Crete, Greece

The largest island in Greece, Crete, is renowned for its picturesque beaches, wild natural beauty, exquisite cuisine and thousands of years of culture and history. As Crete’s most celebrated author, Nikos Kazantzakis (of ‘Zorba the Greek’ fame), once wrote:

‘The mystery of Crete runs deep. Whoever sets foot on this island senses a mysterious force coursing warmly and beneficently through their veins, sensing their soul beginning to grow.’

Unsurprisingly, this mystical, pure, and generous island to the south of the Aegean Sea captures the spirit of Greece and enchants everyone who visits, with its open-hearted and vivacious spirit, rich history, world-famous cuisine and hospitable people.

We feel quite lucky to be able to celebrate our marriage on this beautiful island and are honored to share this experience with you, all!
