A romantic spring wedding in Chania at the beautiful Dourakis Winery takes us on a journey through the beautiful love story of Ellie and Lewis, a couple who began their shared adventure with a dreamy proposal in Rome. The charming city of Chania stands out for offering authenticity and natural elegance without excess and that is exactly what they fell in love with when choosing to say their big «I do» surrounded by nature. Because they were getting married at a winery embraced by stunning greenery, they did not want the flowers to overshadow the landscape, so by working closely with My Planner they designed a decoration in white, yellow and green that radiated fresh spring vibes. En Kipo Flower Creations crafted arrangements with white and cream roses, hydrangeas, lisianthus, chrysanthemums, delphinium, eucalyptus and lush greenery, while the thoughtfully curated centerpieces blended seamlessly with the venue, adding brightness without taking anything away from the natural beauty of the setting. After the ceremony, Pour Choices took care of the bar catering and treated guests to refreshing cocktails that perfectly complemented the celebration. Among the many unforgettable moments, our bride shares «The whole day was incredible and it is hard to choose just one moment that stood out. But for both of us, the time right after our first dance was truly unforgettable», and we cannot help but smile seeing how much love shines through every photograph. Enjoy with us all the details of this wonderful wedding in Chania that will stay in your heart forever.

«I met Lewis when we were young through mutual friends. Our paths crossed often, but back then nothing more happened. Two and a half years later we finally agreed to go on a date, and from that moment we were inseparable. We moved in together quite quickly and three years later we took a trip to Rome. That is where he proposed to me. I had absolutely no idea it was coming, so it was the most incredible surprise. He had planned the entire day with all my favorite things and then asked me to marry him at a beautiful, romantic spot with a view.»



«Finding my wedding dress took time. At first I had a very clear vision in mind, but when I tried that style on, I just did not feel like myself. I wanted something that matched the aesthetic and beauty of the venue, so I chose a fitted dress with delicate pearls on the bodice. The two things I knew I truly wanted were an open back and a long train, and my dream dress had both. It was simple, elegant and most importantly timeless.»







Because we got married at a winery surrounded by stunning natural greenery, we did not want our flowers to overshadow the landscape. Working closely with Mariangela from My Planner, we chose elegant centerpieces that stayed in harmony with the venue. Our color palette was yellow to reflect the freshness of spring, so we incorporated subtle touches of yellow in the floral arrangements to add brightness and vibrancy without taking anything away from the setting.

«The one piece of advice I would give to every bride is to truly enjoy the day and embrace the planning process. At times it may feel stressful and demanding, but you only experience this once. Not everything will go exactly as you planned and that is okay. Those little imperfections are what make the day uniquely yours.»




My Planner shared with us: «Crete, the largest island in Greece, hosted one of the most special weddings of the season. Ellie and Lewis, surrounded by friends and family, united their lives at a stunning winery that beautifully combines natural beauty with authentic Cretan hospitality. The day began with a sky painted in warm orange tones, hinting at the magic to come, while the bridesmaids dressed in yellow glowed beneath the sunset colors and an unexpected red powder added a unique, almost playful touch to the atmosphere. Nothing could overshadow the joy and love that filled the space. The decor, minimal and perfectly in harmony with the landscape, allowed nature to take the lead, while the flowers, subtle and carefully curated, completed a day that will remain forever in everyone’s memory. When night fell, Ellie and Lewis danced under the stars, embraced by their closest loved ones, during an evening filled with tears of joy and powerful emotions. It was a warm and meaningful wedding, a true celebration of their love, where the couple wrote their own life chapter that will last forever.»
