Stepsis
the ritual of crowning
From the ancient years, the crowns were signs of Glory and Honor and until nowadays they remain the focal point of the Greek marriage ceremony, during which the wedding crowns are fitted upon the couple’s head joined by a white ribbon which symbolizes unity.
…and the two become one flesh
with Glory & Honor!

Crete as a wedding destination
Not only known for its rich history and tradition, but also for its wild natural beauty, exquisite cuisine, hospitable people, scenic landscapes and amazing sunsets, Crete has recently been voted as the fourth best destination in the world for 2019, according to the Travelers Choice Awards on TripAdvisor travel website, based on the reviews of millions of travellers.
It doesn’t come as a surprise that the island of Crete has also become the second most popular destination for weddings in Greece. In Crete, with its glorious beaches and impressive mountainscapes, fertile valleys and steep gorges, one can find exclusive venues for all tastes and preferences. From modern to traditional Cretan properties, endless olive groves, sea view locations, wineries and luxurious beachfront houses, they are all available to welcome you and your guests and host your wedding ceremony and reception.
a wedding planner is basically
the best gift you can give yourself
Getting married in Greece is definitely a magical experience and an opportunity of an unforgettable holiday both for you and for your guests; but having all the details of your very special day carefully fulfilled by a team of experienced professionals, this is what will make the difference and transform your big day into an incredible event.
Let’s be honest. Planning your wedding may be a joyful and unique experience, but planning a wedding abroad – in a country you have probably never been before – may be too stressful and risky. A professional wedding planner will be there for you in every step of the process, from advising you on decorations and doing the paperwork to negotiating and looking for the right venue and vendors, to make sure
A wedding planner knows the industry; builds relationships with trusted vendors; knows the real cost of all wedding services and negotiates accordingly. If you are lucky enough to hire a professional one, he will handle all the event and manage all vendors in a professional way, avoiding or solving all last minute mishaps.
A beautiful wedding is not only nice decorations and flowers, candles and perfect tablescapes; it’s much more than this! It’s being able to predict and prevent; to satisfy all your beloved people who travelled in Greece just to be part of Your Big Day and enjoy it with you; to offer them the best this country has to offer when it comes to vendors and services. But above all this, the realization of a beautiful wedding presupposes that you and your significant other enjoy the day to the fullest, leaving all the stress and bossing to the pros.
