We’re getting married!
11-13th Sept 2026
CORFU, GREECE
Greece has always been our favourite place to travel — it was the destination of our very first holiday together nearly 14 years ago, and we’ve tried to go back as often as possible ever since (mainly for the gyros!). So we’re beyond excited and feel incredibly lucky to be getting married in this beautiful country, surrounded by our loved ones.
Some activities are still in the works, but we wanted to send invites nice and early. We know it’s a big trip to make, and we’re so grateful that you can join us.

Corfu is a beautiful island with many places to stay, whether you want a hotel, self-catered apartment or a villa with a pool. For our wedding, we do recommend staying along the east coast of the island. We’ve suggested two areas as they will be the most convenient for the different activities.
Corfu Town
Corfu town is a 15-minute car or bus ride away from the airport. Within Corfu town, you will find many hotels or apartments.
Our welcome drinks on Friday evening will be held here. We recommend staying in this area for convenience to the airport, especially if you plan to stay only for a couple of days
Kalami Bay
Our reception will be held in Kalami Bay, and we will be staying here for a week around the wedding. Kalami Bay is a 50-minute drive from the airport via car or bus. It is a small, traditional Greek village situated on the northeast coast. The town of Kalami is filled mainly with villas and apartments for very reasonable prices, ranging from £40 a night. Not all villas are advertised on Airbnb, so you can also find them on: Vrbo, Solmar Villas or Perfect Blue Villas. There is an adults-only hotel in the bay too, if you feel like treating yourself https://sanantoniocorfuresort.gr/
Things to know about the wedding
How do I get to the ceremony?
Guests will need to make their own way to the Church of the Hypapante at Gouvia on Saturday. Please arrive at the church by 3:30PM.
If you are staying in Corfu town, you can get a bus, which takes 25 minutes to Kommeno (the stop closest to the ceremony).
If you are staying north of the Church (for example, Kalami Bay), then a taxi is the best option.
How will I get back from the reception in Kalami Bay?
You are welcome to arrange your own taxi when you are ready to leave, transfers will also be put on at the end of the party for anyone not staying in Kalami Bay.
Kids
While we would love to have everyone’s little ones there, we can only make exceptions for family.
Gifts
We’re just so excited to celebrate with you, and truly, your presence is more than enough. If you did feel strongly about giving a gift, a contribution to our honeymoon would be so appreciated, but absolutely not expected.
