Myrtian Blue — Wedding Planner (Argostoli)

Myrtian Blue is a boutique destination wedding planning studio based in Argostoli, Kefalonia, founded and run by Amalia — a Kefalonia native with 8 years of planning weddings on the island for couples from the UK, USA, Australia, Germany, France, South Africa and beyond.

A local team, an insider's island

Born and raised in Kefalonia, Amalia knows the island's hidden beaches, quiet chapels and sunset villages first-hand. That insider knowledge is built into every plan: which chapel catches the best afternoon light, which beach stays calm in August, which winery suits a relaxed countryside reception.

Hands-on, end-to-end planning

We handle the full picture — timelines, vendor coordination, venue styling, legal paperwork and the last-minute adjustments that always come up on the day. Whether you arrive a week before your wedding or plan from another continent, the day itself runs smoothly because the details were sorted long before you landed.

• Full wedding planning — concept, vendors, logistics and on-the-day coordination
• Partial planning — a structured handover for couples who have started on their own
• Day-of coordination — timeline, vendor briefing and on-site management
• Chapel weddings — Greek Orthodox, Catholic and symbolic ceremonies in Kefalonian chapels
• Beach weddings — including boat-access only coves on the Ionian
• Villa weddings — private estates for intimate ceremonies and dinners
• Countryside weddings — olive groves, vineyards and family-run wineries
• Elopements — two-person ceremonies in secluded chapels, terraces or beaches
• Greek Orthodox & Catholic ceremonies — including paperwork and church liaison
• Vendor curation — photography, florals, music, catering and transport
• Free 30-minute consultation call with Amalia

Kefalonia sits in the Ionian Sea opposite Ithaka, with Myrtos beach, the Melissani cave, hilltop villages and family-run wineries within short drives of Argostoli. It is well connected by direct summer flights from the UK and most of Europe, but it stays calmer and more private than Santorini or Mykonos — ideal for couples who want a real Greek island without the crowds.

The island offers a rare mix of settings inside a small radius: clifftop chapels, Blue Flag beaches, olive groves, traditional tavernas and modern villas with sea views. That variety is why we can plan a Greek Orthodox ceremony in a village chapel in the morning, lunch by the sea, and a sunset reception at a private villa — all without long transfers.

Planning starts with a free 30-minute call with Amalia to understand your vision, guest count, budget and dates. From there we build a tailored proposal with venues, vendors and a realistic timeline.

What's included

• Vendor introductions — only suppliers we have worked with on real weddings
• Site visits — in person if you are on the island, otherwise via video walk-throughs
• Legal paperwork — civil, Greek Orthodox or Catholic, including translations
• On-the-day management — so neither of you needs to answer a single supplier question

We work with couples from abroad every season, so remote planning, time zones and language differences are part of the standard service.
