Transport yourself to the sun-drenched hillsides of Greece—without ever leaving North America.
This breathtaking styled shoot, set at The View at Bluemont in Virginia’s wine country, captures the timeless charm of a Greek mountain village with a modern, romantic twist.
Inspired by her own family’s love stories rooted in the Greek countryside, Washington DC and Greece destination wedding photographer Alexis El Massih partnered with wedding planner Virginia Swope of V+V Weddings to craft a Mediterranean escape filled with warmth, intimacy, and effortless beauty.
A palette of soft whites and lush greenery set the tone for the shoot, evoking the minimalist elegance of a traditional Greek wedding. Earthy textures—woven baskets, rustic pottery, and wooden accents—added authenticity and soul to the tablescape, while olive branches delicately woven into the floral arrangements served as a nod to the heritage of the land.
