"We met by accident, through mutual friends during a night out. Neither of us was supposed to be there, but our friends dragged us out for a drink. He proposed during our winter holiday in our hotel room. His question took me totally by surprise, I wasn't expecting it, and my first reaction was to start laughing because I thought he was joking. He wasn't, and I later found out that he was planning on proposing for a while. The proposal was simple, sincere, and romantic. No flowers, no candles, no grand gesture...just the two of us in a hotel room, and it was perfect that way. "

My favourite moment was when I started walking towards my fiance, the violinist started playing, and I realized how lucky I was to marry him and to have the most important people with me there. When I saw the beautifully placed chairs and the flower arch where my fiance was waiting for me, that was the moment that I realized that this was really happening. I really am getting married on the beach in Greece.

"When it comes to the decorations and the flowers, I just trusted Maria from Lythos with everything, and I'm so glad I did. I knew from Instagram that she usually does these boho, romantic, and beautiful decorations. I don't remember ever even asking her what she was planning for the decorations or what kind of flowers she would use, she told me what she would decorate, and I just let her do her magic. For the bridal bouquet, I just wanted something simple, classic, and all white, so I thought that you can't go wrong with white roses. I enjoyed everything about the decorations. The ceremony spot on the beach was breathtaking. When I was walking on the beach towards my soon-to-be husband, with a violinist playing in the background, I just kept thinking how perfect everything was. I felt like I was in a fairytale, it was everything I could have hoped for. There wasn't anything I would have changed about the ceremony spot or the venue at Lythos. I loved every single detail and little flower. It was magical."

"My advice is: Find a celebrant and a wedding planner that suit your style and just trust them with everything. I did, and it was the best decision I made. "

"My wedding dress was designed and made here in Finland. I went to my appointment with my mom and aunt. This was the last dress I tried on, and I remember I instantly felt beautiful in it. I was looking for something classic and simple but that would still have a little something. I fell in love with the back and the lace. The hardest part was keeping the dress in the closet at home and not being able to show it to Ville. I wanted him to see me in it so badly."

"Everything was amazing. The photographer, the violinist, the food, the decorations, and the celebrant Sara, who pointed me to Maria from Lythos. Thanks to them, planning a wedding in Greece was so easy... I didn't have to stress about anything."
