Wedding Scenarios in Nafplio Peloponnese Greece

We present you with 4 scenarios to help you consider just some of the many possibilities and combination of elements that make for an outstanding and unique service offer.
No matter what the package we design, together with you throughout, our resources and collaborators will ensure a final experience of undeniable quality and value.

Grand Luxe at Castle Bourtzi

I personally designed the Castle Bourtzi scenario as an immersion in the local culture using music, dance, smells, colours, and of course gastronomy.
Imagine...
In the centre of the bay of Nafplion, a jewel on the sea cradled by mountains, like an impressionist waterpainting. A medieval castle, reserved exclusively for you and your guests, one of the historic monuments of Greece made available to you at an entirely accessible cost.

You will be transported to another time and place by the traditional fisherman’s boats, that await you at the port, decorated for the occasion. Once on the island the torch and candle-lit halls, courtyards and terraces of the castle welcome you into their magical atmosphere for a night of fine dining and celebration.

We begin with an aperitif - cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, champagne- in the central courtyard accompanied by live music, fireworks if you like, and then proceed on to the Eastern terrace for the sumptuous dinner prepared by your chef.

Finally, we cap the evening off with further entertainment, traditional dances, rebetika... and then the castle is transformed into your private discotheque-club with the professional Dj spinning your favorite sets into the wee hours of the night.

Because of its unique setting as an island booked exclusively for our client in its entirety, a marriage on Castle Bourtzi is a high moment, allowing us to design a unique experience replete with emotions rare and memorable: what will those dramatic moments be, what will happen in between? What theme will they develop? In what sequence will they be presented? These are all questions you can begin considering.

As an island facing Nafplion and Castle Palamidi, its position, historic atmosphere and timeless architecture make it a fairy tale setting which we can take full advantage of in terms of decoration as well as entertainment to match.

Indeed the decoration, music both live and DJed and symbolic forms we can propose for both ceremony and banquet-reception should underscore and subtly enhance the magical atmosphere of the castle, which we make exclusively yours in celebration of your union.

Luxe Intime on the Liana H

One of the most beautiful and unique wooden sailboats on the Aegean today, designed from scratch from the most traditional building principles and integrating the latest technology, offering a distinctive level of elegance, comfort, safety and reliability.
Custom designed and built at Syros boatyard in Greece with passion for perfection which is evident in every last detail. Liana H comfortably accommodates 12 guests in five cabines. 5 member of crew (quartered separately from guests’ areas).
Here the program is organized into two distinct phases for you and your close friends and family, the first in Nafplion, the second cruising the Aegean and its islands.
The sailboat itself can be used for both reception and diner. After the ceremony and photo session, we go to the port where your boat awaits, and you sail off gently while the crew serves you and attends to your every need. Cocktails, music and fine dining in your own secret alcove... your private cruise awaits you.

The Liana H can be booked as a reception venue for 5,500€ for the day (24h) of the reception and otherwise at the rate of 4,000 per day (rate based on embarkation from port of Piraeus).
In other words you have the option of having us pick you up by taxi or limousine from Athens Airport and drive you do Piraeus port where you will embark and sail down to Nafplio (a very pleasant cruise of about 6 hours), or conversely, come down to Nafplio directly by car, and embarking on the reception day itself and beginning your cruise either that very evening or in the morning with your party for however many days you wish.
The scenarios are many. Personally I find the notion of sailing off onto the sea of the Aegean on the day of the ceremony particularly romantic, to disembark on any one of the thousands of beautiful islands of the Aegean (Spetses and Hydra are quite close by), with or without your party of family and friends, and then continuing on your own… Ceremony, reception and honeymoon can flow beautifully the one into the other.

The ceremony will have taken place earlier in the morning of the reception -if civil in Nafplion’s city hall, and if religious, in the church of your choice. We can also suggest personalizing your ceremony: if you are interested in exploring alternative ceremonial rites for your union we can propose ritual forms rooted in ancient Greek and Byzantine rite traditions, both Christian and non-Christian. If you have researched ritual forms or traditions on your own which you would like to incorporate into your ceremony, creating rituals in collaboration with our guests is one of the distinct honours and pleasures we take in our work.

Wedding by the Sea at Karathona Beach

The highlight here is Nafplion’s most attractive sand beach, Karathona. We have reserved for you and your guests a place apart in which to spend an evening of celebration and fun, as soon as you arrive. Your guests will have gotten there ahead of you, by fishing boat to the small port nearby and then on foot down the quaint dirt road, amidst the majestic pine and eucalyptus trees.

A very special atmosphere therefore awaits you as you and your spouse are brought to the opposite port by fishing boat [orthodox variant: arrival at St Konstantine church], specially adorned for the occasion, where you will mount two proud horses, for a fairy tale ride down the beachfront, led by a fine company of traditional greek musicians in folk ceremonial dress. We can even arrange for the world-renowned Peloponesian Folk Musem to provide you with traditional folk ceremonial dress.
Or you can just opt for a more informal entrance.
Once arrived at the reception, you join your friends and family in celebration at sunset, be it in the form of a more casual beachside picnic, or a more formal, or even creative themed festivity at the traditional fishing tavern’s picturesque terrace, or again at the Utopia with your full light and sound show, DJ mixing things up ‘til sunrise. You might even try swimming in the moonlit waters...

A few words about our Wedding by the Sea Scenario. I propose for your reception Karathona Beach, which I consider to be an exceptional site offering many advantages.
It allows us to freely create the atmosphere of your choice including the decoration and layout of the space, the duration of the event, and especially, the music.

We could start off the evening with a cocktail by the water-side and then continue on the covered terrace (which you can see in the photos I have enclosed) which will have been exclusively reserved for you.
We can install there either a single large table seating 25 or 3 round tables for 8-9 each, the entire buffet and DJ/music.
Our catering service offers a choice of waitered table service or buffet and our DJ can play any program you ask him ahead of time, or design one according to your tastes with you.

Wedding cruise on the Mandalena Cruise boat

At the appointed time, the private cruise ship of your choice awaits your arrival in the port of Nafplion for your Marriage Reception. Arriving by horse-drawn carriage or vintage limousine, or simply a pleasant walk down to the port, you are greeted by the Captain and the crew who welcome you with a cocktail in your honour.
The boat departs as you and your guests are lead to the upper deck, fully adorned and decorated for an unforgettable reception-cruise on the Aegean and into the setting sun.
Enveloped in the musical atmosphere of your choice, our catering team will offer you the eclectic tastes of the best in local and traditional cuisine, you can even take advantage and have your party dropped off at any one of the neighboring islands, or simply come back at sunrise to home port. (In case you’re wondering, the difference between the boats lies mainly in whether or not you want a full-flung party with dancing.
If that’s the case we recommend you choose the Madalena for reasons of space. Otherwise, the Liana H distinguishes itself mainly for a more relaxed setting in a romantic and traditional motif. Finally, the Alkionidis is roughly equivalent to the Madalena at a slightly lower price because of a lower standard)
