Iconic, colorful, unique

 

Emma & Rob are what they call couple goals. Together since forever, they have grown into becoming two amazing personalities together. Their wedding could only represent that. Laid back, happy, filled with love and oh-so-stylish! The ideal couple for a Kefalonia Wedding!

Their wedding location, the exquisite villa Maravillosa, was simply THE backdrop for their event. This historical, Kefalonian, pre-earthquake, elite, rustic, traditional house has a character of its own. The colors, style and old feeling complimented and accented every single decorative detail that the couple picked. Perfect stylistic balance for a perfectly stylish couple.

 

The ceremony was simply out of this world. The guests boarded a boat early in the morning and were taken to the most spectacular chapel, right on the water. Saint Spriridon chapel was the perfect fit. The views were just breathtaking. The scenery there, stunning. Just the thing  for a magical Kefalonia wedding.

 

A sea wood arch decorated with peonies, David Austen garden roses and wildflowers in stunning color combinations set the mood and tone for this celebration. Benetatos Flowers outdid themselves on the arrangements, the bouquet, the aisle, every single detail. With that and the water as a backdrop, what else did these two need?

 

The guests are settled in their seats, Rob awaits anxiously by Len, the celebrant. Then the speedboat arrives, bringing Emma and her bridesmaids. She looks simply stunning! Wildflowers and peonies on a crown make her face glow, while her bouquet reflects her: colorful, playful, beautiful. The perfect Kefalonia bride.

The “I dos” were heard, tears were shed and then… time for the legalities! This family managed to take the most boring part of a wedding and make it fun! They all raided the town hall and witnessed the signatures and their official declaration as husband and wife! Lovely!

Cotton Candy, their amazing photographer, took them on a private photo shoot, featuring what else? A vintage American Beetle, decorated with wildflowers. The images speak for themselves, don’t they? This Kefalonia Wedding had the perfect background!

 

The reception was something out of a fairy tale. Fairy lights twinkled and glowed, lanterns moved with the wind, colorful wildflowers set the tone and all that in the gorgeous backyard of a traditional Kefalonian mansion.

This reception setting comes to show that all you need is a good sense of taste and the ability to express yourself. Bamboo chairs, wooden tables, golden cutlery, a vintage photo booth, colors, love and style. What else?

One of the most beautiful moments in this Kefalonia wedding was the cake cutting. A chocolate naked sponge cake, decorated with fruits and flowers. Glikon Esti Ntina’s Bakery really created a work of art there, reflecting the style of Emma and Rob. As for the flavor? Even better than the looks, if that is possible.

 

They had an amazing time that night. An amazing jazz duo set the mood, the food by Mythos Catering was amazing, spirits were high.

 

A highlight? When the bride’s brother sang their first dance song. Not a dry eye in the house.

 

Emma & Rob, may your life together be as beautiful as your Kefalonia wedding.
