While in a romantic trip in Krabi Thailand 1st April 2016 Chris
proposed to Stacey . They stayed together for 16 months and they decided to
celebrate their wedding in Santorini in a wonderful, romantic
place at the rim of the caldera at sunset time . The wedding took place
in July 2017 and 53 guests attended the civil ceremony.
The
wedding theme was romantic bird cage and they were placed in all
reception tables, wish book and candy table and they were full with
lilac, cream, white, pink, silver colors flowers.
The
Bridal bouquet was off white , blush and lilac roses
There
were 2 Bridesmaids, and they wore the Corwin
Multi Tie dress from Coast in Lavender. Stacey picked Lavender as it was her
Nan’s favorite color so that there would be a part of her at our wedding.

There were also 2 groomsman and 1 best man. Kev (Best man) Dave and Craig were groomsman. They wore a blue suit from Charles Tyrwhitt London. The suit was very light weight but formal so perfect for a Santorini warm wedding and the look Chris wanted.

Stacey's designer
of her dress was San Patrick Barcelona and was called ‘Sandrine’ I actually
bought the dress in Dubai when I was on my own in ‘The Wedding Shop’, but I had
previously been to London with my Mum to look for a dress and I had found the
style that suited me ‘Mermaid/trumpet’ so I just had to find the dress. I fell
in love with the ruffles at the bottom of my dress, it sold it for me. I tried
on about 35 dresses before I found the one.

The
bride wore a hair piece and earrings from ‘Ivory and Co’ it is a
bridal range from the John Lewis department store. They were elegant
and fitted our romantic look we wanted for the wedding.
Stacey's
hair was Hollywood waves. The morning of the wedding, Stacey
decided not to wear her veil as she loved her hair so much and wanted it
on show.The make up had a fresh look with pink lips to fit the romantic
theme of the wedding.

The
wedding ceremony took place in one of the most stunning venues in Santorini
Gem. The couple has chosen this place because of the location, price and the
fact we could have both the ceremony and reception in one place and they let us
extend for 2 extra hours from 3pm. We also liked that guests did not have to
rent rooms there as it was only a venue. The color palette was light pink mixed with levander

As
per Stacey the most memorable moments were : seeing Chris for the first time down the aisle and dancing with
her Dad to ‘You are the Sunshine of my Life’ and the first dance
with Chris ‘At Last’ Etta James and this was the perfect match with the
fireworks blowing in the sky of Santorini

The
favorite part of the wedding was having all families and friends in one place
sharing their wedding day with them. Also the Greek dancers, the musicians the
Greek food and the fireworks made this wedding unique and special for the
couple and their guests .
Here
are some questions we asked the bride and we think you can get benefits from
her advise
Did anything funny or unusual happen at your wedding? During Chris’ speech when he was
acknowledging absent family, he accidentaly ‘killed off’ one of my uncles who
was sat at one of the wedding tables – my Uncle Andrew is still alive it was my
uncle Allan that had passed away. Chris said it was ‘Andrew” Andrew luckily
made a joke of it and all the guests laughed so much!.
The couple after their wedding for honeymoon they went to Singapore and Bali – we stayed in a perfected honeymoon hotel in Bali called ‘The Bale’ in Nusa Dua we had our own private villa with a pool. The Fullerton hotel in Singapore was also amazing!

I want to say thank to my wedding planner Marryme in Greece for all
her help, from designing the wedding, finding the right vendors, legal document
support, pre wedding meetings during our initial visit, during our stay in
Santorini and the whole wedding day management and coordination and her
personal touch to make sure that everything will be as planned
Below is an advise form the bride which I believe is worth reading and
taking into consideration while you are planning your destination wedding in
Santorini island Greece
"Plan well in advance – I started doing a lot the year before the wedding so I had time at the end to spend on detail. Best choice I made getting and extending the videographer 2 more hours to film the dancers and fireworks."
