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. This wedding invites you to get lost in the romantic and genuine atmosphere of Crete!

«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.

«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.»

On a beautiful winter afternoon in Lesvos, Kaliden and Jeremiah’s destination wedding unfolded like a heartfelt love story. Menta Weddings brought their rustic chic vision to life with olive branches scattered across a white wooden table and soft white candles glowing gently. As the bride shared, «The advice I would give to any bride planning her wedding is to choose Menta Weddings. Our wedding planner Gabriella is amazing and made all my dreams come to life. My husband and I are from the United States and it was Gabriella did a great job figuring out what we wanted and coordinating everything so that we did not have to stress leading up to the wedding and were able to enjoy our wedding day. Menta Weddings truly went above and beyond.». The atmosphere of that day was truly magical and we cannot wait to share every single moment!

«Jeremiah and I met at the university and have been together ever since. Jeremiah proposed me while we were hiking in Sequoia National Forest in California. He told me after he proposed that he brought the ring to many of our trips and adventures, including our first visit to Lesvos, so that he could genuinely surprise me at the perfect moment.»

«For our wedding our goal was simple elegance. We chose to go with lilies for the bridal bouquet and our decorations were simple, such as natural wood, greenery and candles and complimented the natural beauty of our venue. One of our favorite details of the ceremony was that we were married in the Catholic church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Mytilene. The church was so beautiful and the perfect size for us and our guests. Our favorite part of the reception was having great food at Caravan by the Sea and enjoying a familial atmosphere.»

One of our favorite moments from our wedding, besides the ceremony itself, was dancing with our friends and family at our reception.

Kaliden , Bride

«My wedding dress is from BHLDN and I loved how the beading and silhoutte gave it a timeless and almost vintage feel.»

«We actually matched on Tinder (not quite the cute love story), however I knew he wasn’t a “catfish” as he did go to my school (was two years above). He actually proposed me with our little boy on holiday in Crete, which was another reason on why we decided we wanted to get married there. We feel as though Crete is our place now and we love it!»

«My wedding dress was beautiful! The designer was Enzoani and the dress was called Raissa. It was timeless but still had a mix of classic and modern. It had a sheer dramatic train, with buttons on a low back. It included a shimmery lining which was perfect in the sunshine. It had a plunging sweetheart neckline with crystal straps. It was ivory and nude. As soon as I tried it on, I knew it was the dress for me.»

The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is to focus on what really matters to you and your husband-to-be. It’s easy to get swept up in expectations and what you think a wedding is “supposed” to look like. But make sure it reflects your personality. Make the most of your day, it really does go so fast!

Jessica , Bride

«I went for really neutral colours for the flowers, I didn’t want anything too bright. I wanted it to look elegant and timeless and I was really happy with how it turned out. The florist was amazing and it was exactly how I’d envisioned it. All of our guests were blown away by the reception and venue. It’s got a rustic charm but still beautiful and picturesque. As soon as we went and viewed it, I knew I wanted to get married there and cancelled all of the other places we had booked to visit.»

«Honestly, I couldn’t just pick one favourite moment as the whole day was everything I could have dreamed of and more. From getting ready with my bridesmaids, to walking down the aisle to Tom (and seeing our son Teddy in his little suit), to eating the most amazing food and then partying all evening to our favourite songs with all our family and friends, it was honestly sensational.»

Soft pink roses, white chrysanthemums, peonies and olive branches adorned the venue with timeless elegance. At the heart of the ceremony stood a beautiful floral arch framed by lush greenery, adding a romantic and serene touch to the scene. «For my wedding decoration I wanted neutral but touches of subtle pinks. I felt the pink added a little touch of the season to it. I wanted the flowers to feel rustic and wild so they complimented the relaxed feel of the day and the vibe of the venue…» the bride shared, reflecting on her dream come true wedding. Love Island Cakes completed the celebration with a chic three-tier wedding cake covered in white fondant that wowed both guests and the couple.

«Sam moved to my hometown for work and we met one month after he moved here. He tried to propose me on a family holiday in Cape Verde, he carried the ring around all week but me being me, made it impossible as I kept disagreeing with his plans to go anywhere he suggested. So we then went away to a lovely spa hotel for a night away, a lovely relaxed date night and Sam proposed when we got back to our room. Very intimate and perfect for us!»

