Glamorous summer wedding at a winery in Athens | Maria & Nikolas

Maria and Nikolas chose Athens for their big day, but sought a setting that felt like an escape. Markou Vineyards, with its stone courtyards, olive trees and the warm light of dusk, became the ideal backdrop for a glamorous summer wedding with the atmosphere of an elegant celebration. From the preparation to the ceremony, the couple’s smiles and the friends who surrounded them filled the space with an unpretentious, abiding joy.

The bride appeared in a romantic off-shoulder gown, with a sheer corset bodice and scattered pearls that caught the light, while her hair in loose waves was adorned with discreet pearly accessories. She carried a bouquet in a neutral palette with ivory roses, eucalyptus and soft textures of pampas and bunny tails – ideal inspiration for a minimal, natural bouquet. Nikolas, in a three-piece beige suit with a champagne silk bow tie and monogrammed cufflinks, gave the most contemporary masculine touch, matching the venue’s palette.

The ceremony was held in the winery’s courtyard, with stone backdrops and a discreet arrangement of dried flowers embracing the entrance. The couple’s children, with little wreaths and treats, spread smiles, while the golden light of sunset made the champagne and ivory glow in every frame. The day’s documentation by Owl Photo Studio highlighted all that soft, summery radiance and the small, tender moments that compose a winery wedding in the heart of Attica.

At the reception, the venue’s wooden textures and earthy tones kept the same elegant rhythm: linens, candles and details in nude shades set a scene that invited guests to stay late. A wedding at Markou Vineyards that proves how harmoniously the glamorous style blends with the naturalness of the vineyard and offers ample inspiration for chic decor with dried flowers in a summer palette.
