Middle school sweethearts, Ally and Jack, got engaged on a family trip to the town of Telluride when Jack proposed to Ally in a secluded area overlooking the San Juan Mountain Range. Following the proposal, the couple embarked on a horse drawn carriage ride and enjoyed the picturesque canvas of Colorado's winter wonderland. Ultimately, Ally and Jack envisioned their wedding day in Santorini, Greece amidst its crystal-clear waters and iconic, white-washed architecture, which provided a breathtaking backdrop for a wedding celebration planned with the help of Rocabella Weddings and captured on camera by Kayla Baptista Photography and Feel Your Films.
Bride Ally wore the "Huntleigh" gown designed by Jane Hill Bridal from Elle James Bridal. The gown was accessorized with set of pearl detailed gloves to complete the look. Ally was drawn to Jane Hill due to her ability to create modern yet timeless pieces that exuded dramatic simplicity. She loved the two looks that the "Huntleigh" gown offered, and the aesthetic captured exactly what she was looking for her wedding day!
Kendra K Beauty and Kayla Baptista Photography traveled all the way from the couple's hometown to do hair and makeup and take their wedding photos! The couple shared, "It was amazing to have people that we have known for years fly all the way to Greece to be a part of our wedding day!"

The ceremony and reception unfold on a cliffside terrace at Rocabella Santorini Hotel & Spa with their closest family and friends, overlooking the captivating Aegean Sea. During the ceremony, a white garden rose with a photo was placed in an empty chair in honor of the bride's mother who passed in 2019. And after saying "I do," the couple walked back down the aisle to "Signed, Sealed, Delivered."
The selection of white garden roses, baby’s breath, hydrangeas, and delphinium for wedding flowers from Bloom De Fleur paired perfectly with the elegant gold chandeliers from Santorini Events, creating a luxurious ambiance.
The couple envisioned the menu to be a Greek dining experience in combination with some of their favorite foods. The 3-course dinner from Rocabella Santorini Hotel & Spa started with tzatziki, hummus, and spicy feta cheese dip served with crispy pita bread. The second course was a green mesclun salad with roasted beets, Roquefort cheese, grapes, and honey rosemary vinaigrette. The final course was grilled chicken marinated in Greek herbs and light soy, served with baby potatoes, roasted broccoli, and parmesan flakes.
During the couple's choreographed first dance, a display of cold spark fountains surrounded the dance floor, creating a memorable and radiant glow.
The couple chose a 3-tier cake covered in white fondant and encrusted with sails designed by Alexandras Cakes. Guests were given a selection of cake flavors including chocolate Oreo and vanilla filled with cream cheese.
"Let your wedding day reflect who you are as a couple, from the vows to the playlist. Don't sweat the small stuff, and focus on each other and the love you share. Your wedding day is about celebrating the two of you, so embrace it fully and create memories that will last a lifetime!"
