Posted by Moscha on March 9th, 2012 | Leave a comment
Last week you had a taste of a beautiful wedding venue in Santorini, Aressana Spa Hotel and Suites and a beautiful lemon inspired cocktail bar. Below you will find some more pictures about this venue and enjoy some of the most beatifull brides who chose Aressana Hotel as their accommodation and wedding reception. Enjoy!
Aressana Spa Hotel and Suites
Hotel Aressana is right in the heart of Fira town, Santorini’s city center. A five star design hotel in every sense, the Aressena Spa Hotel and Suites is a quiet and atmospheric haven, one of those town hotels from which one never ever wants to leave the cocooning privacy of its walls.
Strongly emulating the individuality of this island in the Cyclades, design elements feature geological material sourced from the stones from the volcano.
What about a wedding reception dinner by the pool?
Spoil yourselves before your i’do’s with Aressana’s signature massages and indulge into the jaguzzi and heated relax beds!

This is one of our mostly favorite venues for several reasons:
- right next to the most beautiful central orthodox church of Santorini Mitropolis church, as well as next to Agios Minas traditional white washed chapel (convenient for an orthodox wedding).
- Suitable for a Cocktail hour on the outer veranda.
-A Beautiful wedding venue in Santorini suitable for a wedding reception up to 40 people at their Ifestioni restaurant.
-very convenient for families (not many stairs), large swimming pool, spa and gym.

White Grecian Wedding
A glamorous “white inspired” wedding which has been featured on Lela New York, One Stylish Bride and Two Bright Lights described as “My Big Fat Traditional Greek Wedding” a “Candlelight Wedding in Greece” and a “White Grecian Wedding”. The Bride has chosen Aressana Hotel for the accommodation of her family and friends as well as for her preparation on the day of the wedding. Mitropolis Church is right next to Aressana Hotel so Nicoleta did make a grande entrance!

We had the opportunity to coordinate beautiful weddings, meet so many couples in love ready to share their new lives together, get to know their wonderful families and create numerous & unique wedding themes.
Feeling lucky and blessed to have been able to work with couples from so many different cultural backgrounds, blending their customs and personalities, to create unique celebrations. One of these fetes was our first Indian Wedding which was our first blog post for this year.
Most importantly our new website Stella And Moscha as well as our new blog have just been launched and we are more than excited to share it with you!
We’re so thankful that our wonderful couples and colleagues have supported us and it’s a thrill to be able to celebrate it with our friends!
We would like to end this post with one of our biggest accomplishments this year, being featured in Style me Pretty.
It is a true honor that one of the weddings we organized this year has been described as “All designed and planned to absolute perfection by Weddings in Santorini (now Stella and Moscha), this is one soiree that is guaranteed to leave you smiling (and humming love songs) for the rest of your week”.

New Kid on The Blog
Welcome to Stella & Moscha’s Greek Island Wedding Inspirations! We’re so excited about our first ever blog, and can’t wait to share the stories of all our wonderful couples and their Greek Island fetes.
My name is Moscha and will be posting all inspiring ideas for your Greek island fete and so much more.
We’ve had the honor of planning so many amazing weddings this year that it’s been hard to choose which to feature. Since this is our first official blog post, we decided it would be fitting to show you Stella & Moscha’s very first Indian wedding, which we organized this summer.
Dimitri and Seema were married at Rocabella hotel, and had 2 different weddings. The first day they had the Indian wedding and the second day the Greek Civil wedding. They were both designed by our in house wedding designer Evangelia Mendrinou.
They chose Santorini as their location because it spoke to their style and personality. We had so much fun helping them to plan a wedding that captured their style, honored tradition, and highlighted their location!
On the day of their Indian wedding early in the morning they had a spiritual ceremony which was held by the bride’s family. It was so emotional and inspiring. Here are some preview pictures.

Here you can have a look on the wedding gallery and their wedding video . We are still pending the full wedding Gallery from the amazing photographers so stay tuned for some more!
Even if as a couple you come from different religious and cultural backgrounds, like Dimitri and Seema, why not incorporate some of your customs into your wedding ceremony?
Share your ideas with us!
Warm island Greetings,
Honors
