Rustic Summer Wedding in Crete with Dried Flowers | Jodie & Michael

By Eleni Balkouli @Love4Wed

Sometimes we get to see such beautiful weddings with heartfelt moments that we just can’t wait to share with you! Well, case in point, Jodie and Michael’s destination wedding in Greece is just one of them! This lovely couple got married in Crete and as you also see, they picked the perfect spot for their ceremony! We just loved everything from the rustic details with olive leaves and dried flowers to the relaxed atmosphere of the wedding reception. Every beautiful decorative detail effortlessly tied in the natural surroundings, just as the bride wanted it to be: «It was important to me to have something pretty yet simple that worked effortlessly with the beauty of Agreco Farm. The location and venue are stunning alone, and so I wanted to compliment this, without being too distracting.». Enjoy every single moment!

«We met when we were 18 in a suit shop, we were both working part-time while studying. We became great friends and didn’t realize that we both had feelings beyond friendship. After around 5 years of friendship, we finally declared our feelings for one another! Michael proposed to me in Athens, on Filopappou Hill looking over the Acropolis and views of Athens. », the bride shared with us.

«Our wedding was meant to take place on the 1st of June 2020, and we had 4 different wedding dates before we ended getting married on the 19th of June 2022! I think I had planned most of the details of our wedding before following blogs, but I now take inspiration from Chic and Stylish Weddings as a wedding photographer myself! »

«Probably sitting down for our meal and listening to the heartfelt speeches our family and friends had written for us was my favorite moment. That was very special. We also had our son Oscar with us, he was nearly 5 months old on the wedding day and he wouldn’t have been there on our original wedding date in 2020 so that was very special having him there with us. Though we were very tired new parents! And generally, just sharing the day with family and friends on such a magical day in such a perfect place. »

«My wedding dress was by Rembo Styling, they do very pretty simple dresses with beautiful lace details. I bought my dress in 2019 and got married in 2022 after having a baby! And I still loved it after all this. »

«My advice to a bride-to-be is get a wedding planner! We didn’t use a planner to co-ordinate everything on the day. Nikki from NM EVENTS was there for our ceremony and was a huge help during this time preparing us and time keeping, and overall support. I wish we had her for the whole day! »
