terrace overlooking the smooth surface of Aegean adorned with festoon lights, classy family style tables, dark night sky blown by fireworks show and one fruity cake that all the attending kids loved tasting with their fingers and hands on🩷 It was a true Greek island wedding day for all!

La cérémonie du mariage onirique!
It was all that Marc & Cecilie, our Parisian love birds wanted!
On the beach below their hotel, they exchanged their vows in between friends’ warm speeches, love songs and lots of laughs!
From Paris with love to Chania, they didn’t miss the moment and cherished it with a champagne tower sur le sable🌊☀️🇬🇷

UNDER THE CHARM OF BOUGAINVILLEA
Here is the wedding storytelling for Irene and Kjell-Haakon with bougainvillea to be more than a backdrop.

It is a symbol—of Mediterranean warmth, of wild beauty, of love that flourishes in sunlight and endures through seasons.
The radiant colors of those ornamental vines are always eye catchers for perfect ambiance design and styling.

Happy Mother’s Day to all mamas!
I was lucky to sign in for this journey and my dream came true❤️
There is no better lesson in life and no other unconditional love for me!
She teaches me to be a better and stronger person every day!
She taught me that we all have only one life and it must be cherished and respected!
I take her to museums, introduce to things dear to my heart and soul and she patiently teaches me to play video games (that I have no ambition to win🤭).
She is my companion and great student.
I love travelling with her and can’t wait for next and next and next adventures to come to continue this precious role I was given!
I’m also blessed to share this journey along with devoted and wise fatherhood by @andreas_markakis !
Penelope, the girl who is showing me what motherhood means!
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY have I said?
