Your Dream Greek Wedding Starts Here

The total depends on the island, season, guest count, venue, travel, and the services you choose. Ask venues and suppliers for itemised quotes, confirm what taxes and extras are included, and keep a contingency for transport or weather changes.

There is no single best island. Compare the atmosphere you want with venue availability, guest travel, accommodation, local transport, accessibility, and seasonal conditions. Our island guides can help you build a shortlist before contacting venues.

A planner is optional, but local coordination can be useful when you are arranging a wedding from abroad or using several suppliers. Decide based on how much planning you want to handle, the venue support included, and the complexity of guest travel and events.

Requirements depend on your nationality, residency, ceremony type, and the municipality involved, and they can change. Confirm the current document, translation, legalisation, and timing requirements directly with the relevant Greek municipality and your embassy or consulate before making plans.

Choose a date around the experience you want and the conditions on your chosen island. Consider heat, wind, rain plans, ferry and flight schedules, local events, venue availability, and guest comfort rather than relying on a single Greece-wide rule.

Capacity varies by venue and by the layout used for your ceremony and reception. Check the seated and standing limits, accessibility, transport, nearby accommodation, curfews, and the venue’s wet-weather alternative before confirming your guest list.

Beach ceremonies are available in some locations, but access and permissions depend on the venue, beach, and local authority. Confirm the rules with the operator or municipality and plan for public access, wind, heat, sound limits, footwear, and an indoor or sheltered backup.

Start once you know your preferred island, approximate guest count, budget, and date range. Popular dates and venues can have less availability, so secure the venue and essential suppliers before asking guests to make travel arrangements.
