How Long Should We Plan to Stay in Greece?

We recommend choosing travel dates that create the best balance between comfortable flights, convenient connections, and an enjoyable stay on the island.
Since many guests will be traveling a long distance to celebrate with us, we would highly recommend staying more than four days if possible. This allows enough time to truly enjoy Syros, relax, explore the island, and experience Greece beyond the wedding festivities.
Many guests also choose to turn the trip into a longer vacation by visiting nearby Greek islands or planning a day trip before returning home.

Are Children & Babies Allowed?

Yes — children and babies are absolutely welcome to celebrate with us!
If your invitation includes your child’s name or is addressed to “The [Last Name] Family,” we have happily accounted for your children in our guest count.
If you do not see your child’s name or the word “family” listed on your invitation, please reach out to us directly so we can clarify accommodations and seating arrangements.

Who Can We Contact If We Need Help?

If you need assistance at any point, please feel free to reach out to our wedding planner, Kyriaki.
