Start dreaming about your nuptials, chose your bridal gown
and costume, and don’t worry about a thing. Here you will find detailed answers
to your questions.
What kind of wedding
ceremonies take place on Santorini?
Civil ceremonies are held in almost any location you choose. Greek Orthodox
ceremonies take place in Cathedrals and chapels; Catholic ones at the Cathedral
of Saint John the Baptist in the town of Firá, and Jewish weddings can be
conducted as well as a rabbi is also available. If you are already married but
want to relive the romantic atmosphere of your marriage ceremony, our wedding
planners can also create the perfect setting for you to renew your wedding
vows. Due to the fact that couples come from all over the world, civil weddings
are bilingual, in Greek and English. When necessary, interpreters for other
languages as well as sign language interpreters are available.

So, which are these locations we have been talking about?
The island of Santorini loves weddings and many sites are geared up to ensuring that all that is required of you is to arrive and enjoy the big day. Restaurants and hotels with sprawling patios, and beachside tavernas host fabulous weddings, wedding meals, and receptions, which you can ride to on one of the island’s resident donkeys. For a smaller, more intimate affair, there’s no better place to celebrate than at one of the small hotels set along the rim of the Caldera. Here, couples can marry on one of the several terraces or inside a vaulted cave with the sunset, the volcano, the sea and the surrounding islets as a backdrop. On Santorini you can even choose to tie the knot at remote locations, away from the confines of a banqueting hall: volcanic beaches, vineyards, or even boats provide the ideal scenery for those who wish to put their own, distinctive signature on their nuptial ceremony. If you want to carry on celebrating after the event you can dance the night away at one of the island’s clubs.

But “excellence is in the details”, as the saying goes.
For your wedding bouquet and the groom's buttonhole choose from a selection of local flowers. (Some tips: try an exuberantly colourful floral arrangement of stargazer lilies and red roses; colourful Euphorbia flowers, yellow roses, lilium pink and blue liatris, etc.). Your wedding coordinators will cater for the reception menu, as well as the cake. The ring: purchase it from one of the island’s jewellery stores. For your reception ceremony, different kinds of live bands are available for your dream wedding party.
