Greece | Europe

The Greeks had a remarkable civilization while most other parts of the world were still bathing in primeval ooze! It is no wonder that this beautiful country draws so many travelers to its sun-drenched islands and coasts, its volcanic mountains, and historical wonders. Given its incomparable beauty and romantic aura, Greece attracts many destination wedding couples as well, who can choose from a wide variety of stunning locations for their celebrations.

Whether the popular islands of Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete, or some of the smaller, more exclusive islands, or even a chartered yacht that sails around and between the many islands, a Greek destination wedding usually takes place on, near, or with a wonderful view of the sea. Receptions are not complete without a sip of ouzo, the aromatic drink that symbolizes Greek optimism and joy of life, a little foot stomping dancing, and the breaking of plates.

Climate:

July and August are fine in Greece if you want the company of others, hot, sunny days and very active nightlife. These are undoubtedly the busiest months in Greece. If you prefer a quieter time, when reservations are easier to get, and the weather is still delightful, you can't go wrong choosing May or June, or September or October. Many Greek hotels close from November until April.
