Not your typical Stockholm wedding. Emily and Chris brought serious style, infectious energy, and a guest list ready to celebrate hard. The idea was to create something that felt bold but personal, something that embraced the grand, historic beauty of the venues without becoming overly polished or formal. It was elegant but down-to-earth. Gilded walls, garden-inspired florals, flowing champagne, and a packed dance floor. This was a celebration that didn’t take itself too seriously and still managed to feel like an absolute showstopper.

Chris popped the question right after a walk with their dog, Axel, in London’s Hyde Park. What seemed like a quiet moment outside Emily’s uncle’s flat turned into a full-blown surprise party inside, complete with friends and family who had flown in from New York just to celebrate. Low-key on the outside, high impact on the inside. Pretty much how these two do everything.

[field title=”Wedding Gown”]Emily wore a custom-made gown that was sleek, sculptural, and completely timeless without trying to be. The silhouette was clean with just the right amount of drama in the train. Paired with a classic veil and simple accessories, the entire look was effortlessly elegant, like something you’d expect at a royal wedding, but with a modern twist that felt entirely her.[/field]

The bridesmaids wore blue-toned gowns in varying silhouettes, giving the bridal party a cohesive yet relaxed look. Nothing too matchy, and definitely not overly formal. The palette played perfectly matched with the warm floral tones, and the styling let each bridesmaid feel like themselves, just a little more dressed up.

[field title=”Food & Drink”]The food at Grand Hôtel Stockholm isn’t just dinner, it’s a whole experience. Guests were treated to a menu inspired by seasonal Nordic flavors, prepared by the award-winning kitchen team behind some of the city’s most iconic dining spots. Each course came out like a small work of art, but never felt fussy. It was the kind of meal that people actually remember, not just because it looked good, but because it brought everyone together in the best way possible.[/field]
[field title=”Florals & Decor”]

The florals were garden-inspired with a modern twist. Soft yellow, warm orange, creamy whites, and muted greens came together in arrangements that looked like they could have been gathered from a late summer field. Nothing too tight or overly styled, just texture, movement, and warmth. The ceremony setup was truly something else. Think wild floral meadows brought indoors. The entire altar was framed with sculptural clusters of blooms that felt organic and immersive without being fussy. Then at the reception, the florals took on a more regal presence. A towering floral wall sat behind the head table, and every dinner table featured Renaissance-inspired urns overflowing with fresh blooms. The glow of candlelight reflected off mirrored walls and chandeliers, making everything feel warm and cinematic. The overall design embraced the grandeur of the venue while still feeling like something personal and alive.

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]

Not your typical Swedish wedding. Think royal-level style, 150 guests, and a dance floor that refused to quit. Not France. Not Italy. Stockholm is doing its thing. It’s Stockholm, the capital of Scandinavia, at its absolute best. Not a château in France. Not a Tuscan villa. This is how you do a destination wedding in Sweden. If you think Stockholm weddings are all about understated minimalism and quiet elegance, Emily and Chris had other plans. Their celebration was a love letter to this city, with a twist. A destination wedding that brought 150 guests together for a weekend packed with style, emotion, and serious energy. Think historic grandeur with a modern edge and not a trace of pretense. The atmosphere was effortless from the start, the kind of energy that carried everyone through from ceremony to last dance without missing a beat. The Ceremony: A Dome, A View, and a Petal Toss That Belongs in a Movie Inside Eric Ericsonhallen, a former church with soaring ceilings and views over the water, Emily and Chris saw each other for the first time from opposite ends of the aisle. No distractions. Just the moment. Live music filled the room as they exchanged vows, and when they made their exit, guests showered them in petals. It was one of those rare, cinematic moments that feel completely unplanned but absolutely perfect. The Reception: Gilded Mirrors, Candlelight, and Champagne That Kept Flowing. Dinner was held in Spegelsalen at the Grand Hôtel, a room that looks like it was built for champagne toasts and long, laughter-filled speeches. Candlelit tables. Crystal chandeliers. Gold-framed everything. But it never felt overdone. It was elegant in a way that invited people in, not made them sit up straighter. The kind of evening where no one checked their phone because real life was better than anything on a screen. The Party: A Masterclass in ‘You Had to Be There’ Once the music started, it never stopped. A live band followed by a DJ. A packed dance floor from the first song to the last. Shoes came off. Ties disappeared. Champagne kept making the rounds. By midnight, it felt like part concert, part celebration, part something you wish you could bottle and replay forever. Some weddings are beautiful. Some are fun. This one was both. And then some.

The seating chart was an absolute showstopper. Designed in the shape of the Grand Hôtel venue itself, it featured custom schnapps shots with each guest’s name and table number. It wasn’t just clever, it was interactive, surprising, and instantly got people talking. No one missed finding their seat, because who’s skipping free schnapps?

[field title=”Special Detail #3″]The drink menus were tennis-themed and totally original. Crafted to reflect Chris’s background and their shared sense of humor. It was one of those details people noticed immediately and kept snapping photos of all night.[/field]
