About Wedding Ceremonies in Greece

Are your ceremonies legally binding?

In Greece, most couples handle the legal aspects of marriage separately from their celebrant-led ceremony. Typically, couples complete the legal formalities either in their home country before traveling to Greece or at a local town hall in Greece. I can guide you through this process and ensure your celebrant ceremony is everything you've dreamed of, while the legal aspects are taken care of separately.

Practical Questions

How do you handle travel within Greece?

For ceremonies in Zakynthos, there are no additional travel fees. For other locations in Greece, I charge a reasonable travel fee based on the destination. I arrange all my own travel and accommodation.
