Santorini elopement to remember! Jenna and Eric’s escapade to Santorini was our final farewell to the 2021 season.
It was a mid October wedding. This time of year is especially lovely. The light and the atmosphere uniquely change, enhancing the dramatic scenery.
This morning in particular began with torrential rain. Obviously, we prayed for this to end. On the approach to Oia, where the wedding was to take place, a realisation hit us. Surprisingly, this side of the island had remained altogether dry!
In the distance, the storm clouds were passing. At the same time, the sun was breaking.
Once together with Jenna and Eric, we finally felt the relief. Regardless of the storm going around the island, they were both certainly calm. At least, on the surface they seemed so. Soon, we all began to enjoy the preparations indeed.
During our pre wedding meeting, Jenna expressed her vision of their first look.
The rooftop of their suite at Rhenia’s suites was undeniably perfect for this special moment. Now, on the day, in front of the spectacular caldera views, Jenna approached Eric. Their first look was perched high above the village and the sea below thus making for a breathtaking setting.
The famous blue domes were adjacent to their private balcony. As we had plenty of time before the ceremony, we took the opportunity to walk there. Whenever we get this chance, it is always very special. On this occasion, Jenna and Eric just looked so serene with the iconic background.
We were back to the suite in time for Jenna and Eric to freshen up before the ceremony.
The ceremony on their balcony was particularly beautiful. Its simplicity coupled with the wide expanse of the open landscape truly expressed the magic of the island. We instantly get excited at such opportunities.
Now that the ceremony was over, without delay, we continued to use the warm setting light on the rooftops. At this point, they were both really in the moment together.
Eventually, we continued to their dinner terrace where we watched the light slowly drop in the distance.
At this instant, we realized why we love what we do. The romance, the natural surroundings, the calmness and beauty all without a doubt complement each other. With this in mind, we feel privileged to be able to capture these special moments.
