A dreamy summer boho wedding in Athens, filled with earthy tones and ivory beige details, takes us on a journey through images brimming with natural beauty and heartfelt romance, as Vivian and Thanos celebrated the most beautiful day of their lives at the stunning Efielena Estate. The picturesque church of Agios Dimitrios, embraced by lush greenery, created the perfect backdrop for the ceremony, while the outdoor space with its manicured garden, striking waterfall with a rock garden and romantic pond completed the setting for this unforgettable day. At the entrance of the church, two asymmetrical arches rich with pampas grass in white and brown tones and another arch adorned with dried wheat, roses, baby’s breath, and ranunculus instantly introduced the boho spirit of the celebration, while the reception tables were styled with arrangements of pampas grass and dried botanicals in shades of white and brown paired with white roses and baby’s breath. The exceptional catering by Food and Style elevated the evening with flavors that delighted every guest, while the bride glowed in an A line sweetheart gown featuring an airy glitter tulle skirt and a corset style bodice with straps and embroidery by Primalicia Bridal Designers, a choice she told us was without a doubt the best she made. Their story began back in their school years when they experienced their first relationship in middle school, only to reconnect at the end of 2019 and remain inseparable ever since, with the proposal taking place in Arachova even though, as they shared with us, they had already decided to walk through life together. «My favorite moment of the wedding was the dance with Thanos, my father, and our friends», the bride shared, and we cannot get enough of reliving every beautiful image from this wonderful wedding!

«We have known each other almost our whole lives. From our school years, when we had our first relationship in middle school, until the end of 2019 when our paths crossed again. Since then we have been inseparable. After a wonderful trip to Astypalaia, I found out I was pregnant, and a little later in Arachova the proposal came. In truth, we had already decided to spend our entire lives together.»
«My wedding dress from Primalicia Bridal Designers was A line with a corset bodice and subtle glitter, giving off a romantic and airy feel. I chose to remove the lining and keep only the tulle so my silhouette would show softly. At the same time, I decided it would not have a train and would be cut at heel height so I could enjoy it comfortably all night without ever needing to take it off. It was, without a doubt, the best choice I made!»
«For our wedding decoration we chose a romantic yet minimal aesthetic. White and brown pampas grass was the main element, bringing a bohemian mood to the space with natural elegance and effortless beauty. We stayed within soft earthy tones, creating an atmosphere that felt warm, bright, and harmonious, perfectly reflecting our style and aesthetic. I think everything turned out exactly as we had imagined!»
My advice to a bride who is now planning her wedding is to have a clear plan from the very beginning. Draw inspiration from blogs and photos so you can form a clear picture of how you want your wedding to feel, then stay true to that vision without losing your way along the journey.
Vivian , Bride
«Trust your instinct in every decision and remember that not all opinions carry the same weight. What matters most is what truly represents you and your partner. At the same time, keep open and meaningful communication with your husband, because when there is understanding and love, everything will turn out perfectly in the end.»
