Their intimate couple’s shoot took place along the breathtaking Athenian Riviera. While the iconic Temple of Poseidon in Sounio was in the background. It was a location as timeless as their love.
Couple’s Shoot Attire
Our fearless bride, who follows her heart rather than conventional rules, stunned in a short feather wedding dress by Mairi Mparola, adorned with delicate feathers. She completed her bold, fashion-heroine, look with vintage skull diamond earrings by Vivienne Westwood and the edgy hairstyling and makeup artistry of Michalis Tsotras. Her fearless “partner in love” and style, the groom, wore a custom black tux by Sur Mesure, tailor-made in Athens.
It was a mad love synchronicity! The perfect alchemy of this biker couple and the seductive ride along the cliffs of Sounio. This dynamic duo rode together towards their ceremony location where they would seal their eternal love. Embracing the perfect chemistry of love and adventure on their way to eternal romance.
Elopement Ceremony Location
Their intimate celebration by the sea, at the iconic Agios Nikolaos church was styled and designed by Anna of Kiss from Fleur. With her fashion-forward styling and eye for romance and collaboration with Ellwed, the church was transformed into a ceremony location brimming with modern, fashion-forward elegance. Personal touches of this intimate wedding inspiration are everywhere, fitting with this young couple’s rebellious charms and their love for raw Greece.
With wild, romantic florals by Petridis LV and rustic wooden chairs from Rakor Ceremonies, this weathered Athenian chapel became the perfect setting for an elegant, intimate and unforgettable celebration. Located just a few minutes from the famous Grand Resort Lagonissi, it was the ideal elopement location.
Though small in size, the personal details and thoughtful styling made it a powerful, character-filled elopement. And the organically arranged florals as insertions distract from the fact of missing guests.
Dress Change: Elopement Wedding Gown and Groom’s Suit
The bride and groom changed their looks from edgy to romantic while keeping true to their values. She wore a stunning hand-painted, open-back, custom-made wedding gown by Mairi Mparola, featuring a statement belt and detachable sleeves adding a dramatic flair to her look. She completed the ensemble with elegant Dior pearl earrings, adding a touch of timeless sophistication.
Meanwhile, the groom awaited her at the church, looking dashing in a tailor-made sand-gray suit by Sur Mesure, perfectly complemented by a unique scarf that added a personal, stylish touch to his attire.
