Travel Note
In 2018 we had the trip of a lifetime to Greece. We fell in love with Santorini and decided this was where one day we wanted to get married. We used the travel company Affordable World for our trip. The Greek Getaway - Athens/Santorini (8 days/6 nights) trip lines up with the wedding. Select the trip that departs on October 11th and returns on October 18th. You must upgrade to the flight option if you want to attend the welcome party. Otherwise, you will get in at 11 pm Currently, a third of the wedding guest will be traveling with this group! It is the party you do not want to miss!
Flight
We encourage you to fly into Athens and stay a day to visit the Acropolis.
Flight
We recommend flying to Santorini (around a 45 minute flight). The ferry is around 5-8 hours. The ferry is a great experience but to make the most of your time we recommend flying. Yanni and I traveled by ferry from Athens to Mykonos and then from Mykonos to Santorini. We plan to fly from Athens to Santorini this trip.
Hotel
Update August 1, 2022 - Santorini Palace is booked. This is where Yanni and I stayed when we visited Santorini in 2018. We highly recommend it. The picture on our wedding home page was a picture we took right outside of the hotel. We love this location because it is easy to walk to the village of Fira and a short bus ride to the village Oia. 13 min drive to the venue.
Hotel
El Greco is a sister hotel to Santorini Palace. It is only 6 minutes away from the venue.
