WHY ELOPE? A big wedding doesn’t appeal to you. You don’t want the stress, the family pressure or you are not a big party fan. Then you should consider eloping!
Do you need more reasons? Here are few!
- Just “Us” experience
- Authenticity
- Intimacy and intention
- Valuing experience over stuff
- Less stress and anxiety
- Life is meant to be an adventure
- Amazing photos
An elopement is usually done in secret, will be attended by just the couple marrying, the two witnesses and few dearest friends or relatives. Ceremony takes place in a remote and romantic location. Often, with a special meaning for the couple.
Small weddings are relaxed and wonderful. You have more time to enjoy the island and spend time together with your relatives and friends. However, it doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style or the type of day you want. Although the guest list will be small, your Big Day can be big on style and atmosphere. You can also extend your wedding to a three-day celebration.
Because getting married should be authentic and intentional!
WHERE ELOPE? With its gorgeous port and lively nightlife, Hydra is Greece’s answer to St-Tropez and Portofino. Instead of the characteristic whitewashed cubes, Hydra town—reached directly from the port city of Piraeus via a 95-minute hydrofoil—has stunning Venetian- and Genoan-designed gray-and-white mansions and a decidedly Greek, but appealingly cosmopolitan, atmosphere.
Warm weather, whitewashed houses, cobalt sea, tranquility, perfect weather, stunning sunsets, delicious food, tasty wine and the best wedding locations make HYDRA the best place to elope!
SHALL I NEED A WEDDING PLANNER? Because your wedding will be small doesn’t mean you don’t need a planner. Having someone local with great vendors contacts and who’ll be there on the day to make things run smoothly will reduce stress and help you enjoy the day.
I remember every single elopement and small wedding I have planned! Emotional and unforgettable. Full of memories and great fun!
What about a wedding like a big party under the moon light and why not including jumping into the crystal blue waters of Hydra?
And what about saying I DO in front of a traditional chapel built with wine?
Excited? Me too!
