Why PlanMy for a wedding in Greece

Bilingual invitations & RSVP

Invite Greek and international guests in one place. Your RSVP page works in English and Greek, so nobody misses a detail.

Travel details from every guest

Collect arrival dates, hotels and plus-ones through the RSVP, so you know exactly who lands when — essential when half the party is flying in.

Seating & floor plan

Design the reception with drag & drop and share a link with your Greek venue or planner — no back-and-forth over which layout is final.

QR check-in at the reception

On the day, guests scan a QR and find their table in seconds — smooth even when most of them have never been to the venue.

How to plan it — three steps

Build your guest list

Add or import guests, set groups and plus-ones, and track everyone from save-the-date to seated.

Send a bilingual RSVP

Share a digital invitation by link or QR; guests reply in English or Greek with their travel and meal details.

Plan seating & check-in

Arrange tables, share the plan with your venue, and use QR check-in on the wedding day.

Getting married in Greece: what to know

A few essentials for couples planning a wedding on a Greek island or the mainland:

Legal requirements

Foreign couples can marry in Greece with a civil or religious ceremony. You'll typically need birth certificates, certificates of no impediment and official translations, submitted to the local municipality (dimos) in advance. Confirm the exact paperwork with your venue or a local planner — requirements vary by nationality.

When to send save-the-dates & invitations

For a destination wedding, send save-the-dates 8–12 months ahead so guests can book flights, and formal invitations about 3 months before. Ask for the RSVP roughly 6 weeks out.

Choosing an island or region

Santorini and Mykonos are the icons (and the priciest); Crete, Paros, Rhodes, Corfu and the mainland (Athens Riviera, Pelion) offer stunning venues for less. Factor in how easy it is for guests to reach — direct flights matter.

Budget & costs

Costs swing widely by island and season. High-demand islands in peak summer cost far more than shoulder-season dates or lesser-known regions. Build your guest list first — it drives catering, the single biggest line item.

Frequently asked questions

How do I start planning a destination wedding in Greece?

Start with your guest list and budget — they determine the venue and island. Then lock the date, send save-the-dates early (guests need to book flights), and manage RSVPs and seating online so you're not chasing replies across time zones.

What are the legal requirements to marry in Greece?

Civil and religious ceremonies are both possible for foreign couples. You'll generally need birth certificates, a certificate of no impediment and certified translations filed with the local municipality beforehand. Exact documents depend on your nationality — confirm with your venue or planner.

When should we send invitations for a wedding abroad?

Save-the-dates 8–12 months ahead so guests can arrange travel, invitations about 3 months before, and an RSVP deadline around 6 weeks out.

Which part of Greece is best for a wedding?

Santorini and Mykonos for the classic look, Crete/Paros/Rhodes/Corfu and the mainland for beautiful venues at lower cost. Prioritise how easily your guests can reach it — direct flights make a big difference.
