_The Ceremony

The Catholic ceremony took place at Saint Jacob’s Cathedral in the Old city of Corfu.
Saint Jacob’s Catholic Church is one of the most beautiful 16th-century architectural creations one can find in the old town of Corfu. The facade of the Cathedral is similar to Venetian temples, so typically baroque.

His family and loved ones accompanied Ernesto, and a group of traditionally dressed Corfian musicians walked him to the church. There was a feeling that the whole town was attending in one way or another.
In anticipation, Marina was also accompanied by her father and the traditional Corfian guitarists, playing in the ambience of these extraordinary moments.
We always take a step back when the bride’s father hands the bride to the groom. This moment is absolutely captivating.

The ceremony has begun, and passages from Holy Bible are being read by the priest while the couple exchanges vows of eternal love.
After the bride and groom’s grand exit and the traditional rice toss, we whisked them away for some alone time, and the guests headed to the Triklino Estate for the elegant reception party to follow.

We could not resist taking photographs of the newlyweds in this historic town with so much of the Venetian grace.

Triklino Estate is where nature, luxury and history meet. Offering total serenity in acres of centenary olive groves, cypress and oak trees, a true fairy tale.
The decor was everything one could imagine. But more. Victoria Martini and her team did an outstanding job filling the space with fairy lights, elegant centrepieces and chandeliers.
The floral arrangements were stunning. Delicate flowers were placed on the table surrounds and coverings. It was a woodland fairytale forest brought to life in a way that would convince even the most sceptical of guests that fairytales do exist.

_About the next day

This Greek summer day found this beautiful unity of people sharing lunch by the seaside. The sense of completeness and satisfaction was overwhelming.
