A Kosher Wedding on the Water with Israeli Vibes at Base Events, Paphos, Cyprus

by

Sarah and Daniel, Base Events, Paphos, Cyprus

Here it is, our last real Jewish wedding of 2025 – and have we got a special one to share with you today! Like so many couples, UK-based Sarah and Daniel dreamed of getting married in Israel, but due to the war they ended up pivoting and relocating things to Cyprus.

With the help of their fantastic wedding planner, Noam of Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Kai Wedding Planners, Sarah and Daniel were able to bring so much of what they love about Israel into their big day. Being Israeli himself, Noam was perfectly positioned to help the couple do just that – and their celebration at Base Events in Paphos really did have the feel of one of those fabulous Israeli seaside weddings we all know and love. Noam even sourced kosher-certified catering for Sarah and Daniel!

Photographers Eitan Van and Kryiakos Hadjiiordanis captured all the love and emotion of the day so perfectly – do read on for the rest of the story in Sarah’s own words…

A Halfpenny London Bride for a Winter Chic Jewish Wedding at St Pancras Renaissance, London, UK

by

Gaby and Brad, St Pancras Renaissance, London, UK

We love a winter Jewish wedding, and London couple Gaby, who works in marketing, and Brad, who’s in recruitment, had a truly fabulous one!

The pair knew going into it that they wanted a celebration that didn’t look like every other wedding, and did they ever pull it off.

The majestic St Pancras Renaissance was the perfect spot for their special day, which featured colorful flowers, a stunner of a gown by Halfpenny London, and a trademark epic performance by Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Ambassador Band. Gingerbeard Wedding captured it all so beautifully – read on for the rest of the story in Gaby’s own words!

Gaby, the bride: Brad’s best mate (and best man at the wedding) is my brother. He and his wife decided to set us up, thinking we’d be a great match.
