A breathtaking beige wedding dress with lace and embroideries, a wonderful island and a wedding with rustic elements and olive colors. Panayiota and Nikos’s weddings has blown our minds and we are super thrilled that we are sharing it with you today!

“We were only 16 years old when we first met, and participating in a traditional debutante ball. Both with different partners, but constantly looking over our shoulders, I knew Nicko was the one for me very early on”.

“After 6 years being together, Nicko took me on a getaway to Melbourne. He planned a super romantic evening of fine dining, desserts and champagne – my absolute favourite. The proposal happened in our hotel room, with roses scattered everywhere and a very special number used to crack the safe where the ring box was hiding. It was a truly magical night, and one I will never forget!”

“Our wedding colors were very natural and rustic, keeping in theme with the beautiful island of Kythera. Lots of olive branches, natural tones and native Sempreviva flowers which we love”.

“When I first saw my wedding dress I was so overwhelmed with emotion! I designed the dress with my designer, but I could have never expected such a beautiful outcome. It was a truly perfect dress, made just for me”.

Panayiota’s advice to all future brides to be is this:

"It doesn't matter what colour your flowers are, if the chairs face a certain way or even if your makeup lasts all night - it's all about the experience and how you feel in the moment. Stop, breathe, look into your partners eyes and enjoy the moments of the day."
