The mirrored aisle reflected the light in the most captivating way, creating a sense of depth and beauty that tied perfectly into the couple’s timeless vision. Their palette of whites, tans, sparkling golds and delicate accents came together in harmony, especially at the reception, where crystal chandeliers and gold-trimmed tableware shimmered above the Aegean views. «The site of Chic and Stylish Weddings played a big part in inspiring our overall look and feel.

«We were connected by a mutual friend in a suite at a hockey game in Seattle. What started as a fun night out turned into the beginning of something really special. He proposed me in a wine cave in Napa Valley, with our best friends there to celebrate. It was intimate, unexpected and absolutely romantic.»

«For our wedding decoration we envisioned a timeless and elegant atmosphere, with cohesive neutrals and soft tones. Our color palette featured whites, tans, sparkling golds and delicate accents that created a clean, romantic look. One of our favorite elements was the mirrored aisle, it added a unique, striking touch and reflected the soft light beautifully. For the wedding ceremony, we chose a circular arch to symbolize infinite love and unity. The reception tables were absolutely stunning. Mirrored surfaces, soft white florals, gold accents and glowing candlelight created a warm, romantic ambiance. Overhead, chandeliers added just the right amount of sparkle to complete the setting we had dreamed of.»

It was a moment of pure connection, emotion and joy that we’ll always hold close.»

The advice I would give to a bride who is now planing her wedding is: if you’re planning a wedding in Greece, one of the best things you can do is find local inspiration and trust experienced vendors who truly understand the beauty and rhythm of the country. Chic & Stylish Weddings was an amazing resource for us—they helped inspire the overall look and feel of our day with their elegant, timeless style that fits Greece so naturally. Be clear about your vision, but also stay open to local suggestions. Greece has its own charm and sometimes the unexpected moments become the most magical. And don’t stress over every little detail! You’re getting married in one of the most breathtaking places in the world, enjoy the sunsets, the food and every moment with your people.

Liz , Bride

«My wedding dress was elegant and timeless, featuring delicate sleeves and a royal-length veil that added a touch of classic romance. The back was beautifully fitted and tailored, hugging just right to create a graceful silhouette that felt both comfortable and stunning. I found this perfect gown right here in the Pacific Northwest, which made it even more special and meaningful. The moment I tried it on, my mom and I shared a heartfelt tearful moment together, it was one of those unforgettable memories that made the dress feel even more perfect for our day.»

«The celebration didn’t end with the wedding ceremony the next day, we set sail on a beautiful yacht with our DJ, photographer and videographer. It was the perfect way to keep the party going, surrounded by stunning views, great music and the people who captured every moment of our journey. That day felt like an unforgettable extension of our wedding celebration, full of laughter, love and memories that will last a lifetime.»

We absolutely adore weddings in Crete, but when it comes to a rustic chic celebration filled with the most beautiful and natural details, this one takes inspiration to a whole new level. With wedding planner Maria Ghika thoughtfully curating every element of this destination wedding, Aristea and Marios’ day in Chania was a true celebration of authenticity and Mediterranean beauty. The rustic wedding décor, rich with earthy tones and Mediterranean touches, set in an open-air venue surrounded by olive trees and wooden tables, created a setting that perfectly blended the charm of Cretan tradition with modern simplicity. «The decoration of our wedding was inspired by the simplicity and natural beauty of Crete, where the ceremony also took place. We wanted to honor the place and its authentic charm, so we chose a rustic style with strong Mediterranean elements, such as linen fabrics, natural wood, olive branches and wildflowers…» Aristea shared with us and as you will see, every single detail, from the floral arrangements with chamomile and ranunculus to the clay tableware, woven baskets and traditional treats radiated natural elegance and warmth. The bride’s look was perfectly completed with soft makeup and a stunning hairstyle by Argyro Bridal Make Up & Hairstyle in Crete, highlighting her natural beauty.

«Our story began when we were teenagers. Marios was playing basketball in the village tournament, and I just went to watch the game, thinking I would be bored. The village team won, and afterwards we all went out to celebrate. Since then, we have been inseparable. It was love at first sight!»

