Beach wedding in Greece

If you're looking for a truly unique beach wedding we may have the ultimate answer. Your own beach, on your own private beach bar, without the 'millionaires only' price tag!
Imagine heading to your big day aboard your own personal powerboat, you and up to 50 guests skimming across crystal blue waters to your own personal island for the day. Well, its not an impossible dream!
If your own private beach wedding doesn't seem quite memorable enough, there are options to make it even more of a once in a lifetime day. While the thrill of a powerboat ride to your venue is pretty unique, you can take it a step further, and arrive in style (with maybe your husband or wife to be) with a private air taxi and experience the true beauty of the surrounding islands and waters from above on the way.

After the sun sets in a blaze of colour, you may well feel like you never want to leave this paradise, so why not send your guests back to the mainland, and retire to the luxury honeymoon villa, enjoying the romance of this idyllic setting for a night or two.

Spend your days relaxing on the beach, exploring the island, or snorkelling over untouched reef before heading back from this once-in-a-lifetime wedding experience to reintegrate yourselves into the 'real' world - that will never be quite the same again!

Top 10 wedding tips for brides

1. Starting six months prior to your wedding day, have a facial once a month to ensure a radiant complexion.
2. Adopt a healthy eating and regular exercise regime. Also, remember to drink lots of water and herbal teas.
3. If you are spray tanning for your wedding, trial the product or professional service first to be certain you are going to like the end result. A bad spray tan can look tragic, whereas a good one looks fabulous.
4. Do not neglect your hands and feet. Frequent manicures and pedicures are a must. Clean your engagement ring and any other jewellery you will be wearing.
5. Check your wedding gown fits perfectly prior to it leaving the store. Ensure all beading is sewn on securely, zips work and, if needs be, somewhere for you to hang your train so you are free to dance the night away. Another pearl of wisdom is to also try on your gown with the undergarments you intend to wear on your wedding day to ensure they fit perfectly under your dress
6. If you are wearing a strapless gown, take your bra off at least three hours before the photographer’s arrival on your wedding day. Bra strap marks stay embedded in the skin for a long time and look unsightly in photographs.
7. Delegate a trouble-shooter with good people and organisational skills to oversee and deal with any unexpected hitches on the day (touch wood). You do not need the added stress.
8. Confirm hair and make-up artists at least a month before your big day.
9. While getting ready do not forget to eat. Pack straws and organise bite-size portions of food to be available so eating and drinking will not spoil your make-up.
10. The beauty preparations before the wedding ceremony and celebrations are a very important part of your day. Enjoy all the pampering and attention. Have some Rescue Remedy (available from all good health food shops) on hand in case you need to calm nervous butterflies. Make sure you have a compact and lipstick for touch-ups.

Beach weddings in Greece

If you have your heart set on a beach wedding, Greece can accommodate in style. Including its island coasts, the coastline of Greece is officially given as 13,676 kilometres, so you can imagine all the available options to celebrate your very special day with family and friends. 

Because of the number of hotels on the water, a beach wedding in Greece can be more than simply saying “I do" and heading off to celebrate elsewhere -- many couples choose to have their entire wedding close to the sea.
One popular option is to exchange vows on the beach, move to a hotel veranda or a lounge beach for the cocktail hour, and then head inside for a more formal reception. Luxury yachts are another exciting option for a wedding reception party.  Contact us now for your free wedding consultation and find out more about your Beach Wedding in the Greek islands!

Planning your Honeymoon...

Santorini, Greece, the perfect location for a destination wedding and memorable honeymoon

Your honeymoon is the most important holiday of your life, and planning it can be a stressful task for any couple: where to go, when to go, when to start planning, etc - so many questions! Luckily for us, we have asked honeymoon experts Travel and Hospitality Services  for their insider tips to de-stress your honeymoon planning… 

1)Start as early as possible. Scheduled flights can only be confirmed 11 months in advance; but generally, people book six to eight months in advance. 
2)The two main problems couples face are usually to do with time and money, as with most things.
In terms of the money, just remember that you get what you pay for, so think about how that relates to where you are staying and how long for. If you plan it right there are ways to cut the cost - think about ten nights rather than fourteen, for example. Where you are going is the most important aspect of all holidays, so it is vital you get it right.

3)We always suggest to try somewhere new; it's much more fun for both of you. However, we do have a fair number of couples who wish to return to destinations they have been to before. Common sense applies, though: don't ever take you new wife or husband where you have been with another partner. 

 4)Choose a honeymoon that suits you both; a remote tented safari camp with bucket showers and long drop toilets is great for some, hell for others.
Our top recommendations are to talk to someone who has been to your chosen destination; don't try to do too much; book with someone you trust and don't book with the cheapest, book with the best. And remember: paradise is not a place, it's who you are with.
