Romantic summer wedding at an estate in Athens | Penelope & Alexandros

A warm summer evening in Athens, Alexandros and Penelope said 'I do' in a garden filled with palm trees and the scent of eucalyptus. The estate’s small chapel was embraced by a wreath of pink roses and lisianthus, while the golden chairs and the pool created a relaxed, romantic setting. The bride chose a soft blush-nude dress with 3D flowers and shimmering details that played beautifully with the light, and the groom a light grey suit with a blue tie — a duo of elegance that perfectly matched the mood of the day.

The ceremony took place in front of the chapel, with white candles and floral arrangements in blush hues framing the crowns. Smiles, emotional glances, and the gentle Athenian afternoon set the tone, before the couple walked through their friends to the garden reception. Penelope’s bouquet, in tones from dusty rose to fuchsia, brought vibrancy to the romantic palette.

At the reception, the tables were dressed with low floral arrangements and candles, while the three-tier white cake with a delicate nude ribbon and flowers continued the clean aesthetic of the decor. Their first dance was accompanied by fountain fireworks, and the dance floor filled early with genuine cheer — from the playful 'dragging' by the couple’s friends to the wild dance moments under the garden string lights.

The celebration was sensitively captured by BRIGHT BRIDE PHOTOGRAPHY, with photos that harness the golden sunset and the movement of the evening to tell their story.
