we Met Through Michael’s Stepsister, Who Was My High School Friend. She Invited Me To One Of His Soccer Games, And I Couldn’t Resist Teasing Him When He Missed A Goal. He Fired Back With Some Flirty Banter, And From That Moment, There Was A Spark. A Few Months Later, His Stepsister Invited Me To A Raptors Game Because They Had An Extra Ticket. After That, We Started Talking All The Time, Quickly Becoming Close Friends. Over Five Months, Those Feelings Of Friendship Deepened, And We Finally Admitted How We Felt About Each Other.

taking The Next Step Was Easy Because It Just Felt Right. Even Before We Got Engaged, We Knew We Wanted To Get Married In The Bahamas. Michael Had Always Dreamed Of A Destination Wedding, While I Had Always Pictured Myself Walking Down The Aisle Of An Orthodox Church. When We Found Out There Was A Greek Church In The Bahamas, We Knew It Was Perfect—a Beautiful Blend Of Both Our Dreams. It Was A Decision That Reflected Not Just Our Love For Each Other, But Also The Way We’ve Always Found The Perfect Balance Together.

Bringing Our Traditions To The Bahamas Was Something That Was Also Very Important To Us. But We Didn’t Know What To Expect Trying To Orchestrate A Traditional Orthodox Wedding In This Tropical Paradise, But The Experience Surpassed Our Expectations.

from The Charming Blue And White Greek Church To Our Toronto Band Playing Lively Greek And Macedonian Melodies, Every Detail Resonated With Our Heritage. Even The Traditional Pig Dance Was Infused With Bahamian Flair, Creating A Unique Blend Of Cultures. Our Heartfelt Gratitude Goes To Our Dedicated Team, Whose Efforts Turned Our Vision Into A Breathtaking Reality. Choosing Sapodilla As Our Reception Venue Was One Of The Best Decisions We Made For Our Wedding. The Estate’s Breathtaking Ambiance Provided The Perfect Backdrop For Our Celebration.

working With Our Own Wedding Planner Fidan From Designed Dream, Who Worked Closely With The Venue Coordinator And All Other Vendors Had Made The Planning Process Seamless, Helping Us Navigate All The Pieces For Our Special Day. An Added Bonus Was Seeing The Staff Genuinely Excited And Engaged During Our Traditional Customs Which Added An Extra Layer Of Joy To The Experience.

our Wedding Wasn’t Just About Celebrating Our Love; It Was About Honoring How Our Journey Began. My Partner And I Connected Through A Shared Passion For Traveling, Discovering New Cultures, And Creating Memories Around The World. Our First Vacation Together Just Two Short Months After We Started Dating- A Bold Choice Indeed! We Continued To Travel Several Times A Year, And To No Surprise, Got Engaged In Italy Amidst The Timeless Charm Of Tuscany's Stone Villas And Sprawling Vineyards.

when It Came Time To Plan Our Wedding, We Knew We Wanted It To Reflect The Beauty And Spirit Of Adventure That Brought Us Together. However, We Also Understood That This Would Be A Huge Challenge For Us, And We Would Need Extensive Help. Fidan At Designed Dream Was Able To Make This Vision A Reality And Organized A Truly Unforgettable Adventure: An Intimate Destination Wedding In The Heart Of The Mexican Jungle.

thanks To Designed Dream Events, All Our Amazing Vendors Came Together To Create An Incredibly Stylish Event That Surpassed Our Expectations. The Day Went Off Without A Hitch, Which Is A Direct Reflection Of Our Wedding Planner’s Keen Attention To Detail And Coordination.

the Location Was A Dream—a Lush, Green Paradise Where Nature Felt Like An Honored Guest At Our Celebration. Arcadia Events Tulum Had The Perfect Space For Us, Featuring Stunning Stone Architecture And Sculptures. The Venue Felt Like The Perfect Bridge Between Two Chapters Of Our Love Story. The Stone Archway At Our Ceremony Echoed The Timeless Charm Of Tuscany’s Old Stone Walls Against A Backdrop Of Greenery, While Being Beautifully Rooted In The Vibrant Heart Of The Mayan Jungle. The Ceremony Felt Almost Dreamlike, And Time Stood Still. As The Sun Filtered Through The Creeping Vines And Trees Of The Jungle, We Exchanged Vows Surrounded By Our Closest Loved Ones.

our Reception Carried The Same Magical Energy. Rustic Decor And Ceramic Art Blended Harmoniously With The Jungle’s Raw Beauty, And Guests Enjoyed High-quality Authentic Mexican Cuisine Paired With Tropical Cocktails. 

a Live Saxophone Player Ariel Brought Incredible Vibrancy To The Evening, Seamlessly Transitioning From Smooth, Romantic Melodies During Dinner To Lively Tunes That Got Everyone Dancing Later In The Night. To Make The Experience Truly Special, He Even Learned New Songs From Our Favourite Musician Specifically For Us—creating A Personalized Soundtrack That Captured The Essence Of Who We Are As A Couple. Our Jungle Wedding Was A Celebration Of Love, Nature, And The Stories That Brought Us Here.
