ABOUT
A wedding in Glyfada for Elena and Christos. Ceremony at the Holy Church of Saint Nicholas in Glyfada, reception at Golf Privé. Photography and film by arChive Visual Storytellers.

The wedding

Golf Privé is set on a green estate in Glyfada, along the Athens Riviera, with both indoor halls and outdoor gardens near the sea. The Manor House and Colonial spaces give the venue a unique character, thoughtful and elegant, without being showy.

Christos proposed to Elena on Milos. He knelt and recited the third chapter of Elytis's Monogramma to her, a poem about the sea and about two people who become more complete when they find each other. As he explained, the key word in the poem is the sea. He was the lighthouse, and she was the harbour.

The ceremony took place at the Holy Church of Saint Nicholas in Glyfada. The reception continued at Golf Privé, where the evening reflected the details Elena and Christos had chosen: a dress by Vassilis Zoulias, flowers from Emotion Flowers, invitations by Prototypon, and a thoughtful mix of elements that made the wedding feel carefully planned from the start.

Our approach

Before the wedding day, we got to know Elena and Christos well enough to understand what they wanted from their celebration. The Elytis proposal on Milos was not just a small detail; it showed us exactly who they are and what the day meant to them. Our approach to photography and film grew from that understanding.
 
At Golf Privé, understanding how the light changes throughout the day makes a big difference. The gardens and indoor spaces each need their own approach, and moving between the ceremony and reception at two locations took careful planning ahead of time.
