We were following Chic and Stylish Weddings while planning our wedding, and through it, we found our wedding planner Claire from Lefkas Weddings.

"Clare at Lefkas Weddings was amazing, and her whole team, including Maxeen, were fantastic. The day couldn't have gone more smoothly, and that was because of all their hard work and their understanding of our vision perfectly. Also, the owner of the villa was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I wouldn't have changed a thing, and that was all down to them taking the time to get to know us, as well as their experience and expertise. We couldn't have done it without them. I would 100% recommend using a wedding planner. "

From Lefkas Weddings: "David and Laura, from the UK, chose the stunning island of Lefkada, Greece, for their intimate villa micro wedding in May 2024. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, they celebrated their love in a picturesque setting at Villa Tempestini. The ceremony took place on a terrace with a panoramic sea view, showcasing the islands of Meganisi and Kalamos and the Greek mainland in the distance. The setting was beautifully enhanced by two elegant flower urns, filled white hydrangeas, roses, aster, and delphiniums and Laura's bouquet featured exquisite white peonies, roses, and eucalyptus. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a champagne drinks reception accompanied by a live guitarist, chatting and enjoying the music before the groom gave a heartfelt speech and thanked everyone for travelling for their special day."

"The evening was filled with personal moments that touched everyone's hearts. A humorous poem about David and Laura's love story, read by the mother of the bride and father of the groom, brought laughter and smiles at the ceremony. Later, the emotional father of the bride's speech at dinner left no dry eye in the room. Dinner was a highlight of the evening, featuring a long table with hanging overhead bulbs that lit the al fresco dining beautifully. The table was adorned with a green leafy garland, candles and gold accents. The catering team ensured that every detail was perfect, presenting a beautifully curated Grazing Table dinner that delighted everyone. It was exactly the evening that our couple envisioned, focused on delicious food, fine wine, and great conversation, rather than a big party, as they planned to host a larger reception in the UK later in the year." Lefkas Weddings shared with us.

As the day goes so fast, it was nice to be able to look back at videos, as it's easy to miss little details, so it would have been nice to have a videographer to capture these moments. I would also recommend planning something for the day after the wedding. We loved catching up with our family and friends the day after and reflecting on the day.

"My advice for the future brides, "We didn't think we wanted a videographer or a photographer because we wanted a small, intimate wedding that felt relaxed, and we didn't want the intrusion of external people being present. Maxeen, our photographer, felt like a welcome guest on the day, and she was a pleasure to have around..."
