That might as well be Nathalie Mazloum's mantra and reason for ditching a posh multinational research corporation qualitative psychologist status for love, family, and the one job that unites them both.
Following a Bachelor’s of Science & Marketing and a Master's of Science in Occupational & Organisational Psychology, her 5 years of work in Athens turned into one big learning curve. It was not until she ventured off into something completely different that she really began to reassess her boundaries and began to expand them in the most life-impacting ways.
Fast forward 20 years later and with a proven record of successful events under her belt Simply Unique is so much more than her brainchild. A trailblazer for life's best moments made perfect with design, artful details and innovative concepts, the constant pursuit of making a difference in the way love is celebrated is her driving force.
A mother at heart and in life, she's convinced that being a caretaker and viewing everyone from this loving perspective is not simply a calling but a testament to touching people's lives and making them better in every way possible.
Always at ease in any sensory environment, whether at home with the loves of her life or at work creating beauty to spruce up lives in love, her delectable take on celebrating life with intent sums itself up in a single expression...
"You choose to live a life that's quirky and wonderful, a life you're proud of with the ones that make your soul dance and your heart skip a beat."
MEET THE FOUNDER & CREATOR
Her early years were all about Parisian toits, the pockmarked with romance arrondissements of the French capital, where the first seeds of living a life in style were sown amidst gardens, boulevards and rosy light that refuses to set.

It takes a road-less-travelled-loving bride to dream up of a floral design for her big day, and a forward-thinking wedding flower-guru like Aspa Danilou to make it happen.
She'll easily bring together fresh herbs to create olfactory poems paired artfully to bloom architecture and a serious sense of space that our clients love. A folk dancer with old-soul wisdom and inner resourcefulness who loves to keep everything in her floral world labeled, melding her sensible and savvy nature with the most creatively satisfying visual styling.
For Aspa, it's ongoing inspiration, cloudlike wisps, delicate stems, and botanical influences from Greece and the world around.

If visual optimism had a human smile that would be Aline's. A former dancing-coach and an avid believer you can never watch too many movies, her powerhouse attitude won't stop with simply communicating the needs of our clients to vendors.
Her lead coordinating charisma has righteously won her the dub "Extra Mile" as there is no length she will hesitate before in order to make things happen. An incredible rock for our brides and grooms to lean on at any time.
Client calls, listings and utterly unique findings are a serious incentive for Aline Mazloum to get up in the morning.

For Mara Papathanasiou detail orientation is a "one-way-street". Always in the know, but never bragging about it, Mara is the go-to designer and lead coordinator to get the job done and get your schedule rolling seamlessly.
She's a girl boss emotionally invested in our projects and her drive is relentless for everything pretty, whether it's something new, something borrowed or something blue.
You will be hard-pressed to find a more devoted, detail driven companion to make your big day shine in a number of unique and imaginative ways.

With four gorgeous and constantly on the go ladies around the Simply Unique headquarters, an understated air of cool competence and cordial demeanor you'd expect from a professional praetorian is highly required.
My SAMCRO name arrived because I'm a "teller" of epicurean delights and a highway-born looker with a heart of gold. If you ever decide to tie the knot in Greece, paws up! because I have some... Simply Unique... etiquette on the Journal * on how to get your pupper involved in your wedding. You want to know something really personal? ... Last night I dreamt of bacon!
My noble bearing and protector skills go back to ancient Rome which means I'm your perfect gent at weddings, not to mention my welcome committee expertise and morale management moxie.

Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably and never regret anything that makes you smile.
Joy-filled, sparkling and heartwarming -whether intimate or shared- our purpose as event creators is to celebrate life, build excitement and a legacy that lasts.
Destination Weddings are our trademark.
A Simply Unique multi-pronged approach
A journey that you get to grow and mature with, our Greece is so much more than a wedding destination. Its stories are our love language, our heritage.
Offering the incredible opportunity to intersect your love story with the greatest adventures, means a custom scheme for not only what it looks like but what it feels like to marry the love of your life in a spectacular setting.
Our philosophy is all about the substance of tailored events married with acumen. And it's that spirit and exquisite beauty of walking the line (and down the aisle) that keep us on our toes. We provide complete wedding planning services, coordination and design for couples who wish their special occasion to have their fingerprints all over while an experienced team pays attention to ALL of the parts in motion.
Today’s brides and grooms are looking for timeless, powerful, modern elegance and that's exactly what we aim to achieve. Inspired by your vision, curiosity and candor we ensure there is zero compromise in esthetics even with the most eclectic material choices. We go beyond typical expectations with determination that the modern bride is a force to be reckoned with, kind, brilliant, capable, prepared, unique.
We are headquartered in Athens, the glorious violet-crowned city. Taken simultaneously away and inspired to create both through its new streamers and wild beauty, sun-drenched shores and design-forward heavens, our Greece is a mishmash of glorious past and propitious present. It's party-mad and cosmopolitan, romantic and captivating, perfect for the bohemian set, the foodies, for modern nomads and elegance seekers.
You'd be hard-pressed to find a destination so multifaceted anywhere on the globe and we count ourselves lucky to be able to help our destination wedding couples and their guests discover its secrets and bask in its splendor. Wish us to spoil you with tiptop wedding venues and unadulterated natural beauty and decadent experiences?

OUR PHILOSOPHY
OUR HERITAGE
CONNECT WITH US
2 Capricorns + 2 Pisces = 4 caffeine addicts, yogis, dancers, life lovers & high fivers who will go above and beyond to design, style, plan and manage your projects. Our vim? An outward mindset, the conviction that nobody gets there until they get there and that history is not made for humans, but by humans.
We joyfully celebrate honesty, believing the best for our clients, never giving up on their goals because much like in Love, our job is to be gentle and consistently kind to all. The way we see it, a wedding is not only a party but a union, so before we crack open the champagne we need to be bold, brave and venture forth in giving ourselves wholeheartedly through thick and thin!
WORKING WITH A TEAM OF WEDDING PLANNING EXPERTS
Employing design as a narrative and the responsibility to combine facts and personal values, each of our events is tailored to show your provenance story through each part of the celebration.
OUR VISION
Think sun-lit terraces and hip Athens Riviera resorts, a Lake ensconced in the heart of Athens City, Monemvasia Byzantine mansions, peach-hued, stone-built and pasty cubist Cycladic islands enclosed by rugged cliffs and lapping, blue waves.
We love Hydra and Spetses for their art crowd vibes, Porto Heli for its languid cosmopolitan scene, Paros and Naxos for their epicurean experiences, the glitzy feel of Mykonos and Santorini, Tinos for its dovecotes and ancient ruins.
Ios' cinematic sundowns soothe our vista-thirsty cells. Sifnos makes us dream with its changing light kissing the landscape. Antiparos fulfills our wedding wanderlust, while Leros' stark windmills and ancient fortress make us pulse with enterprise.
Our days around these parts are filled with white-sand goodness, terraced olive groves, citrus gardens, oleander bushes and bougainvillea cascades, but if we want to be honest about it there is no place in Greece we would not follow our couples to make their Greece wedding a remarkable experience.
OUR DESTINATIONS
Getting married in Greece is arguably akin to popping candy for the senses. Fanned by the Grecian breeze you can almost taste this wedding destination's rich culture, history and timeless charm.
