Alexander and Maria had a destination elopement, just the two of them, in Prague. They then stayed on afterwards for their honeymoon.

“We thought for a long time about what our wedding should be like”, explained the bride. “We both love the same music and love going to concerts together, so we knew that would be a big influence. Music has connected us. Alexander is also very partial to old school computer games (and he’s a a programmer) so we wanted to connect these two things and add a bit of gothic glamour – after all, we were getting married in Prague!”

“We are from Russia and the format for a wedding in our country is for it to be very traditional”, she continued. “It’s very rare that you would run off, just the two of you and get married abroad. Luckily, our close family quietly embraced the idea, and we allowed ourselves to make the most important day for us in exactly the way we wanted. Since we were not constrained by tradition at all, we were able to use our imagination when it came to what we wore!”

“Dear soon to be married couples, do not be afraid to make your day the way you want it!”, she concluded. “Believe me, you will remember these moments forever as the best, most happy times in your life. Do the things that make you happy and you can proudly say that your wedding was truly unique.”
