Pretty pampas grass installations and a soft, neutral color palette make this destination Greece wedding an absolute must-see. Lily Of The Valley planned the epic celebration in Mykonos and filled it with carefully curated details and special touches that have left us spellbound. Floral design by Studio 7 brings the couple’s love story to life and Sotiris Tsakanikas artfully captures the joy that fills every inch of the incredible day. Fall in love with every magical moment inside the full gallery.
From the bride… From 2018 proposal to a 2022 wedding, we had 2 beautiful boys, an unexpected pandemic and a lot of delays and changes but we made it to our magical day/weekend of wedding celebrations and every minute of planning and waiting was worth it! There was no question of destination for us, we had been to Mykonos several times before and loved the magical feeling, vibrance and beauty of the island. Having Diane, Lily of the valley, to help us plan in Mykonos made the process a dream, we had a vision and she matched it perfectly to make it a reality. We had all of our closest friends and family arrive on the island for a weekend of fun celebrations that built up to our special day. We hired Villa Destiny for the weekend, a beautiful villa with a great amount of space to host a lot of our wedding guests as well as the wedding event.
The morning of the wedding the villa was transformed into a stunning set up, just as we had imagined. We kept things neutral with whites, beiges and blush pinks to compliment our wedding dress, groom’s suit, bridesmaids’ and groomsmen’s attires. Everything from the beautiful floral arrangements to the table décor, incredible cake and decorative arrangements around the villa all tied in beautifully! Our ceremony, with an incredible floral arch and sea views was intimate, perfect and a little emotional! There was brief break after for our guests to enjoy some drinks and canapés whilst we managed to sneak away and have some lovely pictures captured of the both of us, having that moment in between was definitely appreciated.
When we returned the party began. We had an incredible catering team that prepared a four course dinner. We also had an extremely fun entertaining band that had everyone on their feet before the main course was even served! It was the perfect atmosphere of love, fun and class. Looking around seeing our families and friends having an incredible time celebrating us was very special. The party continued on to the dance floor where we enjoyed our cake cutting, dazzling fireworks and dancing the night away with the people we love the most. Reflecting back to our day we only wish we could do it all again! Our day went so smooth, it was everything we dreamed it would be and more. We really appreciate our wedding planner Diane of Lily Of The Valley and her suggested vendors of flowers, cake , caterers and entertainment. Every detail of our day was personable and incredible. We also thoroughly enjoyed our chosen photographer Sotiris Tsakanikas and film creators With Heart Films that directed us so well in capturing our special moments and kept it fun and in the moment. We would go back and do it all again 100 times over if we could!
