Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making such a wonderful day for Natalie, Josh and all of our guests.
We simply cannot fault one single thing and the wedding is still being talked about on facebook and within the family. One guest said it was a fairtale wedding, another said he was going home to propose to his long term girl friend and another said it was so romantic that they had fallen in love all over again and would be marking the occassion by another addition to their family!!
Where do we begin… After deciding to get married in Cyprus and being slightly worried the wedding wouldn’t be that something a little different if a holiday tour operator organised it, we thought we would Google ‘wedding planner in Cyprus’ and we came across a video ‘A nice day for a Greek wedding’ and from that moment I wanted to meet Stella
We emailed Stella and arranged to meet in May 2014, (and we married in October 2015) Ross, his mum and I spent 3 days searching for the perfect hotel and wedding venue but we’re really disheartened because we couldn’t find that something special that we were searching for. The following morning Stella picked us up and immediately I knew she would be able to organise us everything we wished for! Finally we chose the hotel to stay in which was also top on the list to hold our wedding until Stella pulled it out the bag and took us to the most amazing venue I have ever seen abroad!
My wife and I got married in March 2016 I am just now finding time to write a review for Stella , Part of my delay is that realistically, there are not nearly enough nice and fitting words to match the phenomenal service and support Stella provided during the planning and day of our wedding.
We have hired Stella Virdi for full services rather than just day of coordination. And I have to tell Stella that her fees really don’t match her services, she should charge more!
My now ‘husband’ and I travelled out to Cyprus in December 2014 to try and find the perfect location for our wedding. We came home disheartened as we couldn’t find the right place which ticked all of our boxes. Thankfully after searching online, I came across Stella and her website and saw pictures of a venue which I had not come across before. I immediately called and spoke with Stella and explained exactly what we were looking for. As my father is Cypriot I wanted to incorporate some Cyprus traditions into a ‘English style’ wedding. As soon as I spoke with Stella I knew that she understood what we were trying to achieve and the fact that her son had recently got married at the venue we were looking at pretty much made my mind up that we couldn’t go wrong with the venue. Within a few days of speaking with Stella the venue was booked, which for us was a big step, as we wouldn’t usually book something without having seen it in person.
I have to say that Minthis Hills was an absolutely stunning location for our wedding. The old monastery set within a courtyard is beautiful and the scenery of hills and trees is breath-taking. This mixed in with a modern clubhouse for the wedding reception created the perfect wedding venue for us. Our guests were all amazed with the venue and each and every one of them complimented on what a wonderful day they had, they are still talking about it now!!
Our perfect day would not have been possible without Stella. She really does an amazing job, from recommending the top suppliers and keeping on top of them once booked to organising the finer details such as legal docs which we would not have had the faintest clue about! She takes the stress away, you really can rely on Stella and be comfortable that she will get things done. She is definitely not afraid to keep everyone in check to make sure the day runs smoothly! It was great to know that she was there throughout day should any issue arise (and to hold the essentials that I couldn’t fit in my bag such as hairspray and make-up!) but it was also lovely to have her be part of our day, the little touch in large confetti cannons that she gave to our guests was a lovely surprise and made for some great photos!
A special mention also to Andrea and Paris for producing such beautiful flowers, the courtyard was like a dream when I walked into it, I couldn’t have wished for anything more. The reception venue was equally as beautiful, it was created just how I had hoped it would be. So a huge thank you to them also!
If you are looking for a musician for your cocktail ceremony then we would really recommend Kirsty Dewar as she is an amazing artist and a really lovely lady. We could have listened to her singing and playing the guitar all night.
We can’t finish without also mentioning Natalie and the staff at Minthis Hills who ensured that our guests were happy, they couldn’t have done any more if they had tried, the service was exceptional!
Stella – Thank you so much for your help leading up to and on the wedding day itself. It really was perfect in every way, we are so glad that we chose Minthis Hills for our venue. If we had one wish it would be to do it all over again!! x
Whilst Iain and I wanted to be married, I think it’s fair to say the idea of an actual wedding scared the life out of us. Then a year ago we found you Stella Virdi. You have been amazingly honest, supportive, attentive and caring. Guided us through the process with ease, expert knowledge and advice. Took away from us, all of the stress and strain in planning our wedding, Stella listened to our every concern and comment, ultimately making our dream come true. We could not and would not have done this without you.
To any soon to be brides out there researching wedding planners in Cyprus, look no further. You will not find anyone better, Stella is the best.
We would also like to say a big thank you to Nick, Martin and Brenda for your professionalism whilst taking our photos and video yesterday. We look forward to seeing them very much.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Stella, we had our version of a perfect day, start to finish.
