It was a big, beautiful Greek wedding for Million Dollar Listing: New York’s Ryan Serhant and Emilia Bechrakis. The Bravo star and Bechrakis, whose family is from Greece, were recently married on the island of Corfu surrounded by 150 close friends and family. Ryan Serhant had proposed to Emilia two years ago by shutting down Times Square in New York and writing ’S’agapo’ in one of the billboards.

After a week of wedding festivities, designed by celebrity event planner Kevin Lee, guests journeyed by boat to the ceremony. Wearing a Mediterranean blue tux by VK Nagrani, Serhant and Bechrakis, who wore a champagne strapless gown by Romona Keveža, were wed in the Pontikonisi church. The two observed Greek traditions including exchanging crowns.
“From the moment I met Emilia, I knew it would be pretty incredible to do it in Greece and be surrounded by everyone close to us,” Serhant told PEOPLE. “But I did have a few ideas that are not transpiring. I originally wanted six Apache helicopters to fly in and drop me and my brothers down into the wedding.”
Bechrakis says it was most important for her to have the ceremony in a Greek church “and ideally in Greece. I’m more of an intimate wedding kind of person but I’m marrying Ryan so it’s a lot bigger than it would have been.”
Following the ceremony, where guests were entertained by a quartet and lit sparklers to celebrate the couple’s union, Serhant, 31, and Bechrakis held court at a reception at the private Villa Kanoni. Featuring a menu of chilled soup, risotto with summer truffle, goat cheese salad and roasted lamb, the dinner included toasts made by the wedding party to the bride and groom, music by DJ Spartakos and was capped off by fireworks at the end of the night. Serhant, who owns a real estate agency and caters for some of the biggest Hollywood stars, says it is a good time to invest in Greece. Now he has one more reason to do so.
