«We met on St. Patrick’s day 7 years ago, he was with one of my friends that I graduated high school with. He then invited me to a St. Patrick’s day party that weekend, and they rest is history. He proposed to me at the top of Governor Dick’s observation tower while we were on a hike during the changing of autumn leaves. », bride shared with us.

«I had the best wedding planner: Riviera Blu Events! I gave her a palette of colors I was thinking of, and she put her own twist on them to make it unique. I told her I was looking for a boho glam look which incorporated roses and the elegance of the table setting, while keeping a boho vibe. We would video chat and Xenia would get some input from me and then came back with ideas that we talked about in her presentation. I loved everything about the table setting, it looked so gorgeous! The way the decor was placed around the Ios Club made it look so welcoming and stylish. Even though it was a popular color scheme for weddings, I feel Xenia and her team made it look and feel magically catered to me. Also, all of us sitting at one table made me feel more connected to everyone that traveled so far to be with us on our special day. »

«The site Chic and Stylish Weddings helped me with ideas of how I wanted my wedding to look, and the pictures that I wanted. I know that I needed an expert that was in Greece to help my vision come to life. »

«My most favorite moment was getting ready for the wedding. My makeup artist was exceptional. I don’t like being the center of attention, so feeling confident in my dress was the best feeling.»

«I had been scouring the internet day in and day out for a wedding dress. I know that I wanted an A-line dress with it widening around the hips. I went to multiple bridal shows and stores before I settled on trying to find a certain dress that I saw on Pinterest. It was so unique that I had to try it on. I found it at a bridal store about an hour away and bought it off the rack. It was on SALE! I took that as a sign that it was meant to be. The intricate lace pattern with a touch of sparkle was perfect for a sunset wedding while giving off the boho glam feel. »

«Ios is such a beautiful island to get married on! Our day was beyond magical. All the locals were so helpful and friendly. Our officiant, Timothy, lives on Ios and made our stay and wedding that much better. »

The brides’ advice: «Hire a wedding planner! There are always going to be bumps in the road, but having a whole team to work on problem solving and brainstorming is everything.»
