After a day at work, Kristina came home to find her house filled with flowers and love letters leading all the way to the living room where she found her partner Elias with big light up carnival lights that read “Grow old with me.”
Kristina says, “We had our ceremony in a Catholic Church, with a Lebanese priest that spoke Greek. It was a wonderful blending of cultures and the traditions of both our families.”
For the wedding, the couple wanted it to feel like “an elegant autumn garden.” To achieve this, they had gorgeous wood, gold touches and reds, pinks and purples flowers to add warmth.
The couple’s wedding featured a champagne tower, a roving magician, three wedding cakes and a custom neon sign in pink that read, “You are my favourite.”
For Kristina, the highlight of the wedding came right at the end.
“Instead of an exit tunnel, we had our guests throw glitter confetti, rose petals and dried lavender at us as we danced out of the reception to ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I’m Yours.’ It was SO much fun and the perfect end to the day – we’ll never forget it.”
