A GREEK ISLAND ROMANCE

May 15th-2024

PRICILA + IAN

Pricilla and Ian’s story started way back in seventh grade, of all places—math class. But it wasn’t until they were paired up for a science project on rocks that things really clicked. Ian was a bit shy, but he was sweet and thoughtful, and Pricilla couldn't help but notice how kind he was. As they worked together, they started to bond, and that simple school project turned into the beginning of something much more special.

As they grew older, they both went through tough times. During their sophomore year, Pricilla lost her grandpa, and Ian lost his dad. It was a rough time for both of them, but they leaned on each other, supporting each other through their grief. Even though they were dealing with their own loss, they found comfort in knowing they weren’t alone.

After high school, Pricilla moved to Chicago to start a new chapter. Even though they were now miles apart, their connection stayed strong. They kept in touch, sharing everything about their lives, and two years later, Ian decided to make the move to Chicago, too. The distance didn’t break them—it only made their bond stronger.

One night, while they were hanging out on the rooftop of their Chicago apartment, overlooking the city, Ian surprised Pricilla with a proposal. In that moment, with the skyline as their backdrop, Pricilla knew she was exactly where she was meant to be. It was a simple, yet perfect, way to mark the beginning of the rest of their lives together.

They’ve always found joy in the little things—sharing meals, trying new restaurants, and just spending time with each other. But what really makes their relationship special is how well they understand each other. Ian knows exactly how to calm Pricilla down when she’s upset, and he always knows how to make her smile, no matter what. He’s the person she can count on, whether things are good or bad.

Their journey together has been full of ups and downs, but through it all, they’ve learned that as long as they’ve got each other, they can handle anything life throws at them. Their love is a reminder that it’s not about being perfect—it’s about having someone by your side who gets you, supports you, and knows just how to make you laugh when you need it most.

A PERFECT DAY IN MILOS - Milos provided the perfect backdrop for this intimate and unforgettable elopement. The day began early at the serene Milos Cove Resort, where the couple prepared for their big moment in quiet anticipation. After the bride slipped into her gown and the groom adjusted his suit, they shared a private first look with the stunning Aegean Sea as their backdrop. The magic continued as a golf cart whisked them away to a secluded beach within the resort, where they exchanged heartfelt vows, the sound of gentle waves marking the moment they sealed their love with a kiss. Afterward, they returned to the resort to call their loved ones, sharing the joy of their new union with family from afar. The couple then traveled to Sarakiniko Beach for a breathtaking bridal portrait session, surrounded by the moon-like white rock formations and clear turquoise waters of one of the island’s most iconic spots. As the sun set, they returned to the resort to cut their cake and enjoy a private, romantic dinner by the sea, savoring the last moments of their perfect day. From the first look to the final toast, their Milos elopement was a celebration of love, beauty, and the beginning of forever.

The couple also opted for a day-before photoshoot, dressed in casual clothes, to capture a more relaxed and personal side of their love story. They spent the day exploring the charming streets and stunning landscapes of Milos, taking in the island’s beauty while snapping candid, natural photos. From strolling along quiet beaches to posing in front of the island’s iconic white-washed buildings, the casual shoot allowed them to embrace the peaceful vibe of Milos while creating memories that would last a lifetime. It was the perfect way to ease into their wedding celebration, setting a laid-back, intimate tone for the big day ahead.