I visited the greek wedding site Love4Weddings, which from the very first moment was a wonderful source of inspiration for me. It helped me a lot to find professionals and to figure out the style of wedding that suited us — more natural, unpretentious and with a strong Greek identity. Also, the real wedding stories of other couples made me feel that I was not alone in the stress and helped me let go and enjoy the happiness of the moment. We live in England, and the idea of planning our wedding from a distance scared us at first. Until we met Maria Gika. She was not just a professional — she was the voice of calm, care and refined taste.

Aristea , Bride

«The decoration of our wedding was inspired by the simplicity and natural beauty of Crete, where the ceremony also took place. We wanted to honor the place and its authentic charm, so we chose a rustic style with strong Mediterranean elements, such as linen fabrics, natural wood, olive branches and wildflowers. The ceremony took place outside a stone-built church, in a traditional courtyard full of light, simplicity and character. The guests sat on wooden chairs decorated with olive twigs, while my bridal bouquet combined chamomile, lisianthus, wheat and eucalyptus, a bouquet that looked as if it had been picked from a meadow just before the ceremony.»

«Our favorite details? The olive bar with local products, the clay jugs, the straw touches and the dining table decorated with natural wildflowers that made the place look like the setting of a period film. Everything blended beautifully and created exactly the atmosphere we had dreamed of: effortless, warm and filled with love.»

«Maria traveled to Brighton to meet us, to truly listen and understand our thoughts and ideas, so that she could design a wedding in Crete that expressed us completely. From our very first meeting, we knew she was our person. Our wedding turned out exactly as we dreamed — and even more. It was elegant, full of emotion and deeply personal. There was never a moment when we felt we were “running” or that something was missing. Maria took care of everything with kindness, precision and style. We found her through Love4Weddings and we feel endlessly grateful for that. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple looking for something truly authentic.»

«It is hard to pick just one favorite moment, because everything flowed so beautifully and naturally. But if we had to choose, we would say that what stayed with us the most was the incredible connection between everyone and the music. We had live music, and the whole celebration revolved around it: the dancing, the singing, the laughter, the genuine joy. It was like we all became one big company, with no “official” or “unofficial,” just happiness, rhythm and emotion.»

«The best advice I can give to a bride now planning her wedding is to live every moment, both the beautiful and the stressful, because the wedding day passes unbelievably fast and you can never get enough of it! Whatever goes wrong in the preparation, in the end everything will fall into place. And yes, all this “trouble” is more than worth it. The important thing is to be present, not to stress over the details so much that you lose the magic of the moment. This day is for you and your love. Enjoy it!»

«My wedding dress was the most spontaneous choice of the whole preparation. I did not spend hours thinking about it or hesitating, I just saw it and felt it was “the one.” It was airy, romantic and had something unpretentious that matched perfectly with the atmosphere of our wedding. The soft tulle and embroidered flowers gave it a natural elegance, while the most important thing for me was that I felt comfortable in it, without it restricting me for a single moment.»

«We met at the gym back in 2019, it was love at first sight. We started dating shortly after and moved in together during the covid lockdowns, which brought us even closer. On June 22, 2024, he proposed me during a magical sunset at Limni Dock in Polis Chrysochous. We were both in our swimsuits, completely relaxed and happy and the moment felt spontaneous, intimate and perfect. Afterwards, we celebrated the beginning of our next chapter with a meze dinner. It was the most unforgettable day.»

One of my favorite moments was walking down the aisle during the sunset and seeing him waiting for me, it felt so emotional and magical. Everything around us was glowing and I’ll never forget the feeling of love and calm in that moment. It was perfect.

«The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is do not stress over the small details and focus on what truly matters to you as a couple. Things might not go exactly as planned, but the day will still be beautiful. Trust your vendors, enjoy the process, and take in every moment, it really does go by so fast!»

«My wedding dress from Neutral Gallery had a soft, romantic style with a modern twist. It featured a strapless sweetheart neckline and a flowy A-line silhouette that felt both effortless and elegant. The delicate dotted tulle added a subtle texture that made the dress feel unique without being over-the-top. It was light, feminine, and timeless perfect for our sunset wedding. The wedding style reflected exactly how I wanted to feel on the day: relaxed, beautiful and completely myself.»

