I can’t believe we had to wait until the day of the wedding to meet these two! We tried to get together sooner, but with them living out of town and our schedules never lining up, we just had to wait (it was worth it!). Elleni is a joy to be around, which is made obvious by her sweet friends who she has obviously known for a very long time. The bridal suite at the new Pearl in the Wild was absolutely gorgeous, so forgive me for “getting ready” picture overload! The pair definitely has a sense of humor as they “iced” their bridal party just before heading to the church! (what better way to enjoy an hour long Greek ceremony than after chugging a Smirnoff Ice?) We’re so excited to share this huge sneak peek, lots more to come!

Sharing your wedding date with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle called for a royal tea! And the cutest signage that said “Sorry, Elleni saved the date first!”
John’s crew hard at work! Janice & Marina getting Elleni’s dress ready:
The First Look every bride dreams of! Look at Demetri’s reaction!
I rarely post so many images from the ceremony, but this one had so many beautiful moments!
They transformed this space!
John has become quite famous for his lounge areas! It’s such a nice touch for guests who want to be near the action, but don’t necessarily want to dance.
Darin’s gorgeous arrangements:
What a cool space!
You know it’s a good party when there is money flying everywhere!
