Mykonos wedding photographer
Our first wedding of the season and it was this fabulous Mykonos wedding!
After spending the past few springs away from Greece, this felt so good. Starting off with this Mykonos villa wedding, made us realise how much we love being there. The month of May is beautiful in Greece, perfect spring wedding weather with a touch of heat.
We arrived to Mykonos from Santorini and stayed in a small family run hotel overlooking the Chora and the Mykonos windmills. As we knew that the wedding party will continue in town on the day, the location was perfect, walkable distance from town. And then again, it was 10 minute drive to the wedding villa. One thing we learnt, you don’t want to be driving around the town looking for somewhere to park.
Mykonian landscape is mesmerising! The ancient rocks and boulders seem to be planted there as the witnesses of the passing of time.
Kate and Andy chose a villa set above the Super Paradise beach for their intimate wedding.
The two villas were perfect for them and their friends as they enjoyed their stay there. A huge pool on a hill top dominated the front of the villa.
We came to meet them the day before the wedding day and found everyone lounging by the pool. But not on the wedding day! Everyone was inside enjoying the coolness.
The views from the villas over the beach and the sea were beautiful.
Kate chose a simple yet luxurious Grace Loves Lace dress that was perfect for the setting and the weather.
On our arrival, the girls started slowly to get ready.
Andy passed a note and a gift to Kate while she was having her hair done. As her friends were in the room, the terrace overlooking the Super Paradise beach seemed perfect for some private time.
The adjoining villa was occupied by groom and his groomsmen. This came handy as there was no need to worry that our Mykonos bride will get seen before the ceremony time.
The guests moved to the back of the villa and let Kate and Andy have their special time for the first-look.
Our lovely bride hid again in the villa where a very important person arrived! Kate’s little nephew who was a ring bearer came to see her and ran into her arms. Such a beautiful sight to see! He was all up for his important duty on the day!
For their wedding ceremony, Kate and Andy chose a little terrace surrounded by the walls that screamed Mykonos and Cycladic islands from the stone they were built from.
When it was time for the ceremony, guests joined Andy at the terrace and were chatting as the time came. The ceremony was officiated by their dear friend.
As the ceremony filled with laugher and a few tears finished, the newlyweds exited the aisle, followed by the guests that sought shade from the afternoon Mykonos sun.
Everyone approached to congratulate as the glasses of champagne were handed out.
As the ring bearer finished the duty, he was ready for the toast with his auntie – the bride and her girls.
The surrounding area of this Mykonos villa wedding was just stunning! Very rugged and yet so pretty. We found a little spot on the slope below that was perfect to photograph our couple.
As best men’s speeches finished, we found ourselves in a nearby field just in time to catch the last of the sunlight on the day. The field was covered in wild herbs, some grass and thorny bushes and made us all laugh most of the time for it was not the easiest of the walks! Kate and Andy didn’t mind it and we so love the result of the golden hour time we had with them.
An unfortunate event gave a special character to the wedding cake – Kate and Andy both accidentally managed to poke their fingers into it! It was obviously delicious as it was approved by a little cake connoisseur!
The evening continued in Mykonos Chora where everyone took to the dance floor at Scarpa.
Our favourite bar when in town was the perfect venue for a their wedding party. Kate changed into a gorgeous little number to dance a night away!
Thank you dear Kate and Andy for having us there during your Mykonos wedding celebration! We absolutely loved being with you all. You all made this day very special for us!
