Romantic Mediterranean Elopement in Naxos, Greece

 

Naxos is the next big wedding destination, another gem in the Aegean perfect for an elopement or a beautiful wedding day. This three-day intimate wedding celebration made us all fall in love with the Mediterranean charm of the island and how romantic it can be for a destination event. Greece does not compare with anywhere else in the world, the sky in the Aegean is always welcoming, always bright with a particular kind of blue, one you can find only in Greece. The couple chose Naxos island to tie the knot, and I think it fit their style perfectly!

I am thrilled to have spent some days in such a beautiful locale. Ayiopetra sits above a breathtaking olive grove facing the archaic temple of Demeter, goddess of earthly fertility. The complex boasts a calming ambiance, offering open spaces and minimalist touches. This new wave of ethical constructing in the Cyclades the last couple of years is raising the bar in hospitality and aesthetics! A place to consider upon visiting Naxos, the greenest island of the Cyclades. The Cyclades are so rich in culture and antiquity, I can't think of a better way to give your guests a culture trip than to organize a prewedding tour of the island! Celebrating with experiences tailored for you and immersing yourselves in a cultural trip before or after the wedding! Many of my couples say that taking the time to enjoy their time in Greece is one of the best things they did together and what gave such a unique flavor to their wedding celebration! 

Taking advantage of the seasonal blooms and indigenous flora of the island, MBW Events definitely went beyond and above with incorporating prickly pears to the styling, a sign that the hot days of summer are indeed here! Just perfect and subtly bohemian! The wedding ceremony took place in the middle of an olive grove, a perfect place to seal a love story forever - especially the groves surrounding Ayiopetra. The days we spent in Naxos for this beautiful elopement were simply divine and the reason why I love being a wedding videographer in Greece. Inspiration hides everywhere!
