Secret Garden Wedding at the Athens Riviera



[section title=”The Planning”]

[field title=”Wedding Colors”]With the crystal-clear sea and lush vegetation as our canvas, we chose a palette of sharp white, vibrant green, and a sprinkle of gold to create a dreamy atmosphere that embraced the beauty of nature while adding a touch of glam.[/field]

[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]At our initial virtual meet-and-greet with the bride, she let us in on her dreamy vision: a stunning secret garden affair infused with the four elements of nature – earth, wind, fire, and water. She wanted the whole celebration to radiate with enchantment and wonder.[/field]

[field title=”Proposal Story”]It was Love at Third Sight! For the fate believers out there, this couple’s love story was etched in the stars, their paths destined to intertwine.

Once upon a time, Rana and Ahmad lived a stone’s throw away from each other in vibrant Dubai. Their offices were practically neighbors in the bustling Emaar Square, Downtown. Rana spent her days hustling at Deloitte while Ahmad was making waves at KPMG. It turns out they both shared a love for the same cafes and restaurants, yet destiny had different plans for them. Despite their close proximity, they never actually crossed paths.

Skipping ahead to the pandemic era, they made the bold decision to return to Toronto, Canada. Flash forward to September 2021 when fate intervened and brought them together once again. This time, they took a chance and agreed to share a meal. It only took three dates for that magical feeling to take hold. They just knew it – this was the real deal! After all, as the age-old saying goes, “When you know, you know!”

The wedding weekend began with a bang, as the wedding party kicked things off with a warm welcome dinner party at Moorings, nestled up next to the Vouliagmeni Marina. The next day, guests gathered at the beach to soak up some sun, take a dip in the sea, and indulge in a scrumptious Greek-style lunch while lounging in the shade of the trees. And finally, on day three, everyone had the time of their lives at the breathtaking Island Art and Taste venue at the Athens Riviera, wine glasses in hand and stunning sea views stretching out as far as the eye could see!
