This destination wedding of Kate and Spenser has our hearts pitter-pattering from start to finish! Planned beautifully by Ithaki Weddings, their wedding was precisely what this couple wanted and so much more: «As our wedding was aboard we relied heavily on our Wedding Planner Sue from Ithaki Weddings, who was just fantastic! She completely understood what we had envisioned! Because the venue had the most amazing views we wanted simple and elegant decoration and detail that would enhance the scenery but not over take the views whilst incorporating some flowers that are native to the island…» Kate share with us and we are definitely looking forward to enjoy all the lovely details from wedding in Ithaca with you!

«Roughly when we was about 11 or 12 yeas old Spencer used to live round the corner from a friend of mine at school. I used to joke saying that Spencer loved me from that moment and I was the one that got away. Over the years we actually dated once before when we were like 16 which didn’t work out (mainly me) but I’m glad it didn’t otherwise we wouldn’t be where we are now. We used to bump into each other every few months or years and we would always take ages catching up and chatting whether it was in a night club, at college or over coffee. It always seemed to be the wrong timing in our lives i.e. new relationships, or work… but we were always friends and enjoyed each others company. When we met up for the final time we actually went out for coffee and we was talking from 5pm to when the coffee shop was closing and had to leave…» the bride shared with us.

«Spencer proposed in Bali whilst we was on a traveling holiday technically twice. The first time we were having an amazing day touring round all the local water falls, although Spencer was slightly stressy being possessive over the back pack, so much so I couldn’t find my T-shirt and wanted to double check the bag and he wouldn’t let me so we had a little tis, I couldn’t figure out why he was being so mean and stressy (makes sense now..). We had just been in the water fall and swimming and as we were leaving I turned round and he was down on one knee. At first I thought he was joking (because we didn’t have a house or stable careers etc.) I was very surprised… Of course I said yes and I still joke to this day that where he proposed was a traditional foot washing area for the water fall so basically at a public toilet…»

«However me being me and irrational at times had a little panic that we weren’t ready I was going to the university and we had no house, we couldn’t afford it etc… So Spencer basically in a nice way took the proposal back and said when you’re ready let me know whether it’s this holiday or the next or in years time because he’s ready and waiting…»
«Well I knew from that moment he was the man I wanted to marry (a man that can cope with my kind of crazy) So I casually suggested a couple of days later that if he did propose I’m ready because I know I’m going to marry him. He then left me hanging/guessing. And a week later he did propose…»

We were on a gorgeous beach having dinner and we went for a walk down the beach and we ended up at this peninsula that we could see from our villa, admiring the sunset and again I turned around completely caught off guard because I though I had really put him off and he was on one knee.

«Every recommendation our wedding plannner Sue made she had considered what we wanted and helped us incorporate the island into our day: from the flowers and décor to the food and traditions into our ceremony.»



We don’t think we can choose just one aspect of our wedding that we enjoyed the most, because the whole day was perfect and had one of the best days of our lives.

«It is all about who you are with and what you want the day to look like! there is nothing wrong with having a big extravagant wedding or a more low key wedding as long as you can look back on the day a smile. Plus get a perfume or aftershave specific for that day. Every time you wear it, it will take you back!»
