Ktima Emmeleia Wedding in Chersonissos, Crete

AIMEE & ETHAN

Aimee and Ethan’s wedding at Ktima Emmeleia in Chersonissos, Crete was centred around a refined, minimal aesthetic with a strong focus on atmosphere and setting. Held in October, the softer light and slower pace of the season gave the day a calm, considered feel from start to finish.


The styling leaned into clean lines and understated elegance. White florals ran throughout the day, keeping the overall look cohesive and uncluttered, while the bridal party introduced subtle contrast. The bridesmaids wore olive green satin dresses, paired with classic black tuxedos for the groomsmen, creating a balanced, modern palette that worked naturally with the tones of the venue.


The ceremony took place in front of the chapel, framed by bougainvillea, with the setting itself requiring very little additional styling. From a photography perspective, the approach was kept unobtrusive, allowing the day to unfold naturally while maintaining a refined, editorial feel. The result is a collection of images that reflect both the setting and the atmosphere of a Ktima Emmeleia wedding in Crete.
