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!
