The Green Edit - An Editorial Styled Shoot

Where Texture, Tone & Nature Move as One

Set against an expansive lawn, a character-filled building, and uninterrupted views stretching toward the Cretan mountains, this editorial unfolded as a study in green - immersive, sculptural, and quietly powerful.

Surrounded by trees and flourishing gardens, the venue offered both scale and intimacy. The landscape didn’t compete with the design; it completed it. Every shade of green layered into the setting as though it had always belonged there.

This was The Green Edit - a refined exploration of texture, tone, and modern form.

The Vision

The concept centered on a single hue interpreted in multiple dimensions. Green, not as a flat palette, but as movement. Satin and matte. Structured and ruffled. Wax and floral. Softness meeting architectural intent.

The aim was to create an atmosphere that felt immersive yet restrained - elevated without excess. A ceremony that felt like a living installation. A reception that carried presence. Details that felt artful rather than traditional.

Less convention. More statement.

A Ceremony Layered in Green

The ceremony design transformed the lawn into a sculptural landscape of circular stages in varying sizes . Each platform was draped in a different green fabric - some smooth and tailored, others gathered into soft ruffles that created depth and movement.

Black metal chairs with white ruffled cushions were arranged in curated clusters across the grass and atop the stages, encouraging a sense of fluidity rather than rigid symmetry. Guests would feel enveloped by the design, rather than simply seated within it.

Florals were placed both on the stages and directly on the lawn, designed to appear as though they had naturally grown there. On the main stage, layered floral arrangements intertwined with wax installations that caught the light, adding a subtle sculptural dimension.

Green in five expressions. Draped. Layered. Textured. Refined, yet undeniably bold.

Reception in Verdant Drama

Two half-circle tables formed the architectural anchor of the reception. Draped in olive green linens, their satin sides fell dramatically to the floor, creating a sense of movement and softness against the structured layout.

The same black chairs from the ceremony continued the narrative, creating cohesion across spaces.

Each setting was intentionally composed: textured plates in soft green, polished silver cutlery, clear glassware, and cream satin napkins styled uniquely atop each plate. Resting above them, olive green place cards with delicate lace edges introduced a subtle romantic detail.

Short and tall candles traced the outer curves, while additional candles illuminated the inner space between the tables, building warmth and dimension. At the centre, a raised stage held layered floral arrangements, echoed across the tables in varying compositions.

It was immersive. Alive with presence. Green reigning without overpowering.

The Bar - Structured Softness

The bar carried the narrative forward through material and line. Draped in soft green fabric and wrapped with ropes in green hues that created subtle horizontal definition, it felt textural yet composed.

A white crochet accent introduced contrast in the corner - delicate against the monochromatic palette. Two signature cocktails, both in green hues, completed the visual story while reinforcing the editorial’s cohesion.

The Champagne Tower - A Sculptural Ritual

A circular two-tiered table, draped in white crochet and olive green satin, became the foundation for the champagne tower. Silver coupes filled with green olives and scattered across the table — unexpected, playful, entirely intentional.

The moment felt celebratory yet curated. A ritual elevated through texture and tone.

The Cake - Stacked, Artful, Unapologetic

Positioned on the main ceremony stage, the cake became part of a larger installation. It stood atop an olive green–draped pedestal, framed by a handcrafted wax wall behind it and additional wax sculptures placed at varying heights on either side.

Four tiers. Four distinct greens. Four individual shapes.

Each layer was designed as its own sculptural element, artfully composed and expressive. Floral details softened the structure, while wax added dimension and light reflection.

Less tradition. More architectural statement.

A Design Meant to Be Experienced

The Green Edit was not about color alone - it was about atmosphere. About how texture shifts in natural light. How fabric falls against grass. How wax glows at sunset. How florals can feel as though they’ve always belonged to the landscape.

From ceremony to reception, from bar to champagne tower, from sculptural cake to verdant tablescapes, every detail moved in quiet dialogue with the surroundings.

A monochromatic study in balance. A celebration of tone and texture.

A wedding concept designed not only to be seen - but to be felt.

The Creatives Behind The Green Edit

No editorial of this scale is ever the work of one vision alone. It is the result of collaboration - of trust placed in talented hands and a shared commitment to excellence.

The Green Edit came to life through a collective of professionals who moved in alignment, each contributing their craft to something larger than themselves. With a unified aesthetic, open communication, and mutual respect, the process felt seamless from beginning to end.

When the right team stands behind a concept, the result is not just cohesive - it is effortless.
