Oct 03,2024100% recommend Ionian weddings if you're planning a wedding abroad. I was super skeptical about getting married abroad due to it being 'unknown' but the company were incredible. If anything, it was actually so much easier than planning a wedding in the UK as the planner (in our case the incredible Rachel) took care of everything. No question was ignored, and everything was taken care of. Then to mention the venue! Well, we got married in Santorini at Le Ciel and I cannot recommend enough. Every thing was perfect, and was truly like a dream come true. We had a planner at the wedding day who made everything run perfectly, and I didn't have any stresses at all! If you're considering a wedding abroad then 100% use Ionian Weddings, they truly are amazing! Thank you Rachel for being the most incredible planner, and for everything you did to ensure we had the most incredible wedding day.

Oct 02,2024We recently got married at Thermes Villas, Santorini. Ionian weddings took care of everything for us, and I honestly don't have enough words to express how utterly amazing our wedding day was!! Rachel handled everything on our side, and she was superb, replying straight away to any queries or concerns. Solving any problems and trying to enable us in any way possible to create our dream day. Giannis and voula were in Santorini to greet us and make our day seamless and beautiful!! Every suggestion they made at our pre wedding meeting made the day even better than we could of imagined.Absoloute professionals all round!! The service we received off ionian was faultless and absoloute perfection!!! If I could do it all over again, I honestly wouldn't change a single thing!!! It was perfect ❤️❤️

Oct 02,2024Ionian weddings made our day absolutely perfect. The whole process using them was completely stress free and easy. We were lucky enough to get Emma as our wedding coordinator who is an absolute gem! All you have to do is pick your location, they sort out all the small details and let you know exactly what paper work you need. On the day all we had to do was turn up and enjoy! I absolutely recommend using Ionion weddings.

Sep 30,2024Planning a wedding, especially abroad, is a huge and stressful undertaking. I can safely say Ionian Weddings not only made it possible but completely surpassed our expectations throughout the entire process. Myself and my now wife were married in Santorini, Greece at a beautiful venue called El Viento. It is hard to call a day perfect, particularly a wedding day, but this was as close as it gets. Our UK planner, Rachel, was with us every step of the way supporting and organising our day. No request was too big despite being very busy organising multiple weddings. We felt very cared for and looked after. In Greece, our lovely facilliator Voula made sure every detail was considered and executed flawlessly. We personally felt the fees were very reasonable considering the wedding landscape. Ionian have a great system where you pick your base package at a set fee but can add on / upgrade aspects to your specification whilst keeping close control of the cost. For anyone unsure on whether to go ahead and work with Ionian for a dream destination wedding I can only say, from our experience, to go ahead and take the plunge. Our wedding felt like something out of a film and the feedback we received from guests was incredible. Thanks Rachel and Voula! Dan & Sophie

Sep 22,2024Ionain was fantastic at planning our wedding in Portugal. Lucy really helped us decide a location and answered all our questions about the whole process and getting married abroad. Emma was fantastic, all our questions were answered so quickly. She really put us at ease and supported us every step of the way. For us getting married abroad was such a stress free experience due to their hard work. We had an amazing day and so did all our guests

Sep 18,2024The most perfect day. Emma and Gemma our wedding planners were fantastic, they made the whole experience effortless and took the wedding stress away. Another mention to all the staff at our reception venue who did a superb job. Would recommend Ionian to anyone. Thank you so much for making it such a magical day.

Sep 05,2024Absolutely delighted with how our wedding turned out, everything was looked after and we had a team of very experienced people to help us out. Our organiser Emma couldn't have been better, and on the Italian side Antonela was fantastic!

Aug 29,2024We recently had our dream wedding in Sorrento, Italy, and we cannot thank Ionian Weddings enough for making it such a seamless and perfect experience. From the very first consultation to the final moments of our special day, everything was planned and executed to perfection. Planning a destination wedding can be stressful, but the team at Ionian Weddings made it incredibly smooth. They handled every detail with care and professionalism, ensuring that we could relax and enjoy the journey. Communication was clear and consistent, and they were always available to answer our questions or address any concerns. From the breathtaking venue to the talented photographer and the exquisite catering. Every aspect of the wedding was coordinated flawlessly. On the day itself, everything went off without a hitch. The ceremony was beautiful, the reception was magical, and our guests were blown away by the entire experience. We are so grateful to Ionian Weddings for making our dream wedding a reality. If you are considering a wedding in Sorrento or anywhere else they operate, do not hesitate to book with them. They truly made our wedding day the best day of our lives! Thank you, Ionian Weddings! Love Finlay and James x

Aug 26,2024We got married at the end of July in Sorrento and had the most incredible day thanks to Ionian weddings! Emma was so helpful and happy to answer any questions we had- she really made the whole process so easy! When we got to Italy Anna was so reassuring and helped to show us our venue and go through every detail- the whole day was so smooth and exactly what we wanted so thank you so much! All our guests said how the day exceeded their expectations and we all had the most amazing time! If anyone is considering getting married abroad then we would highly recommend Ionian weddings! We can’t thank you all enough for helping to make our day so special Thank you Paige and Dan

Aug 22,2024My husband and I got married 2 weeks ago at San Galgano Abbey in Tuscany, Italy, and we can honestly say we had the best day of our lives and this is all down to the incredible planning, guidance and support from Ionian Weddings! Maria was our wedding planner based here in England and right from the start, she was there to answer our million-and-one questions and nothing was too much for her to sort, even when adding extra bits on just a couple of weeks before the wedding date. She also offered in some of her own ideas which we absolutely loved and helped to make our day even more special, for example for our Prosecco tower, she suggested having fountain sparklers at this point which truly made a magical moment on our special day! Communication was fantastic, emails were answered promptly and our video calls with Maria also helped to set plans in place. During our wedding day, we had Serena who coordinated our wedding out in Italy, along with Nico from the venue itself. Both were absolutely incredible - Serena could tell that we were nervous about how everything would come together and she went out of her way to make sure we were happy with everything and couldn’t have been anymore attentive on the day. Every tiny little detail of our wedding day was planned to perfection - the table decor was just stunning, the flowers matched our ‘sunset colour’ theme perfectly and our vision that we sent in photos truly came to life!! If you are thinking of having your wedding abroad, we couldn’t recommend Ionian weddings enough - they are just FANTASTIC and we feel so lucky to have had Maria, Serena and all the team in helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives! Thank you!!

