Why get married in Greece?

The 4 reasons that make Greece a must-see when choosing a "Wedding" destination

1. An extraordinary setting:

the Athenian Riviera

Less well-known to the French (but very well-known to the Greeks), the Athenian Riviera is the ideal place to organize your wedding.

  • a large number of exceptional places to host your wedding

  • quality accommodation to accommodate all your guests

  • exceptional accessibility from France (3 hours by plane + 25 minutes by car)

  • a unique place combining sea, sports activities and historical monuments from Antiquity!

2. The Greek sun

All future brides and grooms share the same fear: that the weather won't be good on the big day!

With almost 95% sunshine during the summer in Greece, the chances of getting married on a beautiful sunny day are very high.

During the summer, the weather in Greece is quite predictable: sunny, 30 to 35 degrees during the day and 25 to 30 degrees in the evening!

3. A high-end wedding
& accessible

Unlike the major French cities or the large Greek islands, it is (still) possible to find exceptional and completely accessible places on the Athenian Riviera.

So, for a budget equivalent to a classic wedding in France, you can organize an exceptional wedding in a large luxurious villa overlooking the Aegean Sea!

Services associated with the wedding (caterer, florist, photographer, makeup artist) are also generally 20 to 30% cheaper than in France for equivalent or superior services.

4. A unique moment to share with your loved ones!

Getting married in Greece is a guarantee of sharing exceptional moments with your family and friends for several days!

In fact, we will help you organize events around your wedding that will prolong the magic of this union:

  • Beach Party before and/or after the wedding

  • Day trip by boat in the Cyclades. Magical!

  • Visit the must-see places of Greek Antiquity: the Acropolis (1 hour drive) or the Temple of Poseidon in Sounion (30 minutes) ...
