This couple created a wildflower meadow for their Santorini wedding
Mary Beth and Andrew’s black-tie wedding at Cavo Ventus Luxury Villa in Santorini was truly one of a kind. From the ceremony full of flowers by Betty Flowers Santorini, to the breathtaking dinner party with snaked mirror tables and candles under hanging florals and chandeliers, the beauty of this wedding with the Greek islands as a backdrop was executed perfectly with the help of Julia and Evita. Keep scrolling to see all of the breath-taking moments captured for the bride and groom by Phosart Photography Cinematography.
When it's meant to be, it's meant to be
Bride MaryBeth had seen weddings in Santorini on Instagram and was absolutely in love with the idea. After an extensive search for the best venue, planner, and photographer, everything seemed to fall together effortlessly and the stand-out choices for the couple all had overlapping availability in June.

Bringing Vermont-inspired flowers to Greece
The focal-point wedding decor by Betty Flowers Santorini was inspired by flowers native to Vermont, an homage to MaryBeth's home state. Not much else was needed for decor since the venue (on a cliff!) featured glass walls that showed off the picturesque panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea.
Stylish lighting options for a warm glow
What do when the sun goes down? There's no better lighting than candles and chandeliers. Rented arched chandeliers from Multimedia Events lit up the floral table design beginning at twilight and string lights complemented the numerous votives, lighting up the dance floor for the party to continue late into the evening. We'd be remiss not to mention just how good that warm candle lighting is for photos!
Mirrored tables: A surprising luxury detail
Mirrored tables, especially those in unique shapes such as the curved ones chosen for this wedding, are a luxurious way to add that extra special something for your reception design. A mirrored table creates the illusion of even more florals and reflects the warm glow of the candles, which especially stands out as the sun begins to dip down below the horizon.
After-the-fact advice from the bride
"I would absolutely put extra effort into selecting the right wedding planner and photographer," MaryBeth said. "One of those assets will make your vision a reality, and the other will capture it for a lifetime of memories!"