«We’ve had mutual friends for years but we were speaking on Instagram for a while after Tom initially messaged me in 2018. He took me on a few dates in London before we decided to get into a relationship and we’ve been inseparable ever since. After falling pregnant with our daughter Mila, Tom proposed to me on a trip to Lake Como. The scenery was perfection, overlooking looking the Lake from a cobbled stairway in Bellagio. On one knee, Tom presented a ring that he’d personally designed (the exact style I’d always dreamed of and hinted about many times). From that day onwards we started planning what was an unforgettable day on July 26th 2025.»

My favorite moment was when I caught eyes with Tom walking down the aisle of the church. And for Toms’ favorite moment was walking in to the Four Seasons Ballroom hand in hand with Leah and our daughter Mila, seeing the smiles of all our friends and family.

Leah , Bride

«Unfortunately we were only made aware of the greek site Love4Weddings after our wedding, however, had we been aware during our planning process it definitely would’ve saved us time sourcing vendors and provided us with some ideas on design. We live in London and regularly came back and forth to Limassol to meet with our vendors. Everything from start to finish was planned by us, with the guidance of all our vendors who were outstanding.»

«We had an all white vision for our wedding decoration, we wanted something that made a statement but at the same time was elegant and sophisticated. The flowers were all white, roses are my favourite flowers and were a key part of our floral display. We also wanted our flowers looking organic and flowy, moving away from the typical symmetrical appearance at weddings. Candles were incorporated throughout the ballroom, creating a stunning and romantic atmosphere. We loved every part of our wedding look and everything complimented eachother perfectly!»

«The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is do not stress, it all comes together in the end. All the finer details you stress about prior to the wedding become irrelevant on the day. Pick wedding vendors you connect with and understand your vision. It builds trust and confidence in what you envisaged being priced together.»

«After visiting many bridal boutiques in London, I failed to have that moment where I fell in love with a wedding dress. However, what it did make me realise is what I wanted my dress to be. After visiting Marina Bridal, a local boutique near where I live. I asked if she could design my vision (which was very specific). She then had my dream dress made for me. It was perfect, it had a detachable skirt that gave me that dramatic entrance I wanted and in the evening it became the sleek and classy look I visioned. It was one of a kind and everything I wanted it to be.»

«We met during the covid period, just before lockdown, through a random twist of fate. The proposal happened in 2024 after a year of living together. I was at home watching my favorite show when suddenly the TV screen went black and Panagiotis appeared with a little video, a heartfelt love confession, and then he came out of the room asking me to open the door because there was a package for me. When I opened it, it was a bouquet with a card guiding me, and as I turned around, he was down on one knee with the ring. It was such a personal and unpredictable proposal, exactly the kind that fits us as a couple.»

«Our wedding decoration was all about romance and a fairytale feel in soft shades of beige, pink, and pastels, since my gown was in baby pink. My bridal bouquet was a mix of orchids and roses. At the reception there were grand floral arrangements, chandeliers, and candle holders with plenty of candles casting a gentle light. The whole atmosphere felt both romantic and grand.» the ride shared with us.

Our favorite moment of the wedding was right after cutting the cake, when Tilemachos Zeis was singing live and had everyone on their feet. All our friends and guests were dancing together in one incredible party.Beautiful wedding in Naxos with romantic orchids

«The summer of 2021 marked the beginning of our post-pandemic love story. What started as a casual first date at our local pub quickly blossomed into something extraordinary. From that moment on, Nav and I were inseparable, two hearts finding solace and joy in each other after a time of global uncertainty. Four years later, their journey reached a breathtaking milestone. Nav proposed to me in the magical landscapes of Cappadocia, Turkey, a destination she had always dreamed of visiting. With hot air balloons drifting across the sunrise and ancient valleys stretching beneath them, it was the perfect setting for a love that had already soared so high.»

«My bridal bouquet was a vision of simplicity and sophistication: pure white blooms accented with delicate pearl detailing. Nav looked effortlessly refined in a crisp white suit jacket, adding a modern twist to a classic look. To keep our guests cool beneath the radiant Athens sun, we offered personalised handheld fans, thoughtful and stylish favors that doubled as keepsakes. Each seat also held a sweet bag, adding a playful touch to the refined atmosphere.»

