7 Tips for Holding the Perfect Mykonos Wedding

Greece, and Mykonos in particular is viewed as one of the best destinations for weddings and attracts thousands of people every year for this very reason.

Organising weddings on the island is pretty straight forward, and it’s close enough from the homeland to avoid some of the issues related with most long-distance destination weddings.

7 Tips for Holding the Perfect Mykonos Wedding

However, there are some things you’ll have to be prepared for if you want your wedding to go as planned and avoid a catastrophe. Here are a few tips for anybody trying to organise a wedding on the island.

Have your Location Booked

The first thing you want to do is make sure that you have the location locked down. Some people might want to have the ceremony and reception on the beach or at a resort, but renting a villa will save you a lot of headaches. Not only will you be able to have more control over the logistics, but you won’t have to worry about lodging for you and your main guests.

Services like BlueVillas have multiple units on the island, and they’ll help you find the perfect location depending on what you had in mind for your wedding in Mykonos. They might also help you with some of the planning. If you need more information, you can find more details on Weddings in Mykonos here.

On or Off Season?

This part is very important because the atmosphere on the island is very different depending on the season. During the summer months, the island is bustling with tourists and couples getting married. So, you might want to think about the best time for you to plan your wedding. Some people will not mind the action or might even welcome it. Others may want to avoid it altogether and everything that it brings. However, know that Mykonos doesn’t enjoy perfect weather all the time, and autumns here tend to be on the rainy side, so this is something you’ll have to consider as well.

Book a Photographer

If you intend to post your wedding on social media, you may want to leave it to professionals. Making sure that you work with a professional wedding photographer will make sure that everything looks just as you imagined. You also don’t want to be too involved with your accounts during the planning stage, so let someone else handle that for you. The island is full of great wedding photographers, so make sure that you find one well ahead of time and start working on details.

Consider Working with a Wedding Planner

You might also want to work with a renowned wedding planner on-site if you want to have the best experience as possible and have someone on the ground who knows the island inside and out. They’ll also have personal relationships with DJs and caterers and will be able to help you with everything from the decoration, entertainment, invitations, and more. They’ll also be able to help you with some of the paperwork and formalities of planning a wedding on the island. So, if you’re the type who wants to control everything, it would be a better idea to hand the wheel to someone who actually knows the place.

Plan Well Ahead

When planning a destination wedding, it’s important that you plan well ahead of time and start mailing the invitations as soon as possible. You have to leave the guests time to plan and budget for the trip. Not only that, but some of the top spots in Mykonos are booked years in advance, so if you had a particular place in mind that is popular, then you may not be able to get it if you book at the last minute.

Inspire Yourself From the Island

Greece is a beautiful tapestry of colours, sites, and scenery, so make sure that you draw inspiration from the place when planning the wedding. There is also a wide variety of different venues you could think of, so don’t be afraid to think outside of the box and go for something extraordinary.

Visit Ahead of Time

It would also be a good idea that you come to the island before the wedding so you can familiarise yourself with it. You don’t have to come for a full vacation, just enough so you can start looking at places where you’d like to hold the wedding, start connecting with professionals, and get a feel for the atmosphere. This way, you won’t be as disoriented once you get there and will be able to hit the ground running.

Conclusion

When it comes to organising the perfect destination wedding, not many places come close to Mykonos. However, you still have to plan carefully and make sure that you have a good contingency plan if anything goes wrong.
