Mykonos is one of Greece’s most iconic wedding destinations, known for its stunning beaches, white-washed architecture, vibrant nightlife, and world-class venues. It’s a paradise for couples who want a beautiful and unforgettable setting for their wedding.

We have created a comprehensive, step-by-step guide on how to get married in Mykonos, including all legal requirements, venue options, vendor recommendations, and other essential details.

Understanding the Type of Wedding you want to have

• Civil Wedding: A legal marriage conducted at the municipal town hall. This is the most common option for non-residents.
• Religious Wedding: If you’re interested in having a religious ceremony (Greek Orthodox, for example), you’ll need to arrange this through a local church. However, you should know that you may need to fulfill specific religious requirements, such as baptisms or confirmations.
• Symbolic Wedding: Many couples choose a symbolic ceremony, especially if they are already legally married in their home country. These are often more personalized and can be arranged at scenic spots, beaches, or resorts.

There are Legal Requirements for a Civil Wedding. If you’re planning a civil wedding, there are certain legal steps you need to follow. Please contact The Destination Weddings directly on our inquiry form for further steps.

Best Time to Marry on Mykonos Island

The best months for a wedding in Mykonos are spring (April to June) and fall (September to October). During these months, the weather is warm but not unbearably hot, and the island is less crowded than during peak summer months. July and August are the busiest months, with high temperatures and many tourists, so you’ll need to book well in advance.

Like many other popular wedding destinations, Mykonos has a peak wedding season during the summer months. Please reach out to The Destination Weddings Planning Team to be able to secure your preferred villa, venue and best of Mykonos wedding vendors.
