Hilltop hotel, Hanioti in Greece. We had always known this was the place we would get married, our second home, a place where we come to unwind and see our lifelong friends. Little did we know how amazing our day would actually be.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The planning of the day was made stress-free by Kostas, one of the owners of the hotel.. He was on hand every time I messaged and reassured me everytime I had a Bridezilla moment! The morning of the wedding arrived and very untraditionally, David and myself spent the night before together so we could gather with friends on the morning and share a beer&#8230; the excitement and nerves were building. I am so glad we did it this way, we got to share extra memories with our little boy Albert, who is two. He too was very excited for mammy and daddy&#8217;s &#8216;party&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The staff were fantastic, arranging all of the decor which looked beautiful. The setting was just perfect, with sea views we couldn&#8217;t have asked for more. At midday I kissed David goodbye, knowing the next time I see him, we would be getting married!!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2030\" src=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1152\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_382-Medium-1144x763.jpg 1144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1152px) 100vw, 1152px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Off I went with the bridesmaids to get ready. Kostas swiftly arrives with a bottle of champagne for us to enjoy. Then at 2.30pm, our photographer Zois arrives and starts snapping away as we get ready.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">3pm and it&#8217;s time to go get married!! My father and I walk down the aisle as our closest friends and family shed a few tears. The ceremony was just beautiful, with everyone commenting after just how lovely it was.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">More photos followed with our brilliant photographer, making us laugh and feel at ease for the most natural pictures.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2031\" src=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1152\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_418-Medium-1144x763.jpg 1144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1152px) 100vw, 1152px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Then we were seated ready for our big Greek wedding meal. I knew the food would be fantastic here but I never imagined just how fabulous it would be. The chef, Chris, has done an amazing job. The food consists of moussaka, pork souvlaki, spit-roasted chicken, every salad in every colour that you can possibly think of to name just a few. It was the best spread of food I have ever seen and everybody commented just how good it was. Chris is a credit to the hotel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Wine and champagne flowed, the staff covering every small detail to ensure our special day was made even more special.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2032\" src=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1152\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/halkidiki-weddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/PIC_454-Medium-1144x763.jpg 1144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1152px) 100vw, 1152px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The DJ arrived and the Greek dancing and singing went on until the early hours of the morning. It truly was without a doubt, the best day of our lives.. I just wish we could do it all again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, for two years we have planned our &#8216;dream day&#8217;. Hilltop hotel, Hanioti in Greece.
