On our prices, Greece is the cheaper place to start: packages from £3,735, against £8,199 in Cyprus. The typical Greece package is cheaper too.
Starting prices are for each package’s minimum guest count, so the final figure depends on your guest numbers and choices. Flights and accommodation are not in the package price, but we can arrange them for you and your guests and quote the whole trip together.

Cyprus
Getting there. Direct flights run from many UK airports to Paphos and Larnaca, in the region of four and a half hours. Larnaca and Paphos are on opposite sides of the island, so we plan transfers around your guests’ arrival airport.
When to go. The wedding season is long: couples marry from spring into autumn, and the busiest weekends book twelve to eighteen months ahead. If your date is fixed, start with the date; if it is flexible, shoulder months give you more choice of venue.
Greece
Getting there. Direct flights to many Greek islands run seasonally, so the island you choose and the month you marry can change the route your guests take. We check this before you commit to a venue.
When to go. Summers are hot and busy; many couples choose late spring or early autumn for easier temperatures and more choice of dates. Peak weekends go early, so book as far ahead as you can.

Cyprus or Greece: your questions
- Is it cheaper to get married in Cyprus or Greece?
- On our prices, Greece is the cheaper place to start: packages from £3,735, against £8,199 in Cyprus. The typical Greece package is cheaper too. A starting price is for the package's minimum guest count, so the final figure depends on your guest numbers and choices, and flights and accommodation sit outside the package price. We can arrange flights and accommodation for you and your guests and quote the whole trip together, so you can compare the real totals.
- Which has more choice, Cyprus or Greece?
- Greece has more packages at the moment: 9 in Cyprus (including Paphos and Ayia Napa) and 16 in Greece (including Rhodes, Zakynthos, Crete, Mykonos).
- Which is easier for guests to get to?
- Direct flights run from many UK airports to Paphos and Larnaca, in the region of four and a half hours. Larnaca and Paphos are on opposite sides of the island, so we plan transfers around your guests’ arrival airport. Direct flights to many Greek islands run seasonally, so the island you choose and the month you marry can change the route your guests take. We check this before you commit to a venue.
- Which has the simpler paperwork?
- Legal ceremonies for overseas couples are well established in Cyprus. In Greece the requirements vary by island and by ceremony type. Either way, we confirm exactly what applies to you, and by when, before you commit to a date.
- Can you arrange flights and accommodation to either?
- Yes. The package covers the wedding, and we can add flights and accommodation for you and your guests and quote the whole trip together, in writing, before you commit.
