Kirsten & Gonzalo — Rhodes 2027

01

How we got here

It started with
a little boat.

Rhodes has always been special to us. Kirsten spent so many summers there that she probably knows the island better than the Netherlands, and Gonzalo was sold pretty much immediately.

On one of our first visits together, we rented a tiny tourist boat for a few hours, found a little secret bay and spent the afternoon swimming and drinking. Somewhere along the way we said: how nice would it be to have our own boat one day? Well… that escalated quickly. That little boat trip turned into buying our own boat, moving aboard straight away and, three boats later, making the sea our home. So getting married in Rhodes just made sense. One special island, one beautiful day, and all our favourite people. ❤️

The way we do life: together, free and a little unpredictable — and that is how this day should feel.

The celebration

Meet us by the sea.
We will take it from there.

Everyone is invited for the full celebration. The ceremony, dinner and party all happen in one special place on the east coast of Rhodes.

The location is still a surprise

Be ready at 15:00

We will share the meeting point and final route closer to the wedding. From there, the afternoon and evening unfold together.

The mood

Relaxed, intimate and very us. Good food, good music, lots of laughter and a long evening by the sea.

02

What to wear

The final dress code is coming soon. Festive, but comfortable. There are plenty of steps and some uneven ground, so maybe leave the impossible shoes at home.

03

Families

Little ones are very welcome to celebrate with us.

Getting to Rhodes

First the flight.
