So you’re probably all well-aware of how majorly trending pampas grass installs are at the moment, right? It’s so gorgy to see in weddings, especially for those that aren’t into heavy florals but want something much less traditional than greenery. Of course, we sure love it paired with both, like in this bohemian folk inspired editorial coming to us from one of our new guide members, Jacobo Pachón, and The 12 Events.

The team set up at a private villa in Cape Sounio, Athens, bringing in tons of ideas—like this crazy rad pampas moon at the altar—that look as if they were pulled straight from a folktale. Spoiler alert: the whole thing is pretty darn magical…

This wedding editorial brought to life by the talented team of ‘The 12 Events was inspired by the lore and magic of famous folkloric tales. It was amazing to witness this visual narrative unfold in layers and textures of foliage, precious metals, clocks and mirrors, bold lavish florals matched with pastels and spellbinding art de la table with unconventional accents.

Designer Dimitris Petrou was behind both this enchanting blue + pink floral bridal gown and the groom’s look.

From the couple’s beach ceremony in front of a lighted moon made of pampas grass to the alternative blue-jay dress of the bride, and from the luxurious decadent ambiance to the temptation of ornate candy and cakes, everything was invented with the same rule in mind: there are no rules in how maximal, or extravagant a wedding can be. It is all about having fun and realizing our dreams. A couple’s wedding photography is storytelling so there is hardly a reason why this story can’t be a fairytale itself.
