Yassee & Yuri: A Stunning Greek-Inspired Wedding with Mediterranean Design

Written by Fatima Falcon Garcia
December 6, 2022

It’s no coincidence that destination weddings are becoming a priority for couples seeking an experience like no other. Designing Yassee and Yuri’s Greek-inspired wedding was a dream, and in this celebration, the ideas sprouted to recreate an atmosphere inspired by the Mediterranean and the colorful vibe of Greece.

A fascinating I Do to enhance the luxury of Los Cabos.

The Love Story

The couple chose Los Cabos for its beauty, but also because it reminded them of Florianoloplis, a destination where they originally planned to get married. Yassee and Yuri met at orientation for graduate school and fell in love at first sight!

Yuri proposed at sunset on sand dunes overlooking the beach in Florianopolis, Brazil, his hometown! He took Yassee there over Thanksgiving break in 2019, right before COVID stopped the world!

After that very special story, we were convinced that the planning process had to be just like them: passionate, magnetic, positive, and jovial.

A colorful Greek-inspired wedding with Mediterranean touches

To create a wedding inspired by Greece and Mediterranean design, the creative proposal was based on a wedding color scheme made of intense colors such as fuchsia, the shades of local fruits, and a tent of lights that became one of the focal points of the celebration.

Talavera and mosaics were a fundamental part of recreating that trip to their favorite corners of the world.

The priority for them was the food and the fact that the wedding ended at 1 in the morning. Most wedding venues in Los Cabos have a celebration time limit of 11 pm, so it was an adventure to find the ideal space for Yassee and Yuri.

We took care of doing an analysis of the best places that were not only great for the party, but also for the group.

We chose Casa Hidalgos, a very flexible place in its schedules and with the capacity to host a good part of the group of guests. This made it easy for other attendees to enjoy the luxury of Los Cabos and experience other incredibly cool hotels.

To achieve this wedding, communication was key.

Yassee and Yuri came to Los Cabos three times to perform site inspections and to make sure that all the details were in line with what they wanted from their big day.

We worked together on logistics, and we loved receiving Yassee’s mom for menu tastings, makeup and hairstyle tests, floral mockups, and tablescapes.

The site inspections were without a doubt my favorite part. In the 9-month wedding planning process, we managed to see this beautiful couple every three months and we had fun creating this wedding inspired by Greece and the Mediterranean, their favorite places in the world.

On the day of the wedding, we were delighted to see them ready for the ceremony, which was very emotional.

Being a part of these moments in a love story and seeing firsthand how each couple’s dreams come true is absolutely riveting. The spirit of Cabo destination weddings has that magic that captivates and through which we can create magic from start to finish.

The happenings could not be missing in this wedding in Los Cabos with a Mediterranean design. They had a Sunset tour upon arrival, and the pool party in the pool of the house was very fun, without neglecting the rehearsal in Mar del Cabo, an exceptional hotel.

During this Greek-inspired wedding, the first dance with her dad moved us a lot and all the details were just beautiful and energetic like their personality.

There’s no doubt that creating a love experience as amazing as Yassee and Yuri’s makes us believe more in the uniqueness of destination weddings and the glamour that only Los Cabos has to impress everyone.
