Eleni and Samer chose the enchanting village of Velvento in Kozani for their wedding, with pure happiness shining on their faces. The ceremony and reception unfolded in a setting straight out of a fairytale, surrounded by vineyards that framed every moment beautifully. ISmaison Events took care of every detail with exceptional attention, focusing on a natural yet elegant style. From the ceremony to the reception tables, white and green hues dominated through floral arrangements of white roses, lisianthus, eucalyptus, olive branches, and gold candleholders with white candles. The ceremony beneath the majestic tree was truly one of the day’s highlights: sunlight streamed through the leaves, white chair-lined aisles framed the scene and a simple altar embraced the couple’s love, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The celebration continued with a gorgeous outdoor reception where guests enjoyed a relaxed lounge area, and the night ended on a high note with Black and White Drums bringing everyone to their feet with live rhythms, turning the evening into an unforgettable party. Join us as we relive these magical moments from Eleni and Samer’s wedding!

«We first met at a bar in Philadelphia in January 2009. Even though our conversation was brief, I must have left quite an impression because Samer found me on Facebook later that evening. From that moment, what started as a spark soon grew into real love. Over the years, our relationship evolved into something deeply emotional, built on love, patience, and balance. On January 26th, 2024, with my father’s blessing, Samer surprised me with the most beautiful dinner, a perfect and long-awaited moment that marked the beginning of our next chapter.»
«My wedding dress was a blend of rich, intricate beadwork with trumpet beads and Swarovski crystals, seamlessly woven into delicate lace appliqués, making the gown both dazzling and timeless. The visible boning on the sheer bodice added an effortless touch, while the geometric lines in the fabric created layers of multidimensional magic. The teardrop-shaped flowing train featured a textured tulle hem for an elegant finish, perfectly complemented by the open, sloping back with floating organic lace.»
«For my bridal bouquet, I wanted something simple and natural, as if we had just picked the flowers and gathered them, because that aesthetic matched perfectly with the winery where our wedding took place. We included olive branches, eucalyptus, roses, and white lisianthus blooms. I would describe its style as rustic–elegant.»
The advice I would give to a bride who is currently planning her wedding is that while planning can feel overwhelming, remember to enjoy the journey and the excitement leading up to the big day. Focus on the positive aspects and celebrate the milestones along the way. Throughout the planning process, remind yourself of the reasons you fell in love with your partner and why you’re so excited to begin this new chapter together

«My favorite moment from the wedding was when everyone, myself included, just let go and brought the party to life. Those moments were pure joy and made all the classic reception photos of “everyone dancing and having fun” truly come alive.»
