MICHAELA & OLIVER

ON THE FIELD.

A lush meadow overlooking the Šumava Mountains became the setting for the wedding of two creative souls, ceramist Michaela and artistic plasterer Oliver. The engagement took place literally on the other side of the world, during a holiday on the island of Bali. Oliver had his engagement ring mailed to him there, just to make sure that fate was on his side. In any case, fortune was not to be thwarted and the ring reached its destination with a slight delay. Nothing stood in the way of the wedding, unless we count the difficult pandemic conditions. But Míša and Oliver also turned the unfavourable situation into an advantage, at least they had time to make the grounds more comfortable, prepare the decorations and prepare original accommodation for the family - tents with a shelter! "We wanted a relaxed wedding in a family environment in connection with nature, in the spirit of Balkan and Roma culture, no forced traditions or organized entertainment. The atmosphere was perfectly complemented by the Balkan-Roma band, which made all the guests incredibly happy." The sunny outdoor setting also inspired the wedding decorations, including the bouquet, cake and groom's corsage - the meadow flowers in all their variety and diversity brightened the wedding while connecting it to the picturesque surroundings. The civil ceremony took place under a flowing ceremony gate and on a carpet that seemed about to take off with the newlyweds. There was no danger of boredom and stereotype in this case - as long as the person getting married is in his or her place, there is no need to worry, as the young couple can confirm. After the ceremony, we said our vows, which were led by our friend," says Míša. The wedding in the countryside went well with everything and now more beautiful experiences await. The family will enjoy them in three.
