REAL LIFE BRIDE
BECCA & JOSEF
A Santorini wedding of dreams.
SHARE YOUR LOVE STORY
We met 7 years ago, a friend at work said she knew somebody who would be perfect for me. We added each other on Instagram but nothing really came of it. One night, I was out with all my friends and we ended up at the same bar and have spent nearly every day together since.
Inspiration & style of your wedding
I didn’t really have an inspiration or style for the wedding at all. The views were incredible so we kept it very minimalistic and just picked things we loved.
VENUE DETAILS
We got married at Rocabella in Santorini Greece, the whole day just felt like a complete dream. It was everything I could ever have wanted and more.
FINDING THE DRESS, WAS IT LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?
100% love at first sight. I tried 6 dresses on. Me, my Mum and Mother in law all agreed on this dress. I took my best friend 2 weeks later and tried all 6 dresses on for her without telling her which one was my favourite. As soon as I walked out she said ‘that’s 100% the one’
HIGHLIGHTS OF YOUR DAY
My husband organises everything, he’s amazing. He organised the whole wedding. On the wedding morning, I realised I’d accidentally took the rings. We got to the alter, said our vows and they asked for the rings. Every body stared at the best man who stared at me, who realised I’d left them in the hotel room. It sums me up perfectly and everybody just laughed.
YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM TO FUTURE BRIDES
Soak up every second, it goes by too fast! So don’t spend your whole day taking pictures. We had 20 minutes for pictures then the rest were taken of us completely off guard just enjoying ourself. Everything you are worrying about now you won’t even care on the day!
