When Chanel and Niko first met on a chilly December night in 2021, it was supposed to be her final Hinge date. Both felt the urge to cancel and stay cozy at home, but a sudden power outage at Niko’s place pushed him to meet her instead. What started as a casual evening turned into an unexpected connection that neither anticipated. Fast forward a year, on the same date, Niko proposed, setting off a whirlwind romance that led to a stunning Fall wedding just nine months later.
Their celebration at Chateau Vaudreuil focused on their love itself—no elaborate themes needed. Chanel, a creative spirit, wanted everyone to experience the authenticity and simplicity of their relationship and love story. Chanel’s stunning satin gown with an oversized bow, paired with white gloves, perfectly encapsulated her personality and style, making her look radiant on her special day–a vision of elegance that captured everyone’s attention.
A particularly touching moment on their wedding day, was when Chanel’s Uncle Giuliano officiated their ceremony. His presence added a heartfelt dimension, merging familial bonds with their romantic vows. As Chanel and Niko exchanged promises, it felt as if the world outside faded, leaving only their intimate moment in focus, surrounded by loved ones who cheered them on, celebrating their unique journey together.
Their first dance to “Unchained Melody” was a beautiful prelude to a night filled with laughter and love. Family hugs during heartfelt moments, dancing with her mom to “Forever Young,” and framed photos of their grandparents added layers of sentimentality to the celebration, reminding everyone of the enduring power of love and cherished memories.
With laughter, tears, and a shared love for Italian and Greek traditions, Chanel and Niko’s wedding was a perfect reflection of their journey. From custom napkins to vibrant florals, every detail spoke to their story and the lives they will continue to build together. It was a day of genuine connection, and I was honoured to capture such a significant chapter in their lives. Here’s to their continued adventure together!
