Greece Wedding Ceremony – Mykonos, Crete & Santorini
There are many islands where you can tie the knot. We selected three that cover most of what couples come to Greece for.
Santorini sits on the caldera of an ancient volcano, its white-washed houses perched on the rim above the Aegean. It is famous for its sunsets, and it remains the most romantic of the three.
Mykonos pairs whitewashed streets and picturesque windmills with some of the finest beaches in Greece. It is also a leading LGBT+ wedding destination.
Crete is the largest island in Greece, with a varied landscape and a long history. It suits couples who want the ceremony and a proper holiday around it, with family and friends.

QUICK ANSWERS
Elopement blueprints in Greece start from €920, the same entry point on Crete, Mykonos, and Santorini. Your blueprint fee and your independent local expert’s on-the-ground fee are billed separately, keeping every cost transparent — no hidden agency mark-ups. The final cost of an elopement in Greece depends on three things: the island, the blueprint tier, and the season.
- Crete: from €920, varying slightly with the travel distance to your chosen location.
- Mykonos: €920 to €5,970, cosmopolitan style at a moderate premium.
- Santorini: €920 to €12,670, rising to the site’s most exclusive tier for a private caldera-view ceremony.
In practice, most of our couples choose the Silver tier — enough for a beautifully designed ceremony without the extras of the top tiers. For an exact quote on your date and island, the fastest route is to check availability with our team.
Greece delivers iconic Cycladic architecture, dramatic caldera views, and established wedding infrastructure across Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete — ideal for couples wanting varied island scenery, strong international flight links, and unforgettable backdrops. Our greece elopement packages start at €920, with peak season running April to October.
Sicily offers a different character: authentic Italian culture, Mount Etna backdrops, baroque architecture, and celebrated cuisine, with historic venues in Taormina and Syracuse and noticeably fewer crowds. Its packages start a little higher, at €1,000, and peak season runs May to October.
- Weather: both give 25–30°C summers with little rain from April/May to October; the Cyclades run windier, coastal Sicily more humid.
- Crowds: Sicily stays quieter than Santorini or Mykonos, while Crete offers the best balance among the Greek islands.
- Budget: entry points are close — Greek islands from €920, Sicily from €1,000 — and Greece’s top tier goes highest, with Santorini’s caldera Infinity package the most exclusive.
All three islands connect through Athens International Airport (ATH), Greece’s main hub, with direct flights from major US, UK, Canadian, and Australian cities. Planning a greek islands wedding is easiest once your international leg lands in Athens.
Mykonos:
- Direct international flights (seasonal, May–October) from several European cities, some direct from London, Paris, and Milan.
- From Athens: a 35-minute flight, or a 2.5–5 hour ferry from Piraeus or Rafina.
- Best for couples wanting the quickest access and the strongest connections.
Santorini:
- Direct international flights (seasonal, April–October) from major European cities, with limited intercontinental options.
- From Athens: a 45-minute flight, or a 5–8 hour ferry from Piraeus.
- Best for couples prioritising convenience, though with fewer direct routes than Mykonos.
Crete (Heraklion or Chania airports):
- Year-round international flights with extensive European connections, some direct from the UK and Germany.
- From Athens: a 50-minute flight, or a 9-hour overnight ferry.
- Best for couples wanting year-round access and room to explore several regions.
Travel tip: book your Athens-to-island connection separately once your international flights are secured, so delays stay easy to absorb. Ferry transfers also work well for guest groups who’d enjoy a scenic journey.
Mykonos brings cosmopolitan luxury — white-sand beaches, lively nightlife, and the iconic windmills — best suited to glamorous celebrations with strong infrastructure and direct international flights. Peak season: May–September.
Santorini offers dramatic volcanic cliffs, legendary caldera sunsets, and intimate cave venues, making a santorini wedding ideal for romantic elopements and couples chasing the most breathtaking views. It’s the most photogenic island, with limited venue capacity. Peak season: April–October.
Crete delivers authentic Greek culture, landscapes from mountains to beaches, and excellent value — perfect for couples wanting flexibility and a less touristy atmosphere. It’s the largest island, with the widest choice of venues. Peak season: May–October.
- Mykonos: packages €920–5,970 — the most affordable across every tier, cosmopolitan style at a moderate premium.
- Santorini: packages €920–12,670 — the highest ceiling on the island, driven by exclusive caldera venues and limited capacity.
- Crete: from €920, varying slightly with travel distance to your chosen location — the broadest mid-range choice.
Crowds: Crete stays quietest, then Mykonos, with Santorini the busiest. Venues: Crete offers the most variety, ahead of Mykonos, while Santorini is the most limited.
The Amalfi Coast showcases vertical cliff villages, lemon groves, and luxury hotels in Positano and Ravello, with Italian dolce vita and Michelin dining a short drive from Naples. Its compact geography suits two- to three-day celebrations, with packages from €970 and peak season May–September.
Greece offers greater variety across several islands — ancient sites, pristine beaches, and established infrastructure with English-speaking coordinators. A greece destination wedding ranges from glamorous (Mykonos) to romantic (Santorini) to authentic (Crete), with packages from €920 to €12,670 and roomier venues away from the busiest spots.
- Weather: nearly identical — 25–30°C summers with little rain May–September; Amalfi runs slightly more humid, the Greek islands windier, especially the Cyclades.
- Crowds: the Amalfi Coast is heavily congested June–August, with narrow roads and cruise traffic; Greece varies — Santorini and Mykonos are busy, Crete far more spacious.
- Budget: Amalfi carries a premium over most Greek islands, from a few percent at entry level to roughly a third at the Diamond tier; Crete offers Greece’s best value, while Santorini’s caldera venues sit at the top of the range.
Monaco means metropolitan sophistication — superyacht backdrops, palace gardens, and exclusive venues like the Hôtel de Paris. Its principality-scale geography is entirely walkable, and it delivers year-round reliability with a polished, designer atmosphere. Packages run from €990 to €8,870.
The Greek islands offer romantic escapism instead — ancient culture and landscapes from Santorini’s caldera cliffs to Mykonos beaches to authentic Cretan villages. A mykonos wedding or an island elopement leans relaxed and bohemian-chic, with packages from €920 to €12,670. The two share close entry points; Greece simply reaches higher at the top, through Santorini’s caldera venues.
- Weather: Monaco is mild year-round (10–27°C); Greece is seasonal, with hotter, drier summers best April–October.
- Atmosphere: Monaco is urbane and designer-led with casino nightlife; Greece is barefoot luxury, sunset ceremonies, and island life.
- Accessibility: Monaco is exceptional year-round; the Greek islands run on seasonal flight schedules and ferry links.
Greece provides dramatic natural landscapes, ancient history, and island-hopping variety at moderate pricing — packages from €920 to €12,670. It suits couples wanting diverse backdrops (caldera cliffs, windmills, beaches) and established anglophone infrastructure, with mostly seasonal operations April–October. A crete wedding is one of Greece’s best-value options.
The French Riviera delivers Belle Époque elegance, Michelin dining, and yacht culture across Nice, Cannes, and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, with year-round accessibility and consistent services. Packages run from €990 to €9,470 — close to Greece at entry level, with the gap widening toward the higher tiers.
- Weather: the Riviera is mild year-round (12–28°C); Greece has hotter summers (25–35°C) but limited winter services.
- Style: the Riviera is polished luxury and designer shopping; Greece is rustic-meets-luxury, whitewashed romance, and ancient ruins.
- Crowds: both are busy June–September; the Riviera keeps a boutique feel, while the Greek islands vary — Santorini packed, Crete spacious.

