A dreamy Greek elopement at Melissourgos Tower in hues of autumn
In the heart of Greece, amidst the rustic charm of Pyrgos Melissourgou, a dreamy styled wedding shoot unfolded in a symphony of light pink, orange, and the warm hues of autumn.

Every element created by Greek vendor talent, led by Marietta Androutsou Wedding & Event Design, came together to create an editorial that radiates pure and romantic bliss.

Sweeping, light & airy bridal fashion
Against the backdrop of the tower's weathered elegance, the bride stood resplendent in a couture Anna Anemomilou gown that mirrored the delicate blush of light pink petals. The surrounding landscape, painted in autumn's fiery hues, provided a breathtaking contrast to her bright and airy bridal style perfected with makeup by Vassia Papakonstantinou. We love the billowing sleeves and sweeping textured train of this gown!
The romantic floral motif of the wedding gown created such a whimsical and ethereal quality for the bride's look - perfect for luxuriating in a chaise lounge! Paired with custom floral heels from Savrani Creations and jewelry from SVS Jewellery - she was a vision of a Greek goddess!
The groom was styled in a timeless black tuxedo and accessories from Greek designer Papadogamvros Giorgos, paired with attention-grabbing modern loafers by Kwnstantino Shoes.
A destination venue, perfect for portraits
Pyrgos Melissourgou with its rich history and architectural grandeur, offered more than just a ceremony backdrop, by providing a narrative steeped in history and beauty. As the stylishly-dressed couple wandered through the chateau's garden paths, the tower stood tall, bearing witness to this tale of love.
The photographers Tonia & Theodore Photography and videographer In Oblivion Films aimed to not only capture the visual beauty of the scenes but the emotion and soul of the moment. With a focus on natural lighting, each photograph was a frozen whisper of romance, telling a story of its own.
Standing floral backdrop wedding ceremony
Modern standing florals brought today's trends to the timeless warm-hue backdrop! In a palette of creams, oranges, and pinks - Felicia Floral Design created a ceremony scene that radiated joy. To add to the romance of the moment, string duo Duo Didonne sent elegant notes of music over the air.
