Wedding in Dubrovnik Nataliya & Lowell
Wedding in Dubrovnik | Nataliya and Lowell are two spouses who left their mark on the hot stone of the monumental city of Dubrovnik. As the sun was slowly getting down into the sea, in the middle of the city walls, two souls connected into one. Colleagues, mentors, mutual motivators full of support, before all – friends, and today, finally, husband and wife – they decided to give each other their hands in marriage forever in the Dubrovnik wedding venue. After the initial wonderment of the guests concerning the idea of going all the way to Croatia for a celebration, family of the couple realized the value of unique destination weddings in Dubrovnik. The blend of culture, beauty of environment and Mediterranean climate in the city under the protection of UNESCO truly makes an unprecedented scenery. Dubrovnik weddings have been gathering enamored ones from all over the world for many years, as many have realized that the most important day of their life deserves to be spent in so praised tourist city. After enjoying the world-renowned Sheraton hotel, the newlyweds to be dressed up and headed to the old town. There is no better moment and place to recall common moments of love than during long romantic walk in Dubrovnik‘s main street Stradun. But there is a moment we all live for. The moment we step toward the eternal community with the person we recognize as the one we want to grow old with. For Nataliya it was especially emotional because she remembered her late father Alex. As her mother held her hand tightly and led her to the altar, Alex was with them in their hearts, proud that his daughter is stepping towards a trusting man like Lowell. Nataliya and Lowell said the fateful “yes” in the historic core of a centuries-old town, after which they were crowned with a laurel wreath, as the old Dubrovnik tradition imposes. Dubrovnik wedding planner knows he has succeeded in his efforts around the ceremony when he sees pleased family members and friends smiling and giving standing ovations to the newlyweds. After the ceremonial formal part, the wedding moved to one of the luxurious Dubrovnik terraces that are characterized by the breathtaking sea view. Nataliya and Lowell celebrated the foundation of their family on the walls of Dubrovnik, under the palm trees and the candle lights, long into the night. The happy couple held a welcoming speech inviting their guests to respect the old Ukrainian tradition. They encouraged their friends to give toasts and to raise their glasses together at any time in honor of a joined future of a husband and wife. The evening continued in a joyful relaxing atmosphere charged with emotions in the rhythm of the music and dance of the guests in front of the untiring eye of Dubrovnik wedding photographer. Finally, as Lowell’s father emphasized, the essence of weddings are family and friends. And when people who we love gather around us in a place that radiates the serenity and beauty of history such as Dubrovnik, the magic of two joining into one can begin.

Met in Austria, Engaged on the Cook Islands and Got Married in Croatia I know it may sound weird that two soulmates can meet in a night club at a trance party, where usually no one talks to each other, but it really is possible. Exactly these two weird soulmates are now the happiest Mr and Mrs on the whole planet…or, we love to believe we are. Back in 2010, even 6 months after I (Fatime) had moved from Bosnia to an Austrian village as au pair, my host family was still trying to motivate me to go out on my own. After so many failed tries, on the 14.8.2010, I finally decided to take the last train from the country side to Vienna and to return back with the first one in the morning. I went to my favorite club which I loved so much, because it was a club with a planetarium where you could sit and enjoy watching the stars when you got tired from dancing. I came to the club with a great wish to dance all night long. Even though a few people tried to talk to me, my answer was always the same “I´m here to dance”. But then, at some point, this cute guy I had noticed in the que in front of the club, he came to me and we simply started dancing. It felt so normal that one would think we had known each other forever. And I do like to think our souls had been together for much longer before we even met each other. It was such a memorable night I can still remember almost every single detail about it. At some point both of us got tired from dancing and went to find a nice place to sit in the planetarium to watch the stars. We stayed there for hours without really talking to each other, but it simply felt like the right thing to do. Unfortunately, we were “kicked out” from the planetarium around 5am and we had another hour to spend together before my train left Vienna. Somehow I managed to give him a wrong phone number and a day after that was the first time I was incredibly thankful for having such a rare name, which made it easy for him to find me on Facebook J. From then on, it all went just perfect. We started dating on the 28.8.2010, which is still our anniversary day, because we got married on the same date this year. We never really used to talk about getting married, probably because we started living together in the fourth month of our relationship and it somehow felt like being married. If I was to say one thing I always loved and still adore about him…it would be him, being such a great dreamer. He always loved to talk about his great wish for traveling around the world once he finishes his master studies and somehow…that moment came so quickly and, suddenly, we were both packing our backpacks and getting ready for our big adventure. I couldn’t believe we were really going to be gone for about three months, on our own. And, even if it may sound like a big lie, I never, really never even thought he could be intending to propose on me on our trip. But, he was…and that was without any doubt, the most beautiful day in my life, until our wedding day. There are no words in any language I speak, which could explain my enthusiasm and happiness about getting married to a men a woman can only dream about. I enjoyed every single second of getting all done for our big day. We decided to exchange our wedding vows on the beautiful Croatian Island Vis which we loved it so much, because we had our most beautiful and memorable vacation there back in 2011. I was so happy for having the whole freedom of planning the wedding exactly the way I wanted it and that’s the way the wedding was in the end. My perfect bohemian wedding with our closest family and friends. But, let the most beautiful pics made by Danijela from One Day Studio tell you more about this special day. Thank you Danijela for capturing our most beautiful moments <3 With love, Fatime Photographer: Danijela Location: Island of Vis, Croatia Vis Wedding Photographer | Destination Weddings | Croatia Wedding Photography | Destination Croatia | Wedding Cinematography | Island Vis Croatia | Bohemian Weddings | Venues Croatia | Engagement photography | Garden Wedding
