Red Inspired Wedding

The colour Red! Full of vitality, joy, festivity, an inspired color in itself. A red inspired wedding theme can make you feel like a fairytale princess.

No need to say that when a couple chooses this colour for their wedding they intend to have a blast for their special day! From the styling of the table up until the bride’s accessories, everything can match up to wonderful red tones that can brighten up every single detail.

As a wedding photographer, I was delighted working with amazing vendors that make this photo-shoot so enjoyable. This styled photo-shoot inspired by this colour was meant to give ideas for your special day and present to you extraordinary vendors that can make your day amazing and stress-free.

The entire styled photo-shoot was excellently organized by Nena, the founder of StyleConcept.gr

Destination weddings in Greece and the Greek Islands are Style Concept’s specialty. Sure, it’s not the only type of weddings and events they can plan and style, but it’s where their creativity and passion really shine, sparkle, and glimmer. We sure were dazzled with their styling ideas in this wedding photo-shoot at Laas Estate. Her outstanding ideas engaged all our five senses and produced warm feelings of admiration.

Laas Estate in Red

The Homeric word “Laas” means stone. According to Greek mythology, Deucalion and Pyrrha created Laa, the most remarkable of all the prehistoric cities of Laconia, by throwing stones behind them. The Laas Estate naturally draws its name from the homonymous ancient Homeric word, placing emphasis on stone as the primary material used in its construction.

Nowadays, the creators of the Laas Estate built in Peania a separate multiplex that stands apart from everything you knew of reception halls. The owners of the Laas Estate began landscaping with certain core values in mind: Their love for nature, a respect of ecological balance, and the support of traditional Greek products. If we add to those values the unique touch an artist imbues in their creations, the result is a magical place; one ideally suited to house the most beautiful moments of your life.

Personal time, effort and passion are the keywords that shaped the final outcome of the Laas Estate. All the wood used in its construction was chestnut from Mount Athos. The stone came from the natural sediment of the estate itself.

The paving slabs were brought from Kastanitsa of Arcadia, while the accent stones around the pool came from a traditional kiln of Zakynthos. Naturally, only ecologically-safe paint was used. Moreover, the latest advances in the field of bioclimatic interior design and construction were used for the heating, cooling, lighting and the optical clarity of the windows. Various kinds of fruit, cherry, almond, cypress, cedar and mulberry trees were planted around the Estate, while the lowest level hosts organically-grown vineyards.

So, apart from enjoying the three different levels of the estate, you can follow the cobblestone paths that lead you through the vineyards, relax in the beauty of nature, all the while taking advantage of the great asset of the Laas Estate: the stunning and unobstructed view of Peania, Markopoulo, the plains of Mesogeia, the Airport and the Evian Gulf. The dreamy location, the breathtaking, panoramic views, the beautiful nooks through the estate, the unique ecological approach and the direct contact with nature, all guides you through a nostalgic journey back in time. If you want the finest moments of your life to be accommodated in a place that exudes the aura of love, you need only choose the Laas Estate. (Source: www.ktimalaas.gr)

Dipnosofistirion

It was in the middle of 90s when Takis Christofileas, his younger brother Dimitris Christofileas, and their cousin Diomedes Kapsalis founded the ‘Dipnosofistirion Catering’. Inspired by the symposiums in ancient Greece they set a goal to create something truly unique in the area of catering.

The «menu» proposed dedicated effort, careful production, attention to details, unnegotiable standards and ingredients of the finest quality. Always acting as a reference point, Mani in Southern Peloponnese (their birthplace) has blessed them with gastronomy values and rare food principles, such as tradition, pure raw materials, independent manufacturers, personified services from real people and deep knowledge. All these characteristics have become the basic ingredients of the successful «recipe» giving to the ‘Dipnosofistirion Catering’ its remarkable reputation.

All three share the same vision: The quality, the Hellenic tradition, authenticity, originality, sincerity and confidence to transform any social event, dinner or gathering in a unique experience, in a ritual that will delight all the senses and promote food as an enjoyable process of socialization that has to do with the soul rather thαn the stomach.
