Venue
Villa Vale
From McDonald’s to Mountains
Not every great love story begins in a golden-lit vineyard or a glamorous city, some start in a McDonald’s in Shanghai. Camille and Kosta’s first conversation happened over an order screen, where she translated the menu for him. He was supposed to be in Shanghai for only two more days, but fate (and Kosta’s boldness) had other plans. From that serendipitous meeting, their love zigzagged across continents, Phuket, Taiwan, Melbourne, Perth, Bali, London, until it finally landed here, in the mountains of Chiang Mai, for a wedding that was as heartfelt as it was unrestrained.
A Villa Out of a Storybook
Villa Vale, their chosen venue, was pure magic: a charming, cottage-like estate set between mountains, with a waterfall behind the villa and sprawling green lawns that seemed to roll on forever. It was nearly 90 minutes from the city center, but that distance only added to its enchantment, the kind of place where time slows, laughter carries on the wind, and guests feel like they’ve stepped into a private world.
Camille and Kosta didn’t just want a wedding; they wanted an experience. They also opted for our top-up package, ensuring that every moment was captured not just digitally but also on film, giving their gallery the kind of warmth and timelessness that fits their love story perfectly.
Morning Craziness and Quiet Tears
The day began in a whirlwind of champagne glasses, robe-clad bridesmaids, and heartfelt vows written in secret corners of the villa. Both the bridal party and the groomsmen brought the perfect mix of chaos and support, someone was always laughing, someone else tearing up. The tone was set early: yes, it was a wedding, but it was also a day to be fully themselves.
Fried Mifen 炒米粉 & Full Hearts
One moment that will stay with us forever came right before the ceremony, when Camille’s mother, a gentle, big-hearted Taiwanese mom, casually asked Kosta if he wanted his favorite fried mifen 炒米粉. No fuss, no formality, just the kind of everyday care you’d expect from a loving family. It was such a small gesture, yet it perfectly captured the heart of this wedding: warm, unpretentious, and filled with the kind of love that makes you feel instantly at home. Yes, it was a wedding, a real, serious wedding, but in their world, it was also just another beautiful day together… only this time, everyone happened to be in tuxes and gowns.
A Ceremony in the Green
On the villa’s vast lawn, framed by flowers and the soft rush of the nearby waterfall, Camille and Kosta exchanged vows in front of their closest friends and family. The backdrop was all shades of green, kissed by the mountain breeze. Their promises were met with tears, applause, and the occasional whoop from the bridal party, proof that this was a celebration in every sense of the word.
Dinner, Dancing, and the Pool
As day turned to night, dinner tables stretched across the lawn, lit by the soft glow of string lights. Plates overflowed with food, glasses were never empty, and every toast seemed to end with both laughter and applause. The dancing began quickly, with guests spilling onto the grass, unbothered by heels or hems.
Then came the moment no one will forget: the unplanned grand finale. As the night wound down, Camille, Kosta, and their guests, still dressed in gowns, tuxes, and suits, leapt into the swimming pool, champagne glasses held high, singing into the Chiang Mai night. The mountains echoed back their joy, and it felt like the whole world was clinking glasses with them.