The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her wedding is do everything you want to do. I added little details on last minute that I deliberated if they are essential or not but I’m so glad I did! You won’t regret it.

Briley , Bride

«I was so nervous to go for wedding dress shopping, worried I’d not look good in anything. I thought I wanted the big princess style wedding dress with lots of detail but they didn’t suit me at all. I ended up going for a plain fitted dress which is the opposite to what I thought would suit me – so always try everything on and trust the women at your wedding dress shop because they are the experts. I also opted for a second dress, something more fun and sparkly! The perfect bridal mini!»

«My favorite moment from our wedding was after the ceremony when it was cocktail hour! The sun was shining, the drinks were flowing and the saxaphone player was playing our favourite songs. I felt so relaxed and happy. I’d visualised the moment for so long and it felt perfect.»

Andria and Roy’s story began back in their college days and blossomed into a deep, loving relationship that was beautifully sealed with a romantic wedding in Nicosia, where their happiness radiated in every glance and smile. The couple chose a boho chic theme, featuring coral roses, anthuriums, eucalyptus and pampas grass, which added a unique touch to both the church and the reception space, thanks to the creative team at Anthopnoi. Andria’s entrance into the church was absolutely stunning, as she wore an airy off-the-shoulder wedding gown by Complice – Stalo Theodorou, with light tulle and delicate lace details that perfectly highlighted her romantic side. Roy was waiting for her, holding a one-of-a-kind bridal bouquet filled with beautiful flowers in earthy tones. The celebration continued with a wonderful reception that echoed the same boho style, and a special highlight was their two-tiered cake, adorned with fresh flowers by Aroma Vanilias, which the couple cut together with beaming smiles as they began this exciting new chapter of their life.

«We met at university, in a class we never imagined would change our lives. Eight years later, the most romantic proposal happened on a rooftop in Malta, with the whole city glowing below us. There, surrounded by flowers, champagne, and the magic of the moment, he got down on one knee and proposed. The most moving part? Just then, it started to drizzle, as if the sky itself wanted to be a part of our moment.»

My wedding dress was created by my beloved Stalo Theodorou. What can I say? It was incredible, from the details to the way it hugged my body. I felt like it was made just for me. Even though I had pictured something more classic, the moment I put it on, I just knew it was “the one”. It expressed my personality so clearly, and it’s what inspired me to give our wedding a more boho vibe.

Andria , Bride

«Our wedding decor was handled by Anthopnoi and the wonderful Mrs. Militsa, who from the very first moment embraced every idea I had and made it even better. My bridal bouquet matched the flowers on our invitations perfectly, a detail that made all the difference. Some of the flowers were anthuriums, hypericum, English roses and pampas grass. The whole wedding was decorated in a boho style, with natural colors and blooms that fit so beautifully with the venue. At the church, lush floral columns on both sides, filled with daisies, roses and so many other flowers, made the space feel both impressive and elegant. At the estate, the table settings were a blend of boho and romance, with woven napkins, oil lamps, lush flowers and little touches like a tiny bouquet of gypsophila tucked into each napkin, making every table unique.»

«My best advice for any bride planning her wedding is simple: enjoy the whole process, from organizing to the wedding day itself. Planning is part of the experience, so embrace it and make your wedding truly yours, true to who you are as a couple. And no matter what happens on the day, approach it with a relaxed attitude, because your wedding day should never be a source of stress. It’s meant to be the most beautiful day of your life.»

Love4Weddings was a guiding light for us as we planned. Through their articles, décor ideas and real wedding stories, we managed to shape a clear picture of what goes into organizing a wedding. It helped us find vendors and made us feel we weren’t alone in this big project! Even though most of our vendors were recommended by people who had already worked with them, Love4Weddings really helped us feel confident in our choices because we got to see real photos and read the impressions of other couples. I found so many ideas that helped me make every detail feel more special and personal.

Andria , Bride

«It’s hard to pick just one favorite moment from our wedding, because every part of the day had its own kind of magic, from those first tears as we got ready to the incredible party. But if I had to choose, I’d say the moment Roy and I met at the church and embraced. That first look was filled with emotion, relief, and so much love.»

