Marina and Artur celebrated their love with an unforgettable wedding at the breathtaking Columbia Beach Resort, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Surrounded by natural beauty and a serene seaside backdrop, they exchanged vows beneath a romantic floral arch set up in the resort’s outdoor space. Every photo radiates their joy, perfectly framed by the venue’s stunning elegance. Inspired by Pinterest, Marina envisioned a warm and dreamy celebration filled with thoughtful details: «For the details, I used Printerest to understand what people have at their weddings. So the decorations were: arch, flowers near the chairs at the ceremony, praesidium, flowers on the tables, candles, gifts for the guests, menu, seating plan, bouquet, fabric on the ceiling…» Each element came together in a beautiful way to create an intimate, storybook atmosphere that left a lasting impression on everyone in attendance.

«We met on my last working day, when I came to the restaurant to celebrate with my colleagues. As we later found out, my colleagues had invited him intentionally to introduce him to me. He is a classmate of my colleagues. When we first met, I didn’t pay attention much because I had recently broken up with my ex-boyfriend and wasn’t interested in a new relationship. I went home earlier and forgot about this meeting. In two days, I went on a business trip and it was Christmas. When I was in another country, he followed me on Instagram and wrote to me that he wished to meet with me for dinner if I were not in a relationship. I told him to write to me in a week cause I was busy (and not interested actually). For me, it was like ‘maybe he would understand that this is no’. But he wrote to me exactly in a week and I decided to give him a chance. We met on the 30th of December in a restaurant, had a very good conversation and dinner. After I came home, I felt something. The next day, I wrote to him to find out how he was. So this is how our story began.»
«I ordered my main dress online. I never visited offline shops to try on any dresses. I chose the style online, I contacted the shop, I measured myself and ordered the dress. Fortunately, the size was perfect. The dress is ‘princess-style’ with embroidery and wide sleeves that start from the middle of the arm. My second dress I also ordered online, and it was a short and very light dress that is perfect after the main one.»
«He proposed to me on August, when we came to our favourite hotel for the weekend. It was dinner time and we were leaving the guest house for the restaurant. He said that he forgot something in the room and came back. In a while, he called me to help him with something. When I entered the room, he stood on his knee with the ring in his hands. He gave a little speech and after he asked if I agreed to marry him. Of course, I said yes. After, we went to the dinner and I was in shock for the whole evening!»
«My request was easy: I needed a combination of green/plants, white and brown/wooden. I wanted the arch to be very voluminous, the chairs to be wooden, the tables to be white, and the bouquet to be a little dishevelled. This is it. The decorators offered few variants and I chose what I liked more and they made it perfectly. For the details, I used Printerest to understand what people have at their weddings. So the decorations were: arch, flowers near the chairs at the ceremony, praesidium, flowers on the tables, candles, gifts for the guests, menu, seating plan, bouquet, fabric on the ceiling.»
«Our favorite moment is the ceremony. The most exciting moment.»
The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is to start to prepare in advance and don’t rely only on the organisers, check everything on yourself. Be sure to do a trial makeup and hairstyling. Meet your photographer in advance to discuss the details.
