«The wedding proposal was very romantic and unexpected. Liviu proposed at the Lebua Sky Restaurant in Bangkok. We just started our Thailand holiday and he invited me for “drinks some place nice” that turned out to be the chicest dinner at the best table. The waiters were all informed and kept suggesting that they make a picture of us. When the dessert arrived my plate was covered with a lid. I was a bit confused and even then didn’t realize what was happening. Then one of the waiters lifted the lid and there was a ring in a cup on coffee beans next to a chocolate cake and orchid flowers and “Will you marry me?” was written in chocolate sauce! My first reaction was to start laughing. When I came to my senses I said ”yes”.», the bride shared with us.
«I love the Instagram account of Instagram – it is a wonderful inspiration for the theme of a wedding, the locations, the decoration. That helped me a lot in defining what kind of vibe we would love to have at our wedding.»

«We wanted to have a pink-purple theme for the flowers and my bouquet. Our agency suggested to use the centrepieces for the table also for the ceremony decoration – by putting them on the white columns of different heights. That was a very creative and practical way to use the same flower arrangement through out the day. We also prepared small gifts for the guests featuring the same colours. So it was white table cloths and bright pink-purple flowers with little gift in the same colour. Very simple, yet eye-catchy. Plus the view around us was the main decoration of the ceremony.»
«We loved the ceremony at the beach – looking at the water and enjoying the view. We had fun at the photo shooting by the water afterwards and can’t believe how beautiful the pictures turned out. We definitely enjoyed the reception on a stage above the water. The weather was just perfect. And then afterwards we really loved the open air party until 4 am. The whole wedding was spread between 3 main locations in the Grecotel Cape Sounio: The beach for the ceremony; the dinner on the water; the open air party a few steps away..»
«If possible, hire an agency – it will be a great relieve not only in the preparation of the wedding but especially on the day itself, so that you can truly enjoy your day and not worry about little details. When looking for vendors – take your time, do your research and have a chat with them to make sure you are aligned on your expectations. When working with an agency be prepared that there will be miscommunications and that any wedding is a highly emotional event. So please try to not worry too much about every little detail. It will all play out in the most perfect way in the end. While choosing a dress – go wild! Be as impractical as you can. It’s that one day with the best memories for life! One of the regrets I hear most from the brides is that they were too practical and modest with the dress and wish they would have chosen another one.»
«I had two wedding dresses. One for the ceremony – with an extra long train that open up into a flower-round form and was a real wow-factor for the wedding and pictures. It had an open back, a v-shaped neckline and see-through lace on the sides. It was decorated with beads and had several layers underneath, so all in all the dress was extremely heavy, but who cares, right? The mermaid shape put the right accents on the body shape. It looked amazing live and on the photos! The second dress was for the party, A-line with a corset that held everything in place. The straps were decorated with Swarovski crystals. It was super easy to move and dance in it. The A-shaped skirt had a very elegant flow. I loved both of my dresses so much – too bad you only get to wear them once.»
«Our wedding was truly perfect and if we had to do it again we would choose all the same vendors who have done an amazing job and made us feel very special on our beautiful day. It was a truly unforgettable event!»
