  1. Spectacular sunsets

Greece is home to some of the world's best sunsets! If you are dreaming of exchanging your vows whilst the orange & pink hues fill the sky then islands like Santorini and Crete are perfect for you. Offering late afternoon weddings to make the most of the sunset or marry mid-afternoon and wine, dine & party with your guests as the sun is setting in Zante & Rhodes! 

  1. Extravagant & Budget-friendly, there is a venue for every couple! 

Greece is home to many islands which offer a different type of experience for couples. If you are looking for an elegant & elaborate venue that will wow your guests then Santorini offers you the dream wedding. Alternatively, if you are looking for something more laid back, rustic, and ‘budget friendly’ then Zante & Rhodes have beautiful options for you!

  1. Short flight times 

With an average of 3 & a half hours flight time, this is a great option for couples with young children or elderly guests who aren’t keen on flying too far from the UK! With many low-cost airlines with routes to most islands, this is a great budget-friendly option for you & your guests.

  1. Great food!

Greece is famous for its delicious cuisine, with a wide range of menu choices for your wedding and chefs who will work with many different dietary requirements Greece is a great option for all. If you love the idea of a sit-down Meze meal with traditional Greek dishes paired with local wines or a BBQ buffet where you and your guests can mingle together, then Greece has everything you can dream of! 

  1. Religious, Legal, and Symbolic wedding ceremonies are available.

Within Greece, there are many types of ceremonies that you can opt for as a couple. You can legally marry in many venues after completing a legal paperwork process here in the UK. If you are trying to keep costs down then you can sign your marriage certificate here in the UK before traveling and have a symbolic blessing in Greece, both ceremonies are performed exactly the same so your guests won’t even know the difference! Another option is a religious ceremony, many Greek chapels can offer a Greek Orthodox wedding ceremony or a Catholic wedding!