«One of our favourite design moments was the wedding ceremony area. We draped soft white fabric overhead to create a romantic, ethereal feel and lined the aisle with lush green and white florals that echoed our theme. It was the perfect setting to speak the words that would begin out forever.»

We enjoyed every moment of our wedding, I’d say one favourite moment might have been standing at the vow area and surrounded by soft white drapery, lush green and white florals and the people you love, speaking the words that marked the beginning of our forever. Also it was seeing our guests smile as they cooled off with their fans, or catching Nav’s eyes as I walked down the aisle with my bridal bouquet. Sometimes it’s the quiet glances, the shared laughter, or the feeling of “we did this” that lingers most.

Gurpreet , Bride

«I brought my wedding dress from Stacees in the Uk. I always knew I wanted a fitted dress with lace. I also knew I wanted a champagne colour as opposed to white. I fell in love with the dress as soon as I tried it on and it complimented my pearl jewellery perfectly.»

«The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is: stay true to your vision, let your wedding reflect you. Details matter, but don’t let them consume you. Delegate and trust, the lead up to the wedding can be stressful and exhausting so delegate to family friends if needed. Finally, take a moment to pause and take it all in with your partner. And enjoy the day!»

«We met in London, the second weekend after he moved there from Lebanon. Although our families had been friends for 20 years, we had never met. He almost didn’t make it to that dinner, but fate had other plans and we’ve never stopped talking since that day. He proposed me at sunset on the beach in Jbeil, Lebanon, my favorite setting and time of day, in our beloved home country.»

«For our wedding decoration we really wanted our wedding flowers to be colorful and whimsical, reflecting the joy of the day, especially for the reception, which took place in a magical venue by the sea (Island Resort Athens Riviera). For my bridal bouquet, I chose classic flowers that are also my all-time favorite: white peonies. Since my wedding dress was a piece of art on its own, I wanted something timeless and understated to balance it out. For the church, which was already magnificent on its own, we kept the decoration elegant and refined with lush greenery and white orchids, classic and chic, allowing the beauty of the space to shine while adding just the right touch of grace.»

What I loved most was how everything came together at the reception: the vibrant flowers, the sea breeze, and the whimsical colors created the dreamlike atmosphere we had always imagined.

«Spiros and I kept crossing paths at different Greek events in Los Angeles, almost as if the universe was determined to bring us together. After a few chance encounters, we finally sat down and began to talk and in that moment, everything just fell into place. When the night came to an end, he asked me out on a date, and from then on, our story began. When I was little, every time my family visited Greece, we would go to Nafplio—it quickly became one of my favorite places. Spiro knew how special it was to me. So when he brought me to the top of the castle and proposed, it couldn’t have been more perfect. In the place I had loved since childhood, I started a new chapter with the person I love most..»

«We have known each other since we were 8 years old, he was our very first childhood crush! He lived permanently in Crete and I was in Athens, and those summer holidays brought us close! Since then we kept in touch as friends. My family and I continued visiting that place in the following years, so we maintained a very good bond and stayed connected. Until the moment we met again and our relationship turned into something more. The wedding proposal was like a fairytale in Germany, at Neuschwanstein Castle. The presence of the castle itself was so unique and meaningful and it was one of the reasons why we chose to marry in a place like Monemvasia, apart from the fact that it also happens to be where my family comes from.»

«My wedding dress was by Demetrios and it was exactly what I had always dreamed of! In fact, it was the very first one I tried on from the selection they brought me!»

«I visited the greek wedding site Love4Weddings site especially in the beginning, when I needed inspiration and ideas to shape the concept that truly represented us!»

We completely trusted Aleiferopoulos Flowers, who from the very first moment understood the style and color palette we wanted to create! The arrangement in cappuccino, pink, and orange shades (some of the most distinctive ones), combined with delicate slices of dried oranges, was the perfect choice for the castle of Monemvasia and its hues, as well as for the season we got married (March 1st).

My advice to a bride now planning her wedding is that this whole journey taught me the more secure and comfortable you feel with the professionals you choose, the more you will be able to truly live the here and now of this once-in-a-lifetime moment!
