Setting Sail on a Memorable Journey
As we embark on our maritime adventure together, our journey will begin with departure from the harbor and a leisurely cruise toward the fabled hot springs located at the Nea Kameni volcano. There, amidst the tranquil Aegean Sea, you'll have the opportunity to indulge in the natural warm waters, reaping the dermatological benefits of the sulphureous springs. Our voyage will continue as we set sail for the picturesque island of Thirassia. Relaxation meets unspoiled beauty here, where you'll be invited to swim in the crystal-clear waters – a refreshing preamble to the delectable lunch we will savor al fresco. Post-lunch, we will glide past the northern tip of Santorini to witness the breathtaking panorama of Oia from our unique vantage point at sea. This view is undeniably one of the most stunning spectacles Santorini has to present. Leveraging the favorable northerly winds, we will then navigate southward back to Athinios port, sailing along the spellbinding caldera coastline. As the sun dips towards the horizon, the unforgettable vistas that define our voyage will etch into your memory, long outlasting the final moments of our cruise.
All White Sunset Cruise
In the spirit of love and unity, we kindly request the pleasure of your company in all-white attire for our boat party. This dress code symbolizes the essence of our relationship—pure, in harmony, and beautifully simple.
Whether it's through a flowing white dress, a soft linen shirt, or elegant white attire of your choice, your participation in our all-white theme will serve as a reflection of the love and commitment we cherish.
We can't wait to set sail into this new adventure with you all by our side, decked out in white, creating unforgettable memories.
See you there!
Transportation will be provided through our boat company. Pick up will be at Thermes Luxury Villas, with the final call scheduled for 1:30 pm. Ensure you arrive at least 30 minutes earlier to avoid missing the boat party.
Dining on the Waves
As we set sail on this joyous occasion, our wonderful boat crew will be crafting a delightful meal for us to enjoy onboard. Detailed menu information will be shared as soon as it is finalized.

Dancing Queen Spectacular!
We are excited to invite all of our guests to join a group dance to "Dancing Queen" from Mamma Mia 2! There's no need to be a dance pro; just come ready to have fun! Check out the video below for a dance tutorial. Life is short, and the world is wide, so let's make some memories! ;)
SLATHER ON THE SUNSCREEN
Neglecting proper sun protection is one of the most common mistakes novice boaters make. Even if your skin doesn’t tend to burn, that’s no excuse to skimp on the sunscreen. Use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 50 and reapply it every hour or so.
Tip:
When applying sunscreen, don’t forget your face, ears, and the back of your neck. Bring along a lip balm with some SPF, too—that skin is very sensitive and needs extra care
As we gather on the water, please remember to bring sunglasses and consider a hat for the boat party. The sun will be bright, and we want you to be comfortable and stylish, while enjoying the splendid views. These accessories will not only complement your all-white attire but also protect you from the sun, ensuring you can fully embrace our joyous celebration.
Motion Sickness
If you frequently struggle with motion sickness, you're probably already familiar with the relief that Dramamine can offer. To maximize its effectiveness, it's advised to take the Dramamine Original Formula approximately 30 to 60 minutes before embarking on your journey and continue to use as the package directions suggest. For those looking to prevent motion sickness while minimizing grogginess, try Dramamine All Day Less Drowsy the day before your trip for symptom relief that lasts up to 24 hours with less drowsiness.
For a natural remedy, ginger candy or pills can be an effective option, which we highly recommend. Additionally, Hyland’s Motion Sickness and Cocculus Compositum are two notable homeopathic medications for managing motion sickness, with Cocculus Compositum being particularly useful for more severe cases.
We are thrilled to include the Mehndi ceremony as part of our wedding festivities, a beautiful tradition we look forward to sharing with you. As this event is still in the planning stages, the exact details are yet to be finalized. We promise to update you with more information as soon as everything is arranged. Please check back on our website or keep an eye out for updates through email. We can't wait to share the enjoyment and significance of this ceremony with all of our loved ones, and we appreciate your patience as we craft an experience that will be truly memorable for everyone involved. Your understanding and excitement mean the world to us!
We are excited to announce that we will have a talented henna artist joining us during our wedding celebrations to adorn the hands of our guests with beautiful, intricate designs. Henna, or 'Mehndi,' carries deep cultural significance in South Asian weddings, symbolizing beauty, joy, spiritual awakening, and the offering of blessings. It is believed that henna brings good luck, happiness, and love, making it a perfect embodiment of our union and the beginning of our journey together. We invite you to partake in this delightful tradition and immerse yourself in the artistry and meaningful symbolism of henna with us.
We wholeheartedly invite each and every one of you to hit the dance floor and share in the joy and celebration of our love story. Dancing is a way of expressing joy and happiness, and there's no better reason to celebrate than our union. For those who feel inspired to take their enthusiasm a step further and perform a choreographed dance, we would be thrilled to showcase your talents! Please don't hesitate to let us know ahead of time if you'd like to perform. We are looking forward to celebrating, laughing, and most importantly, dancing the night away with all of you. We can't wait to create unforgettable memories together!
The dress code for our wedding is traditional Pakistani/Indian attire. We encourage all guests to embrace the cultural richness of the event by donning traditional clothing such as lehengas, saris, shalwar kameez, sherwanis, or any festive ethnic wear. Men are welcome to opt for suits or linen suits in their color of choice.
For the Mehndi/Sangeet celebration, we recommend embracing the tradition of vibrant and lively colors. Opt for shades like pink, green, teal, blue, purple and jewel tones to add a festive touch.
Kindly avoid selecting red or yellow attire for the event, as these hues are traditionally reserved for the bride in accordance with custom.
What if I'm not familiar with traditional Pakistani/Indian clothing?
While traditional attire is encouraged, we understand that not everyone may be familiar with these styles. We welcome guests to wear any festive, formal clothing that makes them feel comfortable and adds to the joyous atmosphere. If you're considering traditional wear but need assistance, feel free to reach out to us – we're happy to provide guidance or answer any questions.
Here are some sites where you can purchase Indian/ Pakistani clothing. If you are in Southern California, please take a visit to Pioneer (Little India) :)
