Our Wedding ceremony and reception is in Athens Riviera, which is 45 min-1 hour away from Athens city center. We suggest you stay in the Riviera during our wedding celebrations. Day visits or staying a couple of nights before or after the wedding celebrations in the city center is a great option. However, you are more than welcome to stay in any part of Athens.


Athens hotels and home rentals are high in demand - the sooner you book, the better!


We stayed at the Margi in Athens Riviera, and the Mona in Athens city center - feel free to ask us directly about both of those hotels. They were amazing.

Airbnb Options

Our Wedding ceremony and reception is in Athens Riviera, which is 45 min-1 hour away from Athens city center. We suggest you stay in the Riviera during our wedding celebrations. Day visits or staying a couple of nights before or after the wedding celebrations in the city center is a great option. However, you are more than welcome to stay in any part of Athens.


Athens hotels and home rentals are high in demand - the sooner you book, the better!


We stayed at an Airbnb on Paros island and it was excellent! For less than $200 euros per night we had an entire villa with a private pool overlooking the sea.


There are several Airbnb options in Athens, especially Athens Riviera. They are cost-effective, in great locations (overlooking or on the water), and have excellent amenities (access to the beach and/or a pool).


Just be mindful of the location distance to our Wedding venue.

TIP: if the Airbnb rental is near any of the hotels we have listed, then you are in a good spot!

Transportation Options

Picture of Transportation Options

Transportation is very easy in Greece. During our visit we opted to rent a car, which can be done right from the airport. We loved having our own car to zip between Athens Riviera and Athens city center, which is 45 min-1 hour apart. However, renting a car is not a requirement. There is always a taxi (called radio taxi) nearby (https://radiotaxiglyfadas.gr or +302109605600).


You can also use the Greek uber - https://www.free-now.com/gr/ .


Do keep in mind that for our Welcome Party in Athens' city center, we will provide transportation from Athens Riviera going to and coming back from the event.


Please do not hesitate to reach out to our local travel specialist, Mrs Kleio Bacharia. You can reach her at bachariak@truechicgreece.com or call at +30 6945 433801.


Mrs. Bacharia can assist you with any of your travel questions.

The baggage claim is a far walk from the arrival gates. If you are concerned about making the long walk, we suggest setting up inside airport transport with your air carrier ahead of time.

Ferry Travel

Picture of Ferry Travel

Should you visit a Greek island before or after our wedding festivities, you can fly to many of the islands. However, you may prefer to travel by ferry. This is the most common travel method between the islands, and is stress-free. We used SeaJets and enjoyed it.


Some Tips:

- If you purchase ferry tickets ahead of time, make sure you either download the QR code ticket(s) on your phone, or go to the ferry counter at the port prior to boarding the ferry and have them print your ticket(s). Your confirmation email is insufficient.


- There are 2 different ports in Athens, so make sure you go to the correct one.


- We didn't find that there was any difference between economy and premium seats on the ferry, other than the price.