WHAT TYPE OF GREECE WEDDING IS RIGHT FOR YOU ?
DESTINATION WEDDING IN GREECE
Do you dream of a Greece destination wedding with family and friends? The country offers beaches, majestic cliffs and ancient ruins that work as ceremony locations in their own right.
The Mediterranean climate brings warm, sunny weather — ideal for bright ceremonies, and for the holiday your guests will inevitably make of it. Greek cuisine caters to every palate, and Greek hospitality does the rest.
ELOPEMENT IN GREECE
Do you want to escape the complications of a big wedding at home? An elopement in Greece keeps the day about the two of you.
The scenery is made for it: secluded beaches, private villas and quiet corners that give you real privacy for your ceremony. And between the art, the history and the light, there is plenty to explore once the vows are said.
VOW RENEWAL IN GREECE
Do you want to reaffirm your love with a Greece vow renewal? Greek landscapes range from lush to rugged, and they invite exactly the kind of romance and intimacy the day calls for.
Greece is where the concept of love was first defined, which makes it a fitting place to say it again — and a genuine getaway, with more to see than you will have time for.

SANTORINI WEDDING, GREECE
Do you want to say ‘I do’ in Santorini? Get ready for a chic, boho aesthetic. The island’s volcanic caldera gives a Santorini wedding a backdrop found nowhere else in the world.
Its small size and remote setting make it ideal for an intimate ceremony, and its white, minimalist architecture suits a sophisticated celebration. You can use a free outdoor spot, or choose from cliffside villas, traditional Greek churches and luxury resorts.
MYKONOS WEDDING, GREECE
Do you want the relaxed white vibe of Greece with a pinch of luxury? A Mykonos wedding is built for a high-end, sophisticated celebration.
The island has some of the finest beaches in Greece, ideal for a beach ceremony and for photography. It is also known worldwide for its nightlife, which leaves plenty of options for the evening — and for the honeymoon that follows.
If you want to celebrate a gay, lesbian or LGBT+ friendly wedding, Mykonos is your destination. Europe is an open-minded continent, but few places are as welcoming to every form of love.
CRETE WEDDING, GREECE
If you want to tie the knot on an island with room to breathe, a Crete wedding is your best choice. Crete is the largest of the Greek islands, which means far more variety: mountains, gorges, long beaches and old Venetian harbours, all within reach.
Its history is rich and varied, with landmarks and ancient ruins that make a striking backdrop for a ceremony — and a real holiday for the family and friends who travel with you. Cretan cuisine is legendary and caters to every taste.