Since we live abroad, fittings were limited, but with good communication and time management, the result was exactly what I had envisioned» the bride shared with us. She also revealed how the greek site Love4Weddings became a true ally throughout her destination wedding planning journey, offering her endless inspiration and ideas for the most special day of her life!

«We met in Amsterdam, where we both live, through a mutual friend. The proposal happened at home, very casual, just a day before we were heading out to dinner with friends. I didn’t expect it at all, we were at the door about to leave when he got down on one knee and gave me the ring.»

«My advice to a bride currently planning her wedding is to always remember why she’s doing it. In the chaos of wedding planning, it’s easy to lose sight of the essence. A wedding isn’t just a ceremony, it’s the beginning of a shared life. Focus on the fact that you’re putting together a celebration of your love with your partner and don’t let the logistics distract you from that. The cake, the dress and the décor are beautiful, but what you’ll remember most vividly are the looks, the laughter, the hugs and the feeling of that day. Face any unexpected hiccups with humor.»

I think it’s hard to choose a single favorite moment, but one of the most special was when I arrived at the church and told myself, this is it, take it all in!

Mary , Bride

«We wanted to prepare as much as we could on our own together with our friends, so everyone would feel like an active part of the celebration, not just guests. Serifos is so naturally beautiful that we felt no need for over-the-top décor and wanted everything to be simple and in harmony with the landscape. My bouquet had white, green and blue tones with eucalyptus, thistle, olive branches and jasmine, and we had lots of potted basil. For the wedding favors, we filled small bottles with tsipouro and tentura to honor our hometowns, Patras and Volos. Our wedding rings were handmade by my childhood friend who’s a jeweler, and our save the date was a video made from sketches illustrating our love story, created by a close friend of Nicholas.»

«We had known each other for years since we were from the same place!

«We met in 2015 in Thessaloniki, one night at a bar. For the first two years, we were in a long-distance relationship—Chania-Thessaloniki, Madrid-Athens. In 2017, we decided to live together in Madrid. That was our first big step. During those four years, we grew stronger as a couple and created memories that will stay with us forever. We moved back to Greece in 2021, and in 2023, Kostas proposed in the city where it all began. On a balcony overlooking Aristotelous Square, with the sun setting behind Mount Olympus and the sea stretching out below us, he gave me the engagement ring and I said yes.»

«I followed the greek site Love4Weddings throughout the planning process, and it gave me so many ideas for the style and decor.»

«Our wedding was a civil ceremony led by a celebrant. The overall style was boho chic with pops of color. We especially loved the two floral pillars we stood in front of during the ceremony, beautifully designed by Elpida Salouka.»

«We chose to get married in Igoumenitsa, the town where I was born and raised. Many friends from Spain, Italy, Mexico, Canada and more came to celebrate with us. The wedding party went on until the early morning hours.»

«My wedding dress was a custom-made piece by Luccia B. I fell in love with her design from the first moment I saw it. She understood exactly what I wanted and tailored it just for me. Every appointment with her was such a beautiful experience—just as special as the dress itself. I felt like myself in it. The main fabric was crepe, which made it minimal and comfortable, and with the addition of organza on the top and at the train, it felt lighter and more ethereal. I truly enjoyed wearing it all night long.»

One of the things we have in common is our love for flowers, so naturally they were everywhere—from the ceremony to the reception. We chose yellow and orange tones, our favorite colors, which also remind us of Spain!

Mary , Bride

«We couldn’t possibly choose just one favorite moment from our wedding. But if we had to, it would be the glance we shared right before the ceremony started, and our first dance.»

My advice to any bride planning her wedding is to enjoy the whole process of preparation and research, because it’s part of the experience. Be decisive, stay calm and focus on having a good time with your partner because if you’re both happy, everyone else will be too.

«Our story began 12 years ago, back when we were still students. We met during the carnival in Xanthi, through mutual friends, and somehow that random encounter turned into something so much more. The wedding proposal happened in 2022, in Iceland, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, geothermal springs and magical mountains.»

