In the heart of summer, under the bright Greek sky, a christening unfolded that combined childhood wonder with timeless elegance. The event, inspired by the Royal navy and the charm of a paper boat, was designed and styled by Anna-Maria Rogdaki and the Rogdaki Events team. The result was a story told through shades of blue, natural textures, and handcrafted details that celebrated innocence and imagination.
A Nautical Dream
Set by the sea, the christening radiated calm and sophistication. The color palette featured soft whites, deep navy, and sandy neutrals, evoking the feeling of the Mediterranean breeze. Every design element reflected precision and poetry, true to the refined aesthetic that defines Rogdaki Events.
Guests arrived to find handmade paper boats, symbolic of adventure and dreams, carefully arranged among shells, ropes, and glass jars filled with white blooms. The balance between simplicity and artistry made the space both inviting and memorable.
The Ceremony and Celebration
Family and friends gathered in an atmosphere filled with love and gentle excitement. The baptism ceremony was heartfelt, marked by purity and joy. Afterwards, guests moved to a beautifully curated reception area overlooking the water.
Tables were adorned with linen runners, wooden accents, and floral compositions in crisp white and blue. Delicate sailing motifs appeared across the stationery, sweets, and favors, tying every element together in harmony.
The Details that Made the Difference
A custom dessert table became the heart of the reception, featuring elegant pastries, miniature sailboats, and maritime decorations that echoed the theme.
Each sweet was created with care, transforming tradition into a modern design story. The overall result was sophisticated yet playful, a hallmark of Anna-Maria Rogdaki’s creative approach.
Children played by the water’s edge while adults relaxed, enjoying an atmosphere of serenity, love, and understated luxury.
