KEIJUN UNTA
The forest beckons you to touch the moss, walk on the crunchy leaves of late autumn, enjoy the scents and sleep the light sleep of a fairy.
Fairy whispering
as the evening takes its delicate, silent flights
The little forest fairies with flowers in their hair,
in their white, inaudible dresses
from one mossy mound to another, returning home from their day's activities..
Humming softly, enchanting with their songs, quieting the forest.
Fairy dust glistening, fragrant with flowers
sprinkling with their pale fingers
Fairy's gentle whisper,
"Swim into the sweet night, close your petals... Swim into the green, fragrant..."
The dew of pearls glistening, a new dawn
In the fog of Utis, the fairies comb their hair
new flowers to crown
The magical forest awakes, a new day rising
The children, nimble-footed, bouncing from one stone to another,
laughing in their blueberry bushes.
In the enchanted forest of Sheep Hill, something peeps behind the bog..
Was it the fairy's hamlet or the hairpiece, the fluttering of little wings?
Or was it all a dream, the fairy blooming in her hair? "
Nadja Mäkinen (2015)
THE MAGIC OF THE TABLE
The highlight of the party is, of course, the bridal couple, but the finished set leaves every celebrant with a taste for beauty as well as a taste for flavour.
UNDER THE ARCH
Experiences are created by atmosphere and atmosphere is created by sensitivity, aesthetics and nature's own ingredients.
IN THE CAVES OF THE LAVA
Dinner is a meeting of crystal and gold, silver and smoke, the greenery and flavours of the forest, the atmospheric light of candles and soft tallow.
BLINDED BY THE BEAUTY OF THE CAKE
Amidst the greenery, a delicious culmination of dinner shines. The brightness of the cake rivals the glamour of the wedding dress.
AS THE EVENING COOLS DOWN
The beautiful furs inherited from the family keep you warm as the evening cools down. All that's left is to throw the bridal bouquet.
