“We met during a training course many years ago. From the first day we became very good friends which then developed into a deeper relationship. Johan proposed on Valentine’s Day two years ago. First, he took me to a luxurious hotel in Stockholm where we got to enjoy ourselves to the maximum. The next day he took me to a cliff overlooking almost all of Stockholm. I thought we were going to have a coffee there but instead Johan got down on his knees and asked the big question!”, the bride shared with us.

“The wedding was absolutely fantastic down to the smallest detail mainly thanks to Bonet Flower from Kassandra. The bridal bouquet, all the decoration, details in general were well thought out. We wanted elegant decoration with natural colors, but with elements of light blue so that it would match our bridal crew. The staff listened carefully to our requests and were available throughout the process. Despite many requests on our part and when we forgot a few details on the day of the wedding, there was nothing the staff couldn’t solve. Without Bonet Flowers this wouldn’t have been so magical!”

“Our first dance together was my favorite moment. It was an intimate moment where we managed to shut out the surroundings and just feel ourselves and our love. An extra touch to the whole thing was that we had an entire ocean behind us”.

“My idea from the beginning was to have a big dress with a long train. After all, it is once (hopefully) you get the opportunity to wear such a big dress. I tried on several dresses and then realized that it wasn’t me and that I wasn’t comfortable in the big ones. It turned out to be a slim long dress with a train. A dress that I immediately felt that this is it. This is me. I also had to take into account the place we were getting married in and it wouldn’t have gone well with a big dress either. I also chose to rent a dress because it was the most advantageous and the dress was not something I wanted to save for the future. The practical thing about renting was that the dress was sewn to my measurements, washed and details such as hair ornaments, shawl, bag and more were included”.
