Few days hold as much significance as your wedding day, a canvas upon which you paint the most beautiful and strong memories. To make it even more amazing, we are giving you ten reasons to step beyond the familiarity of your local ceremonies and explore some truly exciting wedding options. And, in our opinion, a wedding destination stands way above the rest; Cyprus, the Island of Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love, could give you two and your guests an unforgettable experience.
Combining the joy of your wedding day with a trip to an exotic location with all your loved ones is an experience you must have. Cyprus enjoys a Mediterranean climate, meaning you can plan your wedding any time of the year. With more than 300 days of sunshine annually, you can count on pleasant weather for your big day. Spring and autumn are popular for weddings, as the temperature is comfortable, and the island is in full bloom.

Cyprus has proven to be the perfect place to host weddings for people from abroad, as it offers myriad opportunities for unforgettable experiences at picturesque locations and wedding venues.

They’re also famous for their entertainment choices, incredible fine dining, and their scenic, romantic locations.
