Magical Experience with Weddings & Whimsy

Choosing Weddings & Whimsy as our vendors for our wedding was magical. We are from the US and Kirsty helped me plan and choose what I wanted just through email. I was super nervous about making huge decisions for our wedding just by viewing photos and speaking only through email but our experience was wonderful. Once our special day came I had an idea of what I had chosen but I put all faith in our vendors that everything would be perfect and it absolutely was. It was exactly what I had dreamed our elopement wedding would be like. The delivery team was exactly on time (this was huge for me as I am very punctual) and very friendly. Kirsty was always very responsive through email every time I asked a question. She gave me wonderful recommendations and suggestions. Because of her I had the most beautiful flower arrangements made by Betty Flowers. Everything about our day was perfect. I HIGHLY recommend using Wedding & Whimsy. They went above and beyond to make our day special. We cannot wait to visit Greece again. The views, people, culture, and food is pure magic.

Found these guys last minute – so lucky!

My partner and I eloped, just the two of us – Kirsty and Daryl were an absolute dream to work with and helped make the day such a success. So friendly, easy going, very patient, prompt with replies and with the set up for our special day – absolutely seamless! Thank you so so much guys! Your addition made our ceremony so magical – we cannot picture the day without you! All the best!! 🙂 xxx

Incredible and Magical!

Wow….just WOW! From the moment we first reached out to Wedding and Whimsy they gave us a very warm welcome. Kirsty had wonderful ideas and easily put together a a collection of items that made my vision a reality! Our elopement was exactly what we wanted and more! They were very patient with us through the process and were available to us whenever we had a question. They made planning an elopement from the states a very smooth process. Thank you for all that you did for us, our wedding day was magical and we wouldn’t have it any other way!

An Absolute GEM

My wife and I got married in Santorini on July 8th, 2019. We really wanted to decorate our wedding at Le Ciel with a few standout pieces of decor. I found Weddings & Whimsy on Instagram (they’re pretty popular) and Kirsty was immediately super responsive and helpful. She quoted me right away for giant light-up marquees and a painted welcome sign (everything was also affordable in my eyes). Last minute, I ended up needing a card holder and Kirsty knew exactly what to choose. I have to say, if you peruse their website, you’ll find tons of really inspiring ideas and decor you never even thought of incorporating in your big day.

I met with Kirsty two days before the wedding at the venue and she was so wonderful! She really got us excited about the details and walked me through where things would be set up. We definitely knew we were in good hands. It’s easy to stress about planning a destination event but our vendors took a lot of the worry away.

Come the day of our wedding, the team was punctual and did a stunning job! I can’t thank everyone enough for making it easy to put my trust in them. Kirsty & Daryl are true professionals and just lovely to work with. They played a large part in bringing our vision to fruition. If it isn’t clear enough already, I highly recommend working with Weddings & Whimsy. My wife and I appreciate how responsive and easy-going Kirsty was when it came to our many emails and questions. This wonderful team will always be part of our happiest memories!

Friendliest, most helpful venue dresser in Santorini!

Kirsty dressed my venue for me for my wedding and it looked absolutely incredible once she had finished. She tied all of the sashes to my chairs perfectly and even called me to day there was enough left over to dress the ceremony chairs so she did those too! She went above and beyond for our wedding, easily my favourite vendor of the wedding. Everybody commented on how gorgeous the venue looked and the candlesticks I’d hired from her were beautiful too.

Weddings & Whimsy was absolutely AMAZING!!  1000% RECOMMEND to anyone looking to get married in Santorini.  Kirsty was more than helpful with every aspect of my wedding.  Without having a wedding planner myself, she went over and above to point me in the right direction and help me whenever I asked.  Kirsty also has a keen eye for detail and extremely creative.  Not only that they are the most amazing, friendly people.  If you want to make your event/wedding the most memorable, stress free, beautiful day of your life you most definitely must get Weddings&Whimsy. Thank you so very much for making our day the most special of our lives.

5 stars! We loved Kirsty and her team at Weddings & Whimsy! Kirsty helped me so much with every crazy idea I had she made it a reality.

