From a Garden Ceremony to a Palace Rave, All in 48 Hours!

May 24 . 2025

Ready to rethink what a wedding can be?This wasn’t just a wedding, it was a whole vibe. Two days of pure magic, meaning, and major party energy. Imagine starting with a garden religious ceremony set in a symbolic circle then heading into a vintage-meets-botanical ceremony that felt like stepping into a dream. And just when you thought it couldn’t get better, the wedding reception kept the love going strong.

It all started under open skies, where nature wasn’t just the backdrop, it was part of the story. This religious ceremony took a twist with a circular seating layout that felt more like a soulful gathering than a formal ceremony. Picture this: golden hour glow, trees swaying, soft blooms all around, and a couple signing their vows in a spot that looked like the forest had saved it just for them. Romantic? Definitely.

The next day, the official wedding took place, and every detail spoke of curated nostalgia with a green twist. The bride wore a vintage-inspired gown that was all about soft elegance and storybook charm. Instead of a traditional floral bouquet, she held a one-of-a-kind accessory piece that added to the sense of old-world romance, reimagined.

The entire setup embraced a vintage garden aesthetic: layered greens, aged textures, muted tones, and thoughtful details that made it feel like you were walking into an era gone by. It was romantic, rooted, and totally distinct.

Guests were first greeted at a chic welcome area, where flowing drinks and stylish bites set the tone for what was about to unfold. Then came the moment: the entrance. The groom made his way in with an entrance worthy of a movie scene, instantly raising the energy. But just when you thought it couldn’t get better, the palace lit up with a jaw-dropping 3D projection across Sursock’s façade, paving the way for the bride’s grand, mesmerizing arrival. Total goosebumps.

A second after party followed, and it came with a venue switch and a total mood change. The bride stepped out in her second look: sleek, cool, and made for movement. The vibe? Edgy, unexpected, and borderline rave. Dim lights, high energy, fast food stations, and that ‘you had to be there’ kind of atmosphere that made it clear: this wasn’t just a party, it was their party.
