Dreamy Weddings in Crete — Wedding Planner (Chania)

Dreamy Weddings in Crete is a wedding planning studio led by Christina, founder and Head Planner. Based between Athens and Crete, Christina built the studio after years in Crete's hospitality industry, channeling that background into intimate elopements, partial planning, and full-service wedding planning for couples marrying on the island.

Crete weddings, end to end

From the first consultation to the last dance, the team handles venue selection, vendor coordination, design and decor, marriage license paperwork, accommodation and transport. Splitting time between Athens and Chania means Christina works with a wide network of Greek photographers, florists, caterers, and musicians — and pairs each couple with the right team for their style and budget.

Where we work

Ceremonies happen across Chania and the wider Crete region — from cliffside and beach settings in western Crete to gardens, vineyards, and private estates. Symbolic, civil, and Greek Orthodox ceremonies are all supported, alongside legal documentation for international couples.

• Elopement package — intimate ceremony with venue, officiant, photography, florals, decor, music, license paperwork, witnesses, and optional hair, makeup, and small wedding cake
• Partial wedding planning — vendor recommendations, legal guidance, accommodation help, and design and decor curation for couples who have already started planning
• Full-service wedding planning — initial consultation, budget management, venue selection, vendor coordination, design and decor, invitations and wedding favors
• Marriage license assistance — paperwork for civil, symbolic, and Greek Orthodox ceremonies, including support for international couples
• Guest management — RSVP tracking, seating arrangements, accommodation and transport proposals for you and your guests
• Hair and makeup — referrals to trusted bridal artists in Chania and Crete
• On-the-day coordination — vendor management and timeline oversight so the couple can stay in the moment

Crete brings together natural beauty, cultural depth, and warm Greek hospitality in a single destination. Chania's old Venetian harbor, the beaches of western Crete, the mountains of the interior, and the island's vineyards and olive groves give couples a wide range of backdrops without leaving one region.

Practical advantages matter too — direct flights into Chania (CHQ) and Heraklion (HER), a strong hotel and villa supply for guests, and a deep bench of Greek wedding vendors. The studio uses that infrastructure to keep weddings stylish but realistic on budget.

Every wedding starts with a one-on-one consultation — call or video — to map out the vision, guest count, ceremony type, and budget. From there the team builds a tailored plan and short-lists venues and vendors that match the couple's brief.

Christina stays involved through design and decor curation, vendor coordination, and on-the-day management, so the couple's only job on the wedding morning is to enjoy it.
