Crete Within Weddings
Athene And Dean, A Beautiful Couple From Scotland, Envisioned A Luxury Beach Wedding That Perfectly Mirrored Their Passions. As A Cold Water Free Diver, Athene’s Love For The Sea Made A Beachside Celebration A Must. Their Other Love? The Delectable Cretan Cuisine And The Island’s Appealing Weather. Crete’s Climate Offers Something For Everyone: Slightly Mild And Fresh At The Start Of The Wedding Season (april, May), Sizzling Summer Days In June, July, August, And September, And The Wonderfully Comfortable Autumn Temperatures Of October And November. (a Quick Note To Couples: Many Venues Close By The End Of October, So Always Check With Your Wedding Planner!)

Although Rali And Ilya Had Already Tied The Knot In Canada A Few Months Prior, They Both Knew That Their Union Would Not Be Complete Without An Orthodox Wedding Ceremony. Both Were Raised In The Orthodox Faith, And They Were Determined To Honor Their Heritage By Embracing The Traditional Rites Of Their Ancestors. The Orthodox Church Has A Long History In Crete Dating Back To The 1st Century Ad, And The Couple Was Drawn To The Island's Ancient Roots. Choosing The Ancient Basilica In The Mythological Amari Valley Of Central Crete As Their Wedding Venue Was A Nod To The Island's Rich History. Surrounded By The Echoes Of Centuries Past, Rali And Ilya Exchanged Vows In A Ceremony That Was As Timeless As It Was Beautiful.

weddings Come In All Shapes And Sizes: Grand Celebrations, Minimal Gatherings, Or Intimate Ceremonies Like The One Emily And Rob Dreamed Of. They Traveled From The Uk To The Sunny Crete With Their Large Family, A Couple Had 4 Kids. 

emily And Rob Wished For A Special, Secluded Spot For Their Intimate Ceremony With Close Family. We, As Local Wedding Planners, Based In Crete, suggested A Magical Place At The Edge Of The Akrotiri Peninsula In The Chania Region. Though It Wasn’t Far From Chania, Reaching This Secluded Spot Felt Like Entering A Different World. The Air And Atmosphere Held A Unique Essence That Made The Journey Worth Every Step Although It Wasn’t So Easy To Get There. It Turned Out Wonderfully, Perfectly Aligning With Emily And Rob’s Vision. Seeing Their Joy, Love And Happiness Is What We Strive For, To Turn Dreams Into Reality On Such A Special Day.

we’re Always On The Lookout For Unique Places, Whether For Grand Or Small Weddings. Crete Offers It All, From Well-equipped, Easily Accessible Venues To Hidden Gems Waiting To Be Discovered. We’re Here To Make Your Dreams Come True. After All, Who Doesn’t Love A New Adventure?

Crete Within Weddings

welcome To Crete,  The Largest Island Of Greece.  Crete Is Famous For Its Rich History And Unique Ηighland Culture, That Is Still Alive. That's Why We Like To Implement The Blend of Local Traditions And Decorations Into The Celebrations. This Time We Drew Our Inspiration  From The Cretan Wedding Custom We Have Been Told By The Old Man From The Village Thronos. A Few Days Before The Wedding Day A Young Cretan Bride Went To The Village Spring To Do Hand Washing Of The Linen And A Shirt For A Groom. It Was A Symbol Of A Woman's Commitment To Take Care Of Her Man. 

so we Decided To Make An Old-fashioned Rustic Fantasy About The Bride's Morning Based On This Story. Our Aim Is To Promote The Idea Of Using The Natural Beauty Of A Place As A Part Of A Wedding Set Up And Decoration. Simple Decor Details, A Bit Of Flowers And An Amazing Landscape - That's Enough To Decorate Your Wedding Celebration In Crete. the Editorial Took Place In The Early June, 2021

more And More Couples Are Considering Eloping This Wedding Season, As The Covid-19 Pandemic Won’t Let Us Be Back To Normal Yet In 2021.

All It Takes To Elope Is A Celebrant, A Photographer To Capture Everything, And Your Mad Love For Each Other! The Budget Can Be Very Low In Comparison To A Large-scale Celebration, So Nothing Is Stopping You From Marrying Even A Month From Now.
