Bridal Styling by Elena Kokologiannis Make-up & Hair – from Stuttgart to beautiful Piedmont
As a bridal stylist, I've had the privilege of helping many women on their big day—but my first destination wedding in Italy was something truly special.
From a leisurely road trip to styling sessions at the gorgeous Giarvino Guest House, and even a little vacation afterward—this trip was pure inspiration and a wonderful reminder of the magic of my profession. ✨
🚗 A Relaxing Trip to Piedmont
I set off the day before the wedding—taking it easy in my car from Stuttgart toward Italy.
No stress, no rush—just the excitement of a new experience and a special bridal look amidst Italian vineyards.
After spending the night in Acqui Terme, I arrived at the venue the next day feeling well-rested and full of energy—ready for an unforgettable wedding day.
💄 Bridal Styling at the Giarvino Guest House
The Giarvino Guest House was simply a dream: an idyllic villa surrounded by rolling hills, vineyards, and that typical Italian tranquility that you feel right away.
There, I had the opportunity to style my bride's hair, and four of her guests received hairstyles that were individually tailored and perfectly suited to their personalities.
The atmosphere was relaxed, warm, and full of anticipation. As the sun streamed through the windows, natural, fresh looks emerged that perfectly complemented the Mediterranean ambiance.
I love moments like these—when laughter, lightheartedness, and beauty come together so naturally. That’s exactly why I do this job. 💕
🌸 A Touch of Dolce Vita
After the photo shoot, I stayed another night with my family in Acqui Terme, a charming Italian spa town with plenty of character.
A stroll through the alleys, delicious food in the evening sun—and the joy of a perfect wedding day.
The next morning, we headed straight out—from the wedding celebration to our vacation.
A perfect blend of work, passion, and a zest for life. 🇮🇹
💕 My Conclusion
This first destination wedding in Italy was a labor of love for me.
She has shown me how wonderful it is to accompany brides not only in Stuttgart, but also in the most beautiful places in Europe.
I'm grateful that my bridal styling allows me to be a part of such special moments—whether in Germany or under the Italian sun. ☀️
