As They Say “I Do”

Nestled within the captivating embrace of Island Art and Taste, Laura and Ryan’s wedding ceremony in a picturesque setting seamlessly blends charm, romance, and the timeless ambiance of the Greek Islands. The venue is home to a variety of gardens, dining terraces, and lounge areas and is framed with Mediterranean flowers and filled with sea breezes. The ceremony commenced with an unforgettable moment with the bride making a breathtaking entrance. Against the backdrop of a floral masterpiece crafted by Fiorentino Luxury Floral Services, the couple exchanged vows, sealing their commitment to each other. The carefully curated setting provided the perfect canvas for the couple to seal their commitment to each other. Following the exchange of vows, the newlyweds shared intimate and tender moments with the awe-inspiring bougainvillea as their backdrop. Since the planners at Nai I Do Weddings wanted to opt for a decor that would resonate with Laura’s dynamic personality, they drew inspiration from the characteristic bougainvillea and lush greeneries of the local coastline.

More Than Just A Table, It’s A Canvas Of Love

Following the ceremony, the guests were seated in the dining area, which was a gorgeous garden providing them with breathtaking views of the surrounding island. The decorations were based on the natural ambiance and incorporated the characteristic colors of Greek florals and the region’s vegetation. The planners wanted a bright dynamic palette without however pushing away the natural beauty of the location. The primary colors used included shades of peach, apricot, hot pink, and light pink. Even up to the day prior to the wedding, against all probabilities, the weather forecast showed a light rain, during the ceremony hours. Although it did not affect the celebrations, a massive canopy tent was placed and adorned with thousands of fairy lights above the dining area to incorporate the structure in the design and ambiance and use it as a decorative platform too. The catering was a mixed Greek and International buffet with a variety of options for local starters, salads, and mains including fish and live BBQ station, sides, and a dessert stand.

Love Is In The Air, And We Are Here To Party

No wedding is complete without the sweet touch of a cake. Following a breathtaking ceremony, Laura and Ryan made a stylish entrance into the exquisite dining area, where an elegant white cake stood as a centerpiece, awaiting their gracious presence.

Amidst the cheers and applause, they shared an intimate moment- their first dance, sealing the day with a moment that would linger in their hearts forever.
