I am the main wedding planner, but I have a team of assistants. All details are handled only by me.

In which languages can you take care of your customers?
English & Greek

What are the main regions where you are planning weddings?
All over Greece. The most popular destinations are Santorini, Athens, Mykonos, Rhodes, Kefalonia, Corfu, Amorgos, Milos & Zakynthos. However, any area the clients wish, we can arrange it.

What are your personal favourites regarding:

Have you organised weddings for prominent people?
Yes, I have organized, but due to strict privacy policy it is not permitted to give details or photos.

Have you organised weddings for couples from outside your country?
95% of my couples are from outside of Greece. Mostly from USA, Canada, UK, France, Australia, Austria, Japan & Hong Kong

Which strengths of your company would you like to mention?
Our attention to detail and the complete care of the wedding group is our biggest strength.
We believe that the comfort & happiness of the group as a whole is the highest priority. The food, décor, etc… are all fantastic wedding accessories and make wonderful “detail” memories. However, we feel that the overall stress-free, destination & hospitality experience that the couple & their guests experience is the base for making the “big” happy memories. Every person will leave Greece happy. This is the goal… to create an atmosphere that makes travelling here worth the trip!

Could you tell us a little story about something special that you have experienced during your work as a wedding planner?
Regardless of how perfectly a wedding is planned, I find it funny how there are always unexpected moments/surprises/emergencies that may arise. Every wedding morning, I open my eyes and the first thought is…”What could possibly happen today? Will the groom lose his passport? Will a bridesmaid fall off a donkey? …” As a professional wedding planner, we not only plan for what is expected – but more importantly, must be prepared for the unexpected; thinking on our feet, always with a positive attitude that will turn any possible emergency into the “funny wedding story” for that particular wedding.
