A Diamond Friendship and Partnership

"Fra, I am ready to finish for the day, the children are waiting for me. I will answer the catering email once I am home, ok?" said Sarah.

"No problem, I will continue my research for the flowers until the girls arrive" replied Frantseska. 

"So many years have gone by, can you believe how much we have accomplished? Our families grew, our professions developed and now we have our own business which involves creating happy memories! Could it get any better?" said Sarah.

"It can always get better! See you tomorrow." replied Frantseska. 

And so a normal day in office finishes and we can start our other beloved "job" which is being with our family. We both have two young children each and give a great importance to our family's union. 





The positive and understanding work environment we have accomplished comes from a 15 year strong friendship which also resulted in a successful business partnership.  





We apply to our relationships with our clients the same care, attention and respect that we have between each other. This is why we end up becoming good friends with our clients.





We both come from multicultural backgrounds and have a great passion for travelling. This has made us very familiar with different cultures throughout the world and are at ease communicating in a effective and cultural sensitive way with people from different nationalities and mentalities. 








Frantseska Tsebelis comes from a Greek-Italian family. She is an talented architect and interior designer with over 16 years of experience and is partner in Oikos Architecture. 




She is passionate for decoration and colours. With her unique creativity, she designs elegant and special events which are always focused on her clients' wishes. A perfect example of her good taste is her own home, where our office is located.







Sarah Carpenter is a Belgian fashion designer. She is married to a Greek and has been living in Greece for 20 years now. She is a partner in 4 retail fashion boutiques in Santorini (Spicy Boutique & The Lace). 



Her love for fashion and natural talent  for details ensures perfect results. Her patience and listening skills always make our clients feel at ease.




So bringing our talents together and our know-how in different areas, we created "The Diamond Rock" in order to express our creativity and business skills and create magical memories for our dear clients. The Diamond Rock is a boutique event planning company based in Santorini.

We also have a beautiful and exclusive venue (The Diamond Rock Venue) which has a lovely villa attached to it (The Architect's House). This combination of having the venue and the villa in the same location grants our clients the utmost privacy during their stay.







With our solid experience and talents, we promise our clients spectacular solutions and unforgettable moments.

Come share your dream with us!

Wedding tradition and superstition explained



Wearing a Veil:
This custom originated in Rome when a bride would wear a veil down the aisle to disguise herself from evil spirits who were jealous of her happiness.


Seeing each other before the wedding:
This superstition dates back, when people believed that if the couple saw each ither before the ceremony, it would give them a chance to change their minds about the wedding.


Rain on your wedding day:
In some cultures,rain on your wedding day symbolizes fertility and cleansing.


Carring the bride over  the threshold:
It's a superstition that began in medieval Europe. To avoid bringing in any evil spirits, the groom carried the bride into their new home.


Breaking glass:
In Italy,the couple smashes a vase or a glass at their wedding, and they put a lot of muscle into it,too.
The tradition says that however many pieces the glassware breaks into will symbolize how many years they'll be happily married.


Crying on your wedding day:
It is supposed to be good luck because it sybolizes that she has shed all her tears and will not have any to shed during her marriage.So go ahead and get teary-eyed.just be sure to wear some waterproof mascara.....
