When Elina and Wade dreamed of their wedding in Helsinki, they envisioned a day filled with modern elegance and Helsinki’s unmistakable urban vibe. From the iconic steps of Helsinki Cathedral to the understated luxury of the Rake Sali ballroom at Klaus K Hotel, each moment reflected their style: contemporary, artful, and beautifully minimal.

The day began high above Helsinki, in the Sky Balcony Suite at Klaus K Hotel. Here, Elina and her bridesmaids prepared for the day, surrounded by Scandinavian design and expansive urban views. The suite felt like a peaceful retreat, yet it buzzed with excitement and anticipation.

It was a moment where art met life, and Helsinki’s creative spirit became a part of Elina and Wade’s visual story.

Helsinki Cathedral Wedding

When Elina and Wade exchanged vows at Helsinki Cathedral, there was a profound sense of timelessness. It felt as though the walls of Tuomiokirkko themselves bore witness to something sacred. Their ceremony was both elegant and moving – a testament to the love that brought them across continents to this iconic landmark in Helsinki.
