Romantic Pastel Lefkada Elopement – Ellie & Jesse

01/09/201712/03/2021

Ellie and Jesse travelled across the world for their wonderfully romantic elopement in the Ionian island of Lefkada, Greece.

The private, waterside location was sourced especially for this adventurous couple to create the Bride’s dream of a fairy light garden by the sea.

The only sound was the water gently lapping at the side of the deck as Ellie made her way down the steps to meet Jesse under a gazebo of flowers. It was intimate and romantic.

Lefkada was a relaxing break after the bustle of sight seeing in Athens and before they jetted off again for the next part of their extended holiday around the Greek islands and Europe together. The spectacular view of the ceremony and its setting fulfilled their shared love of the ocean.

” I chose the restaurant wharf from the options Claire selected for us because I knew we both needed to be able to see the water. We both grew up on the Great Barrier Reef. My husband spent months at a time as a child on the ocean and I on an island so the water makes us feel at home.” ~Bride, Ellie.

Ellie’s dress incorporated a few different styles. She wanted something sexy yet simple. Finding it hard to find a white dress without added detail and embellishments, she commissioned a handcrafted gown from Peta C with a slight flair and short train. It was simple, timeless and understated.

Her hair was worn in loose waves and fastened with a comb of blush pink peonies and roses that also surrounded the Protea flowers in her bouquet. These are very similar to the Warratah, the Australian national flower and was included as a touching tribute to her sisters. Though they wanted an intimate elopement, Ellie and Jesse are also big family people and her sisters are her best friends, so eloping was a huge decision as it meant she was without them.

In the décor we used a lot of florals and fairy lights to create a feeling of intimacy and enchantment. Using an image of an enchanted garden that Ellie sent to me, the team created hanging gardens overflowing with flowers, structured around a gazebo. It was a designed in two parts, so the couple saw one floral display during the ceremony and the final look was a surprise. Waving them off on a luxury speedboat cruise around the islands, my team quickly go into action, hanging lanterns, opening fairy lights and filling the deck with lanterns. When they returned it was a candlelit paradise!

” I couldn’t have achieved our dream day without Lefkas Weddings. You need a planner/helper/elf! If you are thinking about it, don’t think, just do it! Claire is so amazing and always cool, calm and collected. Our day was completely stress free and magical. “ ~Ellie & Jesse

It's the time of year we are receiving many excited wedding enquiries. Before you hit that "send" button on the contact form, take a deep breath and think about what you both truly need and envision for your big day.

Crafting the perfect wedding request takes time and consideration. It's not just about the venue, date, or menu – it's about capturing your love story and turning it into a magical experience.

Ask each other: 
▪︎ How many guests are we planning for? 
▪︎ What are our non-negotiables? 
▪︎ What ambiance do we want? 
▪︎ Do we already have a theme or colour scheme in mind?
▪︎ Are there any unique traditions either of us want to incorporate?
▪︎ What is our ideal budget?

We appreciate all these key details you give us and we use them to consider the best ideas and locations for your day, which means I can give you a helpful answer to your enquiry, tailored to you. 

Gᴇᴛ Iɴ Tᴏᴜᴄʜ
Share your thoughts with us! We're here to turn your dreams into reality. Let's start your Greek island journey together. ♡
