Story Behind Her Handmade Greek Wedding Dress

[@vgzolo]

You guys are amazing!… I was so thrilled to create Jess’s handmade dress and be part of your journey while you are living the dream! Stephen, we can arrange a freddo cappuccino for you anytime mate... You are the luckiest man, getting to travel the world with this amazing woman! From my heart, I wish you all the very best… a lifetime of amazing experiences, outstanding destinations filled with genuine people...

[@flyingthenest]

HEY VG! aww thank you so much! Honestly you seriously made Jess's day! Her eyes literally lit up on the wedding day when everything came together! Cannot wait for you to see the pictures and videos of the day and I think I will have to take you up on that Freddo Cappuccino :P

I'm watching your vids back to front, in 2022, post Covid pandemic. Started watching your adventures in around 2019, before Jess was pregnant, and looking back now over these earlier vids . Watched your wedding in Mykonos yesterday. And the dress making today. So very enjoyable. Brought back good memories for me of my trip to Greece in 2007, and first arriving in Athens having to navigate their metro system, which I was really impressed by. (Also this video got me remembering the mad dogs in Syntagma Square, laying by the side of the main road and jumping up and barking at all the passing cars.) I am really looking forward to seeing the rest of your Greek series.

Ijust went to Greece loved every minute, the people were great. Next time hope to spend more time in Athens

Aww greetings from a greek gall

How cool. Love the off white colour that a lot of the dresses were. Reminded me of when we used to make paper look old in primary school with tea bags.

[@DutchNomadFamily]

Love the hair and Angela is in love with the wedding dress. These series brings back good memories to our wedding prep.

[@flyingthenest]

I think thats why we have been loving showing every part of the process! Not to just extend and lead up to the vlog but so that we have all these memories to look back on!

[@catherinesim4967]

Steve your little giggles after you said "I'm here for the coffee" just made my day. You two are the cutest couple!

[@flyingthenest]

haha! love me some coffee :)

[@MarkAmanda]

WOW, I can't believe you waited to pick your wedding dress a week before the big day, that's amazing! In the States, all of my friends picked their dress months before but I guess it makes sense to wait as long as possible. One of my friends ended up buying two dresses because she wasn't sure about the 1st one lol. I can't wait to see it!

[@heatabayko]

So happy for you guys! I couldn't stop smiling the whole vlog!!

[@flyingthenest]

:)

[@hage8945]

I love this video so much because my dream is to become fashion designer or costumemaker and seeing how its made its just amazing not to mention that it's handmade....well at least I'm on my road to becoming one since I'm at fashion school and already create day own skirt & fabric

[@ErinColleennamaste]

what talented artists to create such beauty

[@jesscoakley4352]

I watch all your videos and I just really want to hate you both (because I'm so jealous), but you guys actually seem like the nicest people and the nicest couple and I just can't hate you! I'm still insanely jealous though! I hope your channel grows, you guys really deserve it!

[@flyingthenest]

haha! aww thank you :)

[@melissajohnson9426]

Ferdo espresso (not sure on the spelling) was seriously my favorite when in Europe!! So addicting! Happy wedding day (:

[@flyingthenest]

[@aokiaoki4238]

[@achilleas1975i]

Guys that was amazing! Miss Jess, Miss Cleo; You two ladies could cause the launch of 10,000 ships. :)

[@theodoreleher6186]

Awesome what an experience you've had all the beat .

[@charliek9895]

I’m getting married in Greece next year! Are dresses cheaper in Greece than here (Perth)? What sort of budget would be needed for custom made? I’m hesitant to leave it last minute but your Vlog made it look like a breeze! Thank you 💕💕💕💕

[@flyingthenest]

So our friend Sophie runs the Atelier Zolotas Australia branch, I can give you her details if you like? Shes in Perth though

[@charliek9895]

Flying The Nest I think I just found them on IG! Thank you!

[@lorrainemorris5601]

Lovely video, so happy you guys are sharing with us.

[@ChillyDunk]

Happy wedding day!!!!!!!

[@flyingthenest]

Thanks man :)

[@hippygram]

First, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Second, amazed it only took 2 days for the dress. In the US it would take at least 6 months to a year.

[@flyingthenest]

VG was kind enough to get the dress done express! it took about 3 days in total of them working on it :) I don't think this was a normal order but I am sure if you need it in 3 days he could do it for anyone!

[@THU350]

i usually dislike wedding dresses, they all seem to look the same but those i like.

[@flyingthenest]

I think thats why Jess gravitated towards them :) very unique!

[@AshleyLynnn05]

Wow amazing !!!😍

[@nicolestephenso6844]

Oh that's beautiful how exciting

[@sparkygiirl]

[@stephaniedemetrios5951]

[@martinstravels9594]

Do Australians not find it bad luck for the groom to see the wedding dress before the wedding?