I wanted a mirror to put my card tables on and she found the exact one I wanted in Athens! I also was running around the day before getting things sorted and Kirsty kindly picked up my cake topper for me as I was missing it. You really went above and beyond! I would recommend any bride that is looking for mirrors, love lights (which we also had) simple bits for the ceremony etc. Thank you Kirsty! We wish you all the best.

My husband and I had the picture perfect wedding that we desired which was made possible with the help from Kirsty and team. Right from the go, Kirsty held multiple Skype calls with us to get a real feel for what we liked and wanted before putting various proposals together. Kirsty provided the most efficient and easy service we encountered during the wedding. Nothing was ever too much trouble and the innovative ideas and products that Weddings & Whimsy make this a must have vendor for any wedding. The design advice, products and vision helped us wow our guests with personalized Welcome signs, table plan, giant LOVE letters, giant Initials. This is a 5 star service. Don’t hesitate for one moment to use them

Eloping in Santorini

We eloped in Santorini this June and were happily pleased with their products and service. I planned the event; they were amazing to deal with from beginning to end. Strongly recommend for your decor!

Kirsty was an absolute star from start to finish when it came to designing our wedding reception. I had no idea what I really wanted but Kirsty came up with bespoke designs and worked with me over many months to make sure I was completely happy with the look and feel.
We had a bit of a nightmare two weeks before our wedding as the venue cancelled… however, Kirsty was on standby to amend our design and tailor it to our new venue at really short notice. We met a couple of days before the wedding and I felt like I had known her all my life! Our room was beautiful and the guests commented on how classy and delicate it looked.
We hired the light up letters ‘N&L’ which looked great on the photos and were the main focal point of the room. Everything was done so professionally but with a personal touch too. Nothing is too much for this lady and she will go above and beyond to make sure you are happy!
Thank you so much Kirsty, we loved how everything turned out and wish we could do it all again! Xx

Kirsty and Wedding & Whimsy are beyond amazing. They added the special touch with decorations for my special day. I couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend!!! Thank you so much for being as wonderful as you are!

Alexandra Gekas Selby

I initially only emailed Kirsty as I saw a prop she hired out in another Santorini wedding online. But instantly we began to share emails and she really helped me design my wedding, and I ended up hiring a lot of beautiful bespoke things from her. I loved receiving emails from her as they were always so warm and personal. Meeting her in Santorini was like meeting an old friend, and she went completely out of her way to make sure everything was perfect, turning up when we arrived at the reception to make sure everything was okay (and it was AMAZING) I am so grateful, Kirsty thank you! Me and Richard were thrilled with everything. I hope one day I return to Santorini and we can meet again xxx

Perfect Experience!

We had a perfect experience with Kirsty from Weddings and Whimsy. We met her a few weeks before our wedding in Santorini (19th September 20) and she immediately understood what we wanted. The flower arch I ordered was perfectly in line with my desire, and the LOVE letters, really fantastic. Thanks to her we had the perfect decoration at the perfect place. Kirsty indeed advised us very well on the location where to put everything. She is a smiling, punctual, and empathetic woman. Don’t hesitate if you need your help. She can realise ALL your dreams ! Thanks again to Kirsty and her husband.

Isabelle & Eric

Magical and Unique

Weddings & Whimsy provided this beautiful double arch that was a statement piece for our small wedding. It was so unique, different, and perfect to say the least. We used their bar cart as our cake table and let me tell you… it was magical against the Santorini view! Thank you so much Kristy & Daryl for always keeping me posted and for a worry-free wedding day!

Laura & James

Amazing Last Minute Experience!

We contacted Kirsty a few weeks before we were to arrive in Santorini and asked if she would be available for a last minute elopement. She was more than willing to work with us. She scheduled a meeting the day before, gave us options (even though she was super booked for the busy season), and worked out details with us so efficiently. Thank you for helping us make this day so special and offering affordable suggestions. We appreciate all you did!

Tiffany & Lester

Incredible!!!!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Kirsty and Weddings and Whimsy! I told her my vision and she executed it just beautifully!! Better than I could have ever imagined. You made our big day extra, extra special!! Thanks a million 🙂

Lennis & Geo

Perfection!!

