If I am unable to attend, can I send someone in my place?
Invitations will be individually issued and will include the name of each guest. Our guestlist has been carefully curated and so invitations are non-transferrable. We will not be able to accommodate additional or replacement guests. Thank you for your understanding.
Will there be transportation to the events?
We will be arranging transport to and from Vincci Ever Eden Hotel to the venues. We will share the details closer to the time.
What will the weather be like?
Days in Athens are usually mild and sunny (20–24β―°C), evenings are cooler (14–16β―°C). Occasional short showers, but mostly perfect for exploring, beach walks, and alfresco dinners. Please bear in mind that we will be having a combination of indoor and outdoor events so we recommend packing layers and a light jacket/shawl!
Is there a gift registery?
The most important thing to us is that we are able to celebrate our wedding with you all. However if you do wish you give a gift, a small contribution to our honeymoon would be greatly appreciated. We kindly ask for no boxed gifts.
