Theros Wave Bar, Santorini

Of course, no destination wedding list of Greece would be complete without mentioning Santorini, the island that oozes romanticism. Switch up your game and ditch the typical caldera view. You can of course ask your photographer to do your wedding shoot there later, but for now take a step back and trust Theros Wave Bar for your big day. Start with the ceremony on the beach or on the wooden terrace, then relax on the comfy lounge beds or by the bar. For the reception, have a lovely dinner in a relaxed ambiance before kicking your shoes off and dancing the night away.

Church of Agios Ioannis, Skopelos

The Church of Agios Ioannis in Skopelos is the location for one of the film’s most memorable moments

Get yourself a Mamma Mia wedding on the idyllic island of Skopelos. Relive the iconic wedding scene in the lovely church of Agios Ioannis, perched on top of a rock. After you say “I do,” have your photoshoot by the church, or choose to explore the several movie locations across the island. Or skip the church and have your ceremony on the Amarantos rocks, where you can take spectacular photos with your spouse. And even if you are not a fan of the movie, just know that Skopelos was a romantic destination long before the movie came out.
