Love has a way of conquering all obstacles, and for George and Delphina, that was certainly the case when they tied the knot on the picturesque island of Chios amidst the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. George, a proud Greek, and Delphina, a radiant Polish beauty, met in the United States, but Greece was the natural choice for their Mediterranean destination wedding. The groom’s family estate in Kampos, a historic area known for its vast citrus orchards and elegant mansions, provided the perfect setting for their special day. Despite travel restrictions and uncertainties, friends and family from all over the world defied the odds to celebrate with them. The only bittersweet note was that the best man—George’s own brother—contracted COVID-19 just before the wedding. Unable to attend in person, he had to watch the celebrations unfold from afar, a modern twist on an age-old tradition.

This Greek island wedding was a breathtaking affair, beginning with a heartfelt ceremony in a small Greek Orthodox church by the sea. The gentle sound of waves accompanied their vows, adding to the intimate atmosphere. Delphina, in a flowing @jacquemus gown, walked down the wavy pathway to a waiting George, whose emotion was visible to all. After the ceremony, guests gathered at the groom’s estate, where they enjoyed a cocktail hour, a dinner reception and of course the party which was infused with both Greek and Polish traditions. Under glowing string lights and the scent of blooming citrus trees, laughter, music, and the heartfelt speeches which filled the night, this young couple celebrated not just their love but the coming together of two cultures.

Despite the challenges, George and Delphina’s destination wedding in Greece was a testament to love’s resilience. Even those who couldn’t be there physically were present in spirit, making the day even more meaningful. It was an unforgettable celebration—one that proved love knows no borders, no obstacles, and no pandemics, only the joy of finding the one you’re meant to be with.
