Booking a wedding abroad can be so stressful worrying about paying out so much money to suppliers abroad. I spent hours researching checking out reviews etc but I needn’t have – I can’t recommend Ionian Wedding enough. With 3 postponed dates they were fantastic. Always at the end of the phone and replied to emails within an hour. The itinerary was organised to the minute and we were totally in control of our day how we wanted it. Our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and it was all down to Ionian Weddings in particular Maria and Viola. Getting married in Italy was so beautiful and the Italians made such a fuss it really was a dream come true. I couldn’t recommended Ionian enough. Love the new… Mr and Mrs Fitzpatrick married in the Cloisters and Hillside Hidden Gem with a pre wedding meal the night before at the Lemon Gardens (because we couldn’t decide on which venue so had both!) Sorrento Italy.
Thank you SO much! It was honestly everything we could have dreamed of, and more. 🥳😍🎉☀️🍾🌎💍
We are feeling very happy 🥰 Just wanted to say a huge thank to you guys for everything you’ve done with the planning over the years.
You’ve been Amazing Gab!! 😘😘😘❤️
Sending lots of loves ❤️
Gabi, I just wanted to say thank you so so much for organising our dream wedding. It really was perfect from start to finish and couldn’t have done it without all your help! You really have been amazing! Also huge thanks to Sofia – she is such a lovely lady and a huge help! Thank you again xx

So happy with the service and all the support I received from Ionian Weddings to make sure I had the best wedding day. We booked our wedding in 2019 for in Italy to get married the following year in 2020 but due to Covid we had to postpone 3 times! This worried me at first but the team at Ionian Weddings (particularly Maria, Viola, and Lizzie along with Rosaria and Stacey) could not have been anymore helpful and supportive. They were constantly in touch with us to help us rearrange and any time i had any questions to ask or queries they were straight back in touch, putting me at ease and arranging with the local team in Italy. We got married a week ago and it couldn’t have been anymore perfect thanks to the lovely team at Ionian Weddings. Everyone has commented how beautiful and amazing our day looked and it’s all down to these guys! I would recommend to any future bride and groom, without doubt! They wanted our day to be just as perfect as we did and went above and beyond. Amazing company and amazing staff. Thank you. You helped us create a day we will never ever forget. All our love, Natalie and Andy xxx
Our wedding was originally booked for May 2020 in Santorini but due to Covid it was postponed 2 months before we were due to fly. Two dates later we finally got hitched at our dream venue in Santorini on 10 September 2021. I couldn’t have done it without Rachel at Ionian Weddings. Nothing was too much trouble and she was always there to quickly respond to the many emails that I sent.
It really helps that she works very closely with the venue and the suppliers on the island so was able to put my mind at rest and I knew 100% that everything was being handled correctly, I totally trusted her which is a massive thing when you are not speaking to the suppliers face to face. All the legal stuff for me was a massive help as I wouldn’t know where to start with translating documents, which stamps are required etc. If you want to organise a wedding overseas but you don’t know where to start then I can’t recommend Ionian enough. We had the perfect day, everything ran smoothly and everything was just as I hoped it would be.
Thank you so much for everything you have done Gabi, we really did have the most amazing time and it will certainly be a day we remember for the rest of our lives!
We booked a wedding on Skiathos with IW back in 2019 for 2021, long before Covid was even a thing. 2020 hit and the world was thrown into uncertainty. Despite this, our planner in the UK kept us updated, gave us transparent and honest advice about how best to liase any potential issues trying to get married abroad following a worldwide pandemic.
The day itself was perfect. I could not fault a single thing. The co-ordination between the UK team and the team members in Skiathos was seemless and everyone was so kind and personable. Special shout outs to Rachel (UK), George (Skiathos) and Nick (Photographer) as well as Despina who owned the restaraunt we used as our reception.
Everyone seemed to have great working relationships and we felt in very safe hands. For anyone who is considering a wedding abroad, I fully recommend IW from the experience we have had.

Could not recommend Ionian weddings enough. At the start everything was straight forward and the staff were always happy to help with questions and queries. Then Covid happened couple of months before wedding. It was extremely stressful so postponed wedding for 15 months. The time in between Helen kept in contact and answered any questions we had even in the uncertainty of everything. She must of had loads of stressed and worried brides/grooms but always stayed pleasant and helpful. When we finally had our day it was even more perfect than expected.
Perfection is not a strong enough word to describe our day. The process of booking the venue, choosing our packages and the logistics of setting the day up was really taken out of our hands. It was so easy. Debbie, our wedding planner feels like more of a friend. She has been absolutely second to none from the welcome meeting, to the venue meeting ,to the special day and finally to our last meeting. We’ll miss her !!!
Also thank you to Helen for all your help and support , along with the team.
We are so grateful , thank you !!!
We wanted to say thank you so much to Gabi, Sofia and the whole Ionian team for an absolutely amazing wedding. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day and evening. I absolutely loved my hair and makeup. Everyone involved in the day was extremely friendly which made the wedding extra special. We can’t wait to see the formal photos from Elina. She was so lovely!
We are enjoying our final couple of days on the island now before our flight home tomorrow night. The week has been a dream!
Very best wishes,
Claire & Dan
