Have you ever dreamed of having an engagement shoot of beautiful pictures in the olive groves of a sun filled, Greek island; capturing authentic feelings in a real life postcard setting?

With destination photographer Andrea Rufener we all boarded Nikos and Martha’s lovingly restored VW camper van and headed to the stunning west coast of Lefkada to shoot this boho mood celebration. It was a fun and relaxed couple of hours at near sunset, as we wandered through the olive groves and the along the sands of Pefkoulia beach, capturing moments as they happened.

We happily obliged with their request to decorate the vintage VW camper van and designed a window garland of pink roses, dusty miller and greenery.

The bouquet was one of my all time favourites, a bursting mix of summer flowers to resemble a posy picked in the fields. It included soft pink alstroemeria and tiny wax flowers, cream roses and hypericum berries, marguerite daisies, limonium and wondeful strands of lilac lavender.

Let's talk about that view! From our villa terrace Let's talk about that view! From our villa terrace we had a panorama of three islands; Lefkada, Skorpios, Madouri and the Greek mainland. 

There are gorgeous views from every coast on Meganisi and @exclusivemeganisi has a superb selection of luxury villas for you and your guests.

Vathy is a picturesque village on Meganisi island. Vathy is a picturesque village on Meganisi island. Stroll around the promenade, taste the local delicacies at one of the many fish tavernas… Adapt yourself to the slow rhythm of the island!

ᴡʜᴇʀᴇ ɪs ᴍᴇɢᴀɴɪsɪ?
Meganisi is a beautiful little island located between Lefkada and the west coast of the Greek mainland.  Meganisi island boasts an unspoiled beauty, so it is perfect for relaxing holidays! 

Keen to protect the island's charm, the Municipality has allowed tourism to touch the island carefully and accommodation is mainly found in luxury villas nestled amongst the olive tree hillsides. 

The island’s beaches are secluded and unspoilt. Some of them can be reached on foot while others can be accessed only by boat. For those seeking chilled vibes the island has two beach bars where you can while away the day on a comfortable sunbed with a cocktail and your book...

A lot of emphasis is placed on the bride’s perf A lot of emphasis is placed on the bride’s perfume, but let's talk about the groom today! Finding the perfect grooms fragrance will help to add to the atmosphere of your big day.

ᴀ ғᴇᴡ ᴛᴏᴘ ᴅᴇsᴛɪɴᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴛɪᴘs 

• ᴡᴇᴀʀ ᴛʜᴇ sᴀᴍᴇ sᴄᴇɴᴛ
It may sound unusual but there are some gorgeous unisex fragrances available, and by wearing the same scent you will enhance your sense of unity and avoid the possibility of clashes. #hisandhers
☆ Try Jo Malone - Calvin Klein - Tom Ford - D&G

• ᴄʜᴏᴏsᴇ sᴏᴍᴇᴛʜɪɴɢ ʟɪɢʜᴛ 
A light fresh fragrance will usually work better than something heavier or musky, especially in the warm Greek sunshine. A heavier scent can be too overpowering as there will be a variety of wedding day smells to clash with; notably the flowers! #scentsofsummer

• ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ɪᴛ ᴄʟᴀsɪᴄ
Try to avoid fragrence trends.If everyone is wearing the latest fragrance from a well known designer, you probably don’t want your groom to wear it on your wedding day. The chances are the best man or some of the male guests, will be wearing it too, which means you won’t automatically associate it with your new husband. Look for something classic that you will still love in twenty years ♡ #classicistimeless

• ᴄᴏᴏʀᴅɪɴᴀᴛᴇ ʜɪs ᴘʀᴏᴅᴜᴄᴛs
Applying fragrance in layers will make it more enduring, so try to find the shower gel, aftershave balm, or cleansing lotion to match. If that isn’t possible make sure that he uses unscented products on the morning of the wedding so that his fragrance can take centre stage.
