James & Claire’s Santorini Wedding!
James & Claire got married at the stunning Santorini Winery & Vineyard on the 12th June 2017. Here is look at their love story!
How did you both meet?
It all started 15 years ago!
I was 17 and James was 20. I was with my friend who had just passed her driving test and we were cruising around South Shields sea front in her first car.
Where we are from, this is something that the young ones do. Casually driving around and going to car meets. I met James in South Shields where we continued to meet up with friends and then finally started dating. Who would think that 15 years later we would be married and owning our second home together with our 6-year-old dog Molly!
How did James Propose?
After years of hoping that one day I’d get to wear that dress that every girl dreams of, in 2014 myself and James booked a trip to New York! New York was always on our bucket list, so we made the plans and off we went. We had talked about getting married but it was always just “one day”.
Five days into our trip we had already visited the usual hot spots, Empire State, Top of the Rock, so we decided to book a sunset river cruise along the River Hudson.
Now for anyone that knows my husband they will describe James in two words - “laid back”.
I was not expecting what came next! We were again “cruising” along the River Hudson, this time on a boat not in a car, and James casually says to me “what do you fancy doing tomorrow then, how about we go shopping? We’ve not been to the shops over here yet. How about we buy you that ring you’ve wanted!”
This was said in such a casual way, as James does, that It took me a while and a couple of questions to understand what he meant!
He then asked me the big question I’d been longing to hear for so many years, and of course I said YES!!! We celebrated on the boat as we sailed up the Hudson under Brooklyn Bridge with the biggest smile on our faces. We kept this quiet for the whole trip and didn’t tell our families until we got back to the UK.
The following day, as James promised, we went shopping for the ring and boy was this overwhelming. For anyone that has been along the Diamond District in NYC, you will know what I mean. Diamonds everywhere and I mean everywhere.
Finally, we found the ring and I still can’t stop looking at it to this day!
Why did you choose to get married in Santorini?
Our love of Greece is what attracted us to Santorini, it was an Island that we had never been to before. In June 2016, we visited Santorini for one week.
We hired a car and toured the whole Island, the breath-taking views are what made us fall in love with the island.
At this point we had already booked our venues, so we decided to go to the sunset wine tasting at Santo Winery and booked a meal at Pyrgos Restaurant beforehand. Both venues are amazing, they have the most beautiful surroundings and views. We couldn’t wait for June 2017.
The most important thing for us on our wedding day was having our close family and friends with us. We always wanted a small and intimate wedding, the details never really mattered too much to us. The venues and views were simply enough.
Tell us about the theme for your wedding?
We choose a vintage theme for our wedding and my now Mother in law Linda played a very special part in making our invites and some of the decorations for our wedding.
The night before our wedding we decided to ask all of our family and friends to a pre-wedding meal. We ate Greek food and listened to live Greek music.
What was your favourite moment of the day?
Saying “I DO” was my favourite moment of the day and also seeing my now Husband Greek dancing as he never dances. He was so into it and so were all of our family and friends.
It was perfect from start to finish, everything we could have imagined and more.
Do you have any tips for couples thinking of getting married abroad?
Our advice to any couples thinking about getting married abroad would be to use Ionian Weddings. The whole experience from start to finish was flawless and completely stress free. From our first contact to meeting our co-ordinators on the Island we couldn’t have asked for anything more from them. Always on hand to answer any questions or uncertainties that we had. If we could do it all over again we definitely would.

Schade, dass es keine Duft-Fotos gibt! Der Geruch von Eukalyptus, Rosmarin, Lavendel, Thymian und Zitronen, der einem beim Betreten des tollen Wintergartens des Haverbeckhofs entgegen strömte, war ein umwerfend!! Ich mag diesem einfachen #greenery Look. Schlicht, elegant und doch besonders. #bohohochzeit #hochzeit #bohowedding #greenerywedding #greenery🌿 #greenery_scenery #greeneryscenery #mediterranehochzeit #mediterraneanwedding #tabledecoration #weddings #weddingideas #weddingvenue #weddingdecor #weddingtable #weddingtabledecor #tischdekoration #tischdeko #tischdekohochzeit (hier: Landhaus Haverbeckhof)

Colette & Fraser’s Tuscany Wedding
Colette & Fraser got married on the 1st September 2017 at a stunning & traditional Tuscan Villa...
How did you both meet?
A mutual friend set us up.
Tell us about the Proposal?
We got engaged on holiday in Florida. Fraser wanted to go on a walk on the beach but I just wanted to go to the restaurant. He was really nervous and decided just to propose in the restaurant to get it over with ha! So I ruined his sunset proposal on the beach.
What attracted you to Tuscany as a wedding destination?
I had never been to Tuscany but have always wanted to visit. To be fair, Pisa airport and the fact that the flights were extremely cheap for our guests was one factor. Ionian Weddings really helped us with regards to location. And wine, wine, wine!
Did the venue meet your expectations?
The venue and the host were outstanding. We couldn’t have imagined just how beautiful the setting was. What we loved about the day was how relaxed it felt. The Villa host was fantastic. We stayed the night before and she kept us entertained!
What was most important to you both for your wedding day?
That our guests had a great time – and they did! They’ve all said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to.
Tell us about the theme of your wedding day?
Myself and Fraser are quite laid back. We didn’t really have a theme as such.
Did you do anything special with your guests leading up to your wedding?
We met up the night after for dinner in Viareggio. Myself, my mum and dad and my bridesmaids all stayed at the Villa the night before. We had dinner and wine tasting which was absolutely gorgeous
What was your favourite moment from the day?
My favourite moment was when we arrived at the Villa and I saw the tables and the setting, and watching our guests reactions to this! Also the food…ooh my god the food!!!! And getting married……of course!
What advice would you give other couples thinking of having a wedding in Tuscany?
I would tell them to do it! Get it booked. It will take all the stress out of planning a wedding and all your friends will think you are a genius! I can’t thank everyone at Ionian Weddings enough.
Our wedding was perfection!
