  A Dream Wedding Journey: From Brazil To Sicily

Imagine A Love Story That Begins In Vibrant Brazil And Finds Its Grand Crescendo In The Sun-kissed Elegance Of Sicily. For One Brazilian Couple, Their Wedding Was More Than Just A Celebration—it Was The Embodiment Of A Dream, A Union Of Cultures, And A Homage To The Timeless Glamour Of The Dolce Vita Era. The Enchanting Town Of Taormina Provided The Perfect Backdrop, Combining Mediterranean Charm With Cinematic Allure.  

    Italy's Ancient Temples Witness Alchemic Marriage

  In The Heart Of Sicily, Amidst The Ancient Grandeur Of The Valley Of The Temples, Antonia And Daren Orchestrated A Wedding That Seamlessly Blended Historical Reverence With Contemporary Values. Their Union, Described As An "alchemic Marriage," Drew Inspiration From Ancient Greek Matrimonial Rites, Creating A Ceremony That Was Both Timeless And Profoundly Personal.  

Ancient Greek Marriage Rituals Reimagined  

The Couple's Commitment To Authenticity Led Them To Incorporate Elements Of Ancient Greek Wedding Customs Into Their Ceremony. Traditionally, Greek Weddings Encompassed A Three-day Event: The Proaulia (pre-wedding Preparations), Gamos (the Wedding Day), And Epaulia (post-wedding Celebrations) 

Antonia And Daren Meticulously Adapted These Rituals, Even Creating A Custom-made Greek Holy Divinity To Preside Over Their Vows, Symbolizing Their Deep Connection To Hellenic Traditions.  

Ceremony Setting: A Bio Pistachio Farm  

Choosing A Bio Pistachio Farm Adjacent To The Valley Of The Temples As Their Venue, Antonia And Daren Honored Sicily's Rich Agricultural Heritage. This Location Offered A Verdant Contrast To The Ancient Stone Structures, Embodying The Union Of Nature And History. The Proximity To The Iconic Temple Of Concordia Provided A Majestic Backdrop, Infusing The Ceremony With An Aura Of Antiquity And Splendor.  

Reception: A Celebration Of Local And Sustainable Choices  

The Reception Was A Testament To The Couple's Dedication To Sustainability And Local Culture. A 100% Slow Food And Wine Menu Was Curated, Featuring Vegan Interpretations Of Sicilian Culinary Delights. The Highlight Was A Vegan Cassata Siciliana, A Traditional Sicilian Cake Reimagined To Align With The Couple's Ethical Choices. This Commitment Not Only Delighted The Palate But Also Supported Local Artisans And Farmers, Reinforcing The Community's Integral Role In The Celebration.  

Ambiance And Aesthetics  

The Wedding's Ambiance Was Meticulously Crafted To Evoke The Elegance Of Ancient Greece. Melodious Strains Of Harpists Playing Greek Music Set A Serene Tone, While A White Dress Code For Guests And Staff Added To The Ethereal Atmosphere. An Imperial Family Table Adorned With A Bougainvillea Runner Introduced Vibrant Hues, Symbolizing Passion And Beauty. The Exclusive Use Of Local Flowers And Produce Not Only Enhanced The Aesthetic Appeal But Also Underscored The Couple's Commitment To Regional Authenticity.  

Antonia And Daren's Wedding Was More Than A Matrimonial Ceremony; It Was A Harmonious Blend Of History, Culture, And Sustainability. By Intertwining Ancient Greek Traditions With Modern Ethical Choices, They Crafted An Unforgettable Celebration That Honored The Past While Embracing The Future.

first Of All, If You Are Here, That Means You Are Engaged, So I Want To Wish You congratulations. This Is An Exciting Time In Your Lives Because You Have Your Entire Wedding (and Then Marriage!) Ahead Of You. This Season Is Fun Because There Are So Many Possibilities, But With Possibility Comes The Unknown. We Here At emerveille Events Want To Provide You With Some Advice For Newly Engaged Couples. 

1. Breathe. There's A Ring On Your Finger And In Less Than Three Seconds, People Around You Are Asking Questions Such As "when's The Wedding?" "what Are Your Wedding Colours?" And "can I Come?" With So Many Questions, You May Feel Like You Are Already Eight Months Behind Wedding Planning, But We Are Here To Tell You That You Are Not. I Have Seen Weddings Planned In Eighteen Months, And I Have Seen Weddings Planned In Three Months. While There Is Wisdom In Having A Planning Timeline To Ensure That You Aren't Overwhelmed And So That You Are Able To Plan A Wedding That Is Representative Of You, There Is No Need To Rush Into Planning The Day After You Are Engaged. my Biggest Piece Of Advice To Engaged Couples Is To Set A Date After The Proposal To Begin Wedding Planning, And To Not Talk About The Wedding Until That Date. that Way, When Family And Friends Come At You With A Million Questions, You Can Tell Them "we Aren't Beginning Planning Until x Date. We Are Enjoying Just Being Engaged Until Then".

2. Make Time For One Another. I Hear Couples Say So Often "we Have Just Turned Our Date Nights Into Wedding Planning Nights!" While That May Be Fun In The Beginning, It Doesn't Take Long Before You And Your Fiancé Realise That You Haven't Had A Non-wedding Related Conversation In Months. If Your Only Time To Have Quality One-on-one Time Together Is One Night A Week, spend Every Other Week As A Date Night And Have Wedding Talk Off Limits, Or Have "no Wedding-talk" Zones, Such As From 6-7pm, During Dinner, Or For The Last Hour Before Bed. this Ensures That You Are Getting Quality Time And Preparing Your Relationship For The Marriage That Follows After The Wedding, Not Just Preparing For The Wedding Day.

3. Hire A Wedding Planner. I Hear It As A Frequent Regret From Couples Who Don't Hire A Wedding Planner (myself Included). There Are Many Unknowns During The Wedding Planning Process, Which Is Absolutely Okay Because This Is Most Likely Your First Time Planning A Wedding. Wedding Planners, Such As emerveille Events, Have Experience Planning Weddings, And Will Be Able To Assist With Creating Timelines, Finding Vendors, And Reassuring You That You Are Doing A Great Job Planning. the Sooner You Hire A Wedding Planner, The More You Will Be Thankful That You Did Not Wait.
