Madeleine herself designed her bridesmaids’ baby blue corset dresses. “I had a very specific vision in mind, so that left me with one option—to make my bridesmaid dresses myself,” she says. “I have always been a hobby seamstress and have made my own looks for a few red-carpet events before, so I decided to give it a go. I have to admit they did end up taking a lot longer than I anticipated—each dress took me around 30 hours to construct and hand-embellish—but it was totally worth it. My bridesmaids looked beyond stunning and now they are the first—and hopefully not last—to ever have a bespoke Madeleine White dress.”

As golden hour settled upon Santorini, Madeleine met Andrew above the caldera. Both bride and groom admit they found themselves deeply emotional during the ceremony; Madeleine recalls trembling as she read her vows. Andrew, meanwhile, teared up as he read aloud his journal entry from the first day they met back in 2020: “I think I just met a girl who will change my life.”

Afterward, a cocktail and dinner were held on the villa’s stone balcony at sunset, which florist Bloom de Fleur and wedding planners Samkoma.world transformed into a Grecian garden. The bride changed into a backless halter gown by Berta.

After speeches from both of their fathers, as well as Andrew’s business partner Joe, the couple had a surprise for their guests: a live performance by Natasha Bedingfield, who played hits like “Pocket Full of Sunshine” and “Unwritten.” Next, vocalist Morgan St. Jean, the couple’s friend, sang their first-dance song, “Sure Thing” by Miguel. (Madeleine wore a pair of butterfly shoes by fashion student Youssef Nagib, whom she found on TikTok.)

Dancing—and plate smashing—ensued, until the night grew late enough for an after-party. “We transported everybody down to the beach a few minutes away, which we transformed into Club Fedyk,” the bride said. “We had late-night food stands dedicated to each of our pets, as well as donuts, pizza, and a poutine bar. Explaining poutine to the Greek caterers was not an easy feat, but they nailed it.”

Madeleine underwent her third outfit change of the evening: a pink chain-mail dress from Fendi and Versace’s famous Fendace collaboration. It was a nod to her TikTok creator origins. “Anyone who’s been following me for a long time knows that one of my first viral videos ever was trying to DIY the Versace spring 1999 chain-mail dress,” she says. “It felt like fate when, around a year before the wedding, I got a text from a friend in Toronto that Dawn at Rewind Couture had gotten in this one-off Fendi x Versace collab.”

Andrew, meanwhile, was hyperfocused on one aspect in particular: the music. After holding a contest on TikTok, he hired Sweatbaby, a DJ from Australia. (Although the groom couldn’t help but put some headphones on: “Andrew swore he was not going to DJ and he would take the night off, but that didn’t exactly work out,” Madeleine says, laughing. “I could not drag him off the decks at the end of the night.”) The couple and their guests stayed out until 4:30 in the morning.

As the rest of their party headed to bed, Madeleine and Andrew stayed up until the sun rose. “We got into bed on our wedding night just in complete disbelief at what an amazing time we had,” the bride says. “I couldn’t sleep for hours, just replaying all the amazing moments and trying to make sure I remembered everything.”

When asked days later about how they were feeling about the milestone, it’s clear the wedding weekend dust still hasn’t settled: “We are still reeling from just the best weekend of our lives,” Madeleine says.