Aug 07,2024We recently got married in the beautiful palm tree gardens in Portugal. We both honestly couldn’t have asked for any thing more. It was amazing!!!! A huge thank you to every one. Emma was fantastic, as was Maria. On the day we had Marta ensuring everything went perfectly. And perfect it was. We are so glad we chose Ionian weddings. Quick replies when we contacted them and any help we needed they went above and beyond. We just wish we could do it all over again. Thank you a million times for making our day so special

Aug 06,2024Santorini wedding at Dana Villas Santorini. July 2024. If you are thinking of booking your wedding abroad then use Ionian! They were fantastic right through from planning with Rachel through to Giannis and Vola in santorini! Even changing some things right up untill the day! Everyone couldn’t have helped us anymore and I have no complaints about our wedding at all! It all ran very smoothly. I wish we could re do it everyday!!! I keep reliving our day everyday! I didn’t feel stressed throughout the planning due to Ionian, they did it all! Dana villas is so so beautiful and the service there was amazing. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and the events manager was extremely helpful and the staff were polite and helpful! The food there is fantastic! Everyone has commented on the foot and the wine was lovely aswell! The events manager did everything he could to enable us to have a fantastic day! Everything ran according to plan! I have already recommended Ionian weddings to friends and family Thankyou all very much :) 10/10

Aug 01,2024We recently booked our wedding with Ionian Weddings in Tuscany, communication with Lucy and Nona at our venue has been 10/10, we feel really at ease and it has taken a lot of pressure off of us whilst planning a destination wedding, couldn’t reccomend Ionian enough and can’t wait for our big day x
Alex Bryce
Jul 30,2024Our experience with Ionian weddings was 10/10. Our wedding day was made absolutely magical and well beyond our expectations. Maria was fabulous at helping organise prior to the big day and Viola our planner in Italy was so helpful. She couldn’t have done anymore for us and really helped ease our nerves. On the day she made sure everything ran as planned and we had the best day!!! Couldn’t recommend the company more

Jul 29,2024We recently had our wedding in the Panoramic Garden Package in Portugal and we have been blown away with the experience. Communication from the beginning was great when organising the initial bits with Lucy and the specific planning later on with Emma was excellent. They catered to everything we requested and always replied quickly and efficiently. Once we arrived in Portugal the team over there made sure the day went off without a hitch, and the whole experience was extremely smooth and gave us a very special day. We would definitely recommend and all our guests who attended have now decided they want destination weddings having seen how smooth and amazing ours was! Thank you to Emma and the team who made this experience so special. Emily and James Whitby. Xx

Jul 25,2024Our Santorini Wedding at Santo Wines and Pyrgos Restaurant was amazing and couldn’t have gone any better. The views, the food, decorations, the photographer, the violinist, waiters/waitresses… everything was just incredible. If it wasn’t for the help of our wedding planner Rachel in the UK and the amazing wedding planner in Santorini, Giannis it wouldn't have been as organised and relaxed as it was.Their ideas, planning and help from the start of the process to the wedding day we will be forever grateful for. The day was something we will remember forever, we had no stress on the day or leading up to the wedding everything was taken under control and it was lovely to just be able to be present and just enjoy the day without worrying about anything. I would definitely recommend Ionian Weddings to anyone who wants to have a wedding abroad!

Jul 19,2024Booking with Ionian Weddings was the best decision for our dream European summer wedding! Our day was perfect, the whole experience was amazing!! We have received the most seamless support, from the planning process with the UK team (Rachel), to the onsite coordination expert (Liz). Every choice provided by Ionian was top quality, including our fairytale venue (Crete exclusive garden), photographer and videographer.

Jul 09,2024Myself and my Husband arranged our wedding with Ionian weddings and honestly I could not of had a better experience. We got married in Santorini at the venue El Viento in June and WOW, this venue is absolutely mind blowing! From the planning in the UK with Rachel, the Santorini based planners, the staff at the venue inc Santorini wedding planners (who went above and beyond to ensure the day ran smoothly) the food and the drinks packages - the day could not have been anymore perfect.

Oct 15,2024We decided to get married in Sorrento, Italy and used Ionian Weddings due to the positive reviews and comprehensive, reasonably priced packages available. Although slightly apprehensive - as we have never attended a wedding abroad - we certainly weren't disappointed. The booking process and wedding arrangements all ran smoothly as a result of the help and support from our UK planner Maria and Viola in Sorrento made sure everything ran to plan on the big day! We were married in Sorrento and had our reception at Villa Antiche Mura and I can honestly say the experience of the day exceeded all our expectations - together with those of our guests. As well as the beautiful surroundings the food, service and attentiveness of the staff was of a very high standard and I cannot think of one negative aspect to mention. Sorrento is a beautiful place to visit and an absolutely perfect place to celebrate a wedding, we would highly recommend it! John & Lisa