When we decided in December 2023 to start planning our wedding, the greek site Love4Weddings became the starting point of my search for wedding professionals. That’s how the beautiful and creative journey of preparing our wedding began. Through the site, I found our wedding planner, Gia Sena Mono Olga Georgiadi and from that moment on, I knew I was in the best hands.

Katerina , Bride

«The moment I put on my wedding dress, I instantly knew it was the one. Minimal, modern, and elegant—it matched my style perfectly. Zeta from Hatzi Bridal in Larissa guided me so beautifully from the very beginning and helped me find the dress of my dreams. Thanks to her, the whole experience was joyful and completely stress-free.»

«For the wedding decor, we wanted something simple and elegant that would reflect our style. I’ve always loved the combination of white and green, so for the floral arrangements on the tables and my bridal bouquet, I chose white roses, hydrangeas and eucalyptus. We added touches of soft blue delphinium and eryngium for a bit of contrast, and they became my “something blue.” Our wedding planner included beautiful rustic touches—wooden surfaces, vintage metal accents, and crystal vessels—that styled the church courtyard and reception space perfectly. Everything blended so beautifully with the natural charm of Zagora.»

«We honestly can’t choose just one favorite moment. We lived every minute of that day like a dream. Our whole world was there—family, relatives, friends, the people we love. They traveled from everywhere to be with us on such a meaningful day and to share in our joy. The emotions were indescribable, and the happiness we felt seeing everyone together in one place was beyond words.»

«My advice to any bride currently planning her wedding is to truly enjoy the preparation process and to trust the professionals she’s chosen. Planning your wedding, with all the little and big details that come with it, is such a creative journey. There’s no need for unnecessary stress or worry. Follow your instincts, and everything will fall into place.»

For obvious reasons, we love elopements on Greek islands—and this Santorini elopement is definitely no exception. Kerstin and Marko traveled from Germany to say “I do” on the iconic cliffs of Santorini, surrounded by breathtaking views and warm, late-summer light. With Pia & Pia Wedding Planner Greece bringing their vision to life, every detail was carefully curated, from the stunning floral arrangements by Flowery Santorini to the mouthwatering spread by Spicy Bites Catering. “When choosing flowers, the only thing that really mattered to me was the color,” the bride shared. “Since we were getting married at the beginning of September, I wanted slightly autumnal colors and we decided that orange and dusty pink would work well.” The result? A dreamy celebration full of texture, romance, and style—made all the more perfect by Kerstin’s elegant Justin Alexander gown and the unforgettable charm of the island!

«We met through friends. After our first date, neither of us was really interested in each other. Six months later, Marko asked me out again. This time, it clicked and a month later, we were officially a couple. Marko and I spent a few days in Venice for my 30th birthday. On my birthday, we went on a gondola ride and he proposed to me.»

The advice I would give to a bride who is now planning her weddings is do not get too hung up on details, trust your wedding planners and be open to other ideas. Spend the day enjoying it and surround yourself only with people who are good for you and dear to your heart. It’s your day, not theirs.

Kerstin , Bride

«I went to a bridal shop and tried on five dresses. The first dress was the one I bought, it’s a dress by Justin Alexander. I love the beautiful train and the playful lace. The Carmen sleeves loosen up the look even more, and the row of buttons at the back looks very elegant.»

«When choosing flowers, the only thing that really mattered to me was the color. Since we were getting married at the beginning of September, I wanted slightly autumnal colors and we decided that orange and dusty pink would work well. Otherwise, we trusted our wedding planners and florists completely. For our wedding style, we wanted something casual and playful with a touch of boho. Our planners perfectly implemented these ideas. The most beautiful part for us was the reading of our self-written vows. At the reception, the moment when we saw each other for the first time was beautiful and breathtaking. We also thought the place and our location were a great choice. Since some towns on Santorini are quite touristy and busy, Akrotiri and the Akrorama Suite were the perfect choice for a quiet, secluded wedding without the hustle and bustle of strangers. We’re both happy to have had a small, intimate elopement just for us, allowing us to concentrate 100% on ourselves and our love.»

«Our favorite moment is reading the vows and the evening atmosphere with all the candles.»
