FAQs

Question

How do we get around the island?

Answer

There are many options you can choose from! You can always take a taxi or use the bus. You can also rent a moped, ATV/Four-Wheeler, car, or van. Many of the cities that are close together on the island are walk-able. These accommodations can be arranged before your arrival or on-site when you arrive.

Question

What should I wear to the wedding?

Answer

For women, we suggest wearing dresses that are knee-length or floor-length. Cocktail attire is appropriate. Women, please do not wear any shade of white, tan, or cream. For men, we suggest wearing a collared button-down shirt with slacks and dress shoes. A tie and/or blazer are optional.

Question

Will any part of the wedding be on the beach?

Answer

Neither part of the wedding day will take place on the beach. The ceremony and reception will be held at the Le Ciel wedding venue in the town of Imerovigli.

Question

Are children provided with meals at the wedding?

Answer

For families with children under the age of two, please bring food with you for your little one. The venue does not provide food for any guests under the age of 3.

Question

Can I bring the bride and groom's gift with me to Santorini?

Answer

Thank you for your willingness to purchase a gift for the bride and groom! We suggest that no one brings any gifts to the island because following the wedding, they will immediately leave the island and begin their honeymoon. Any item purchased from the Registry tab will be sent to the bride and groom.

Question

What is the 'most wanted' item on your registry?

Answer

Any item that is listed under 'Experiences' is one of our 'most wanted' items! We love adventures and experiences. The gift of memories is the most valuable gift we could receive. Any contribution is very much appreciated!

Question

Where should I book my hotel room?

Answer

Anywhere on the island of Santorini you would like! The bride and groom, and some members of the bride's immediate family, will be staying at the Kafieris Apartments on the Cliff in Firostefani - as of 1/3/19 this hotel is booked. The groom's family will be staying in an Air Bnb in the town of Imerovigli. Our wedding venue is also in the beautiful town of Imerovigli. On our travel page we have a list of budget-friendly options to choose from as well as a list of what each town has to offer. Hailey is also happy to coordinate with you directly if you want extra help finding a place to stay!

Question

When should I arrive and how long should I stay?

Answer

If you would like to attend the Hen/Stag Parties (which will take place on Saturday, June 29th), please arrive on Friday, June 28th or the morning of June 29th at the latest. We will all be meeting on the beach in the early afternoon of Sunday, June 30th - specific details to come. The wedding is on Monday, July 1st. The bride and groom will be leaving the island the evening of Tuesday, July 2nd.

Question

Should I fly directly into Santorini's airport?

Answer

Great question! Because Santorini is an island, flights into Santorini's airport are sometimes more expensive. We recommend flying from North America to an affordable destination in Europe (such as London, Paris, etc.) and then taking a second flight to the island. Another great option is flying into Athens and then taking a boat ride or short flight to Santorini. A boat ride will take approximately 5 - 9 hours and a flight from Athens to Santorini will take approximately 45 minutes.

Question

How far is the airport from the wedding venue?

Answer

It is a 13 minute car ride!

Question

Do they accept credit cards in Santorini?

Answer

Yes they do! Most places will accept credit cards as a form of payment. However, in Europe it is customary to pay with cash. We recommend pulling out currency at the airport when you arrive to ensure you always have cash on hand just in case.
