“We were helped by our wonderful coordinator Tatiana Belianko-Mathiodaki and her agency Wedding Crete. I just showed her my wedding dress and Tatiana realized what we needed. The result exceeded all expectations. Wedding Crete and decorator Jenny Vakonaki were responsible for the decoration. It was an arch on the beach, decorated in boho style. It was very nice and perfect for us”.

“We found inspiration on Pinterest and on Instagram. My bouquet consisted of beautiful white roses tied with beautiful ribbons. It is worth noting that despite the hot weather, the bouquet lasted until our return home to Belarus. It was very unfortunate that I could not take it home”.

“My wedding dress was of the Belarusian brand, wedding house Kuraje, model Linda. I was attracted by the lush sleeves and an abundance of handwork, and of course an incredible train that looked amazing in photos”.
