Ancient greece meets minimalism in this chic destination wedding

An avant-garde love story where bold elegance meets minimalist vibes. From atmospheric details to blurred, raw moments, this is love unfiltered, lit only by flashes. Clarissa and Umut’s wedding, designed by Golden Apple Weddings, was a vibrant celebration of love that blended cultures and traditions seamlessly. The bride, originally from the Philippines, and the groom, hailing from Turkey, brought their stylish and spirited personalities from Boston to the picturesque island of Rhodes, Greece. Surrounded by loved ones who traveled from across the globe, their special day was filled with heartfelt moments, laughter, and joy. The ceremony stood out as they exchanged vows infused with traditions from both their heritages, creating a truly unforgettable and deeply emotional experience.

Clarissa’s elegant gown perfectly accentuated her beauty, adding a touch of timeless grace to the day.

Held at the stunning Kallithea Springs, a breathtaking historical monument and architectural masterpiece, the venue set the tone for an extraordinary celebration. Nestled amid crystal-clear waters and natural splendor, it offered a private oasis where guests could immerse themselves in the charm of Rhodes.

The floral arrangements by Kay Creations featured white roses, astilbe, and baby’s breath paired with lush greenery, exuding understated elegance. The tablescapes were equally impressive, blending chic floral designs with rattan wooden chairs and a combination of long and round table settings that reflected the couple’s sophisticated taste. The décor shone with special attention to the dancefloor, which was framed by majestic columns and crowned with a chandelier centerpiece, adding a dazzling focal point for the evening’s festivities.

The celebration was as flavorful as it was beautiful, with signature cocktails including the classic Old Fashioned, a Lavender French 75, and the spicy Tequila Chartreuse. Guests were treated to an entertaining and memorable moment during the espresso martini tower presentation—a highlight of the evening that brought laughter and applause.