We had the pleasure of working with Kirsty for our small wedding in Santorini. She was absolutely wonderful!! So kind and attentive to every detail.
From my first email with Kirsty I knew I was in wonderful hands. She helped bring the wedding of our dreams to life and I would recommend Kirsty and her team to everyone! Thank you Kirsty 🙂 We will be forever grateful to have worked with you and to have had such a great experience with someone so lovely and talented.

Outstanding Professionalism

Kirsty and Daryl from ‘Weddings & Whimsy, were an absolute pleasure to work with! Trying to organise all our wedding logistics from our home country, where our wedding was held abroad, was no tall task for Kirsty and Daryl! They were exceptional and responsive, and were so professional with all the logistics pertaining to our special day. So much so that even when conducting a site recce, they were adamant that the choice we had made with some of our décor, would not do the day justice, and literally arranged to have everything redone and delivered and set up the day before our wedding! Pleasure to work with and highly recommendable.

Nick Kontos

We cannot thank Kirsty enough for the amazing signage and arches she provided for our wedding. Kirsty produced exactly what we asked for and envisaged. Our wedding arch, welcome arch and sign, seating plan, bar and other signage were so contemporary, fresh and stylish. So many of our guests commented on them and they added such special touches to our perfect day. We are so grateful to Kirsty for turning our ideas into a reality! Thank you so so so much!

I cannot recommend Kirsty and Daryl enough. They made our day magical. They did a fantastic job and were so Kind. Kirsty has a great eye and provided excellent input to create our dream wedding. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Matthew & Jessica

A gigantic, gratitude-fulled shout out to Weddings & Whimsy for transforming a bare balcony into a cosy love nest for our elopement! Not only did the beautiful Kirsty create the most dreamy, romantic atmosphere ever, but she was also unerringly kind, loving and helpful. I wish I could have her around all the time! 

Cassandra Lane

I am finding it hard to find the words to express how happy we both are to have worked with Kirsty and Daryl!  They are magicians that created the mood and perfect setting for our wedding and, while we had to negotiate the props online by emails and pictures, in reality it all looked beyond what we expected!
Weddings & Whimsy are a vendor that will deal with unexpected and difficult situations and ensure safety.  Choosing them gave us confidence all will be under control and there will be a plan B.
Great work ethic combined with kind hearts, clever engineering and creativity in smallest detail, you guys are an amazing team! ♥️ Thank you again so so so much!!  Can’t recommend you more!  X

Alexandra Ivanchuk

Weddings & Whimsy was a great find and nothing but helpful from start to finish. All my emails were answered promptly and everything made very simple which was fantastic.
Kirsty met both myself and husband a couple of days before the wedding at Le Ciel to discuss positioning of the letters and final arrangements. I did not feel rushed in any way and Kirsty was very helpful in discussing the options and what would look best. The LOVE sign was a massive hit at the wedding with everyone wanting their picture next to it. I would 100% recommend this company as they made everything so easy and the LOVE sign really did add to our special day.
Thank you so much Weddings & Whimsy.

A little piece of Heaven!

Kirsty and Daryl are amazing! Easy to get along and masters of their craft. My husband and I planned our 10 year anniversary very last minute and put our trust in them! Our dream came true and it felt like we had our own little piece of Heaven. Kirsty definitely has an eye for taste and Daryl is there to help create her vision. A power couple and goals to live by! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you both for making our day possible. -M&M

Wedding decoration in Santorini

I emailed Kirsty to hire a chalkboard for our wedding, and the response I got from her was so welcoming as reassuring. I loved receiving emails from Kirsty as they were so kind & welcoming. I met with Kirsty the day before my wedding, and it was like meeting with a friend. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our reception and I can’t thank her enough.
Thank you so much Kirsty, Luke and I hope to return to Santorini where we can meet again xx

If you’re thinking of getting married in Santorini (believe me, it’s idyllic and so beautifully romantic) then you couldn’t do better than this

Sally Hupfield-Smith

Planning weddings overseas can be tricky but Weddings & Whimsy made it very easy. They went above and beyond to help us set up the beautiful arch supplied by them and their personal touches made our special day that much more special.
We highly recommend Weddings & Whimsy.
