Elegant gold & mint wedding in Athens |Fani & Thanos

We are completely smitten with elegant mint & gold wedding of Fani and Thanos! The glamorous and yet playful color combination of calming mint and sparkling gold was an excellent choice for such a beautiful spring wedding. All eyes were on the lovely bride in her figure defining  Berta wedding dress: an elegant mermaid style gown in ivory with a guipure lace and an open back. Stunning to say the least…

“We met in Athens 5 years ago, a few days after Thanos’ arrival from Scotland were he was living for the previous 7 years. The wedding proposal took place during a trip to Capri to celebrate my birthday”.

The wedding ceremony was held at the all-white church of St. George, in an area surrounded by pine trees.

Elena Haviara, their wedding planner from Rock Paper Scissors Events, shared with us: “The bride really loves flowers so she made sure there were plenty of them in the church as well as the venue where they had their wedding party, at Dreams in Glyfada. Our impressive dessert table was 4 metres long, was decorated with a big, central floral garland and big bowls with candles, macaron towers from The Sweet Spot and many other sweet treats from Fresh. Also, Cast Expression Photography covered the photographic needs of the wedding and their work really made the guests excited”.

“Generally our wedding day just went by really fast but if I had to pick a few favorite moments, one would be the moment when I was walking up the church stairs and Thanos was waiting there for me… Also when we finished the ceremony and our guests wished for us, we left for the wedding venue and we were alone for the first time as a married couple!”

“Our favorite decorative details were the dessert table with a great  mirror and many impressive candles, the big flower wreath above the dance floor and also the suspended picture frame which was also the backdrop for the photography session of the guests. I also loved the centerpiece of the tables”, the bride has told us.

“Something that really made us happy, was the custom wish book that our photographers have produced, after a special photography session we held for it. Our guests loved the idea and they filled it with their beautiful wishes. It is a great relic from our wedding and I really thank the guys from Cast Expression for their suggestion of this!”

“The best decision was about choosing Elena as our wedding planner. It is a fact that without her help, we wouldn’t have such a great result! It was the first decision we took and it really affected all the rest of decisions we had to take. The assignment of our wedding to a professional really made my life easier and made my decision-making a lot easier in any matter and it also secured the high level of the partners we chose for everything else. Every bride has different wishes and priorities, but generally I would urge a future bride to trust her wedding planner if the wedding budget allows it!”
