We just want to let you know we had an excellent day and the venue was even better than we had ever imagined. Everyone loved the barman who helped us party the night away! The food was a hit as well! We couldn't thank the team enough and Jan who dealt with us over there went above and beyond and we are more than grateful for everything she done for us! Photo Papis were excellent too and our pictures and videos are amazing! We just wish we could do the day all over again
I was recommended Ionion by a colleague who couldn't praise them enough. I contacted them with an enquiry and quickly set up a call with Patricia, who was amazing. Patricia sent us a few options of venues before our call (from the requirements in our enquiry) and went through our favourite one in detail on the Zoom call. We really felt as though she cared about us and was as enthusiastic about our day as we are. The proposal documents have so much information in them, it gives a really clear idea of what's included and costs. The online portal is a great way to keep track of everything and easy to use. I'm so happy I have found a company that seems to really care about their customers. It has put me at ease knowing I can trust them with such an important day.
My fiancé and I recently booked our dream wedding in Portugal using Ionian Weddings. Patricia helped us through her clear and consistent communication to find exactly what we were looking for! We are so grateful that they were recommended to us.
So far so good. We booked our special day with Ionian Weddings and Patricia has been very helpful since our first contact. All questions answered quickly and efficiently. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get married abroad.
This has been the best experience I could have asked for. There’s been constant communication and complete clarity in cost and timelines. I’ve really enjoyed sorting my wedding with Lucy and Patricia. They’ve made the process so smooth and exciting.
Couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming and enthusiastic response, very helpful and would recommend to anyone! Can’t wait for our wedding next year thanks to Ionian Weddings
Lucy was amazing!! Everything has been so smooth and Ionian by far offers the best prices for a wedding of your dreams in Italy!
We recently booked our Italian dream wedding for 2025 and Patricia has been so helpful from the beginning! Answered all our questions and ensured we were happy with everything before moving on. Can’t wait for our special day! Thanks Patricia
Myself and my boyfriend always knew we wanted to get married in Greece but didn’t know whether it would be a reality when trying to organise it. So far the booking process has been so easy and Lucy has been amazing at keeping us updated and answering all of our questions along the way. Everything feels so organised and seems like it really will take the stress out of organising the wedding entirely on our own. Really excited for the rest of the wedding planning process and definitely feel in safe hands. Thank you for all of your help Lucy x
We got engaged on Xmas day and quickly decided we wanted to be married in Sorrento, so we went searching to see how you go about it. I researched a few wedding companies and I came across Ionian Weddings, had a look on their socials and decided to enquire..and I’m so glad we did! Lucy was in contact quickly and went through everything with me, settled my nerves and answered all my questions. Within 2 days we had picked and booked our venue for May 2025! Feels great to have a planner dedicated both here in UK and also when we arrive in Italy, this will take all the stress of trying to organise it all ourselves! Thank you Lucy for all your help so far. Lynne & Garry
So far so good! Lucy has been very helpful in assisting my fiancé and I in booking a date for our wedding ceremony and reception in Sorrento, Italy. Lucy has been quick to answer any questions that we have had and everything so far has been straight forward. We have a bit of a wait until our wedding, as it is in June 2025, but we look forward to working with Lucy and will update this review when we have made some further progress and to let you know how it all went!
Planning our dream wedding in Sorrento, Italy was made seamless and stress-free thanks to the exceptional service provided by Lucy at Ionian Weddings. From the initial stages of inquiry, Lucy, was incredibly responsive, attentive, and enthusiastic about our plans for a destination wedding and helped us to lock in our special day!
We have recently booked our wedding through Ionian weddings, Lucy has been a absolute god send answering any questions quickly and securing our dream venue and perfect date that means the world. We look forward to working with Lucy over the next year to help us plan our big day. I am so excited and know I will definitely be very grateful of all Lucy's help and knowledge xx
Only made the decision to get married this year at the beginning of January! Had no idea exactly where or even when. Sent an initial enquiry to Ionian Weddings and Lucy replied. Over the next few days, with a lot of research and many questions, we finally decided on a date and venue. Throughout it all Lucy was very responsive and provided the information we requested. She has been excellent and we definitely would not have got this wedding booked without all her help. Thank you so much. Now it’s full steam ahead to end of August 2024
We have recently booked our wedding through Ionian weddings, Lucy has been brilliant by answering any questions quickly and securing our dream venue. We look forward to working with Lucy over the next year to plan the rest of our dream day x
We got married in Sorrento in Sept 2023. As soon as we started planning our wedding, we knew we wanted to do it in Italy. We'd been to Sorrento 5 years prior for a holiday, and decided it would be the perfect destination as it offers enough for guests who like to sight-see and keep busy, but can equally be a relaxing chill by the pool or sea type of holiday. I'm also a very nostalgic person, so returning to a place we loved so much the first time was a no-brainer. Our wedding day was perfect and truly captured the classical and romantic Italian feel we wanted. We had our ceremony at the Cloisters followed by a reception at the Grand Hotel Royal. I had dreamt of sitting by the sea with the sun setting in the background during our wedding, and the views there were breathtaking & even better than I imagined. Our initial contact at Ionian was Pat who helped us with choosing our package. Maria was incredible during the entire planning process, always replying promptly and trying to accommodate our requests, and Viola (our co-ordinator in Italy) was exceptional. She was so thorough, organised and attentive that even some of our guests commented on what a great job she was doing on the day. Rosaria performed our ceremony and was lovely and warm. A huge grazie to you all. We received our wedding video a few weeks ago and I must have watched it at least 50 times already, it's almost like being back there... If you are looking to plan a wedding abroad (particularly in Sorrento) then we highly recommend Ionian Weddings. I am not quite sure how we would have managed to plan such a special day without their help.
What can I say? It was simply perfect from beginning to end! The whole process was a dream and Maria was amazing! We originally wanted to get married in Tuscany so flew to Florence in 2019 to view 2 venues which were perfect then covid hit. We waited until 2021 to start planning again and decided actually Sorrento was where we wanted to go. Again we flew out viewed the cloisters (which we fell in love with) then 2 reception venues. Again both were perfect but decided on grand hotel royal! Ionian kept us on track and organised everything down to every little detail. Anything we wanted we sent a picture to Maria who loaded with the wedding planners in Italy and booked it. They provide you with a brochure of things you can add to the package which just ensures you don’t miss anything! The day was beautiful and simply perfect. Valeria was the coordinator on the day (but also met us earlier in the week to meet the florist/ photographer etc) and she just sorted everything- we didn’t have to worry about anything! If you’re thinking of booking do! We had no idea where to start and we genuinely couldn’t have done it without them and can’t thank them enough! The whole experience was totally stress free and worth every penny. Thank you Ionian!
All I can say is WOW! I have always dreamed of getting married in Italy but was apprehensive about how difficult it would be and whether it would be a viable option for us. After looking at a few different companies online I discovered Ionian Weddings and loved how everything was customisable to suit every budget and there wasn't a huge fee added to the bill. From the initial planning stages all the way to the big day they were always there answering questions and genuinely could not have been more helpful. At no point did I feel overwhelmed or stressed, everything was taken care of. I was on a few Facebook groups with brides who were also getting married in Sorrento and seeing their struggles with legal documents and dealing with Italian vendors I felt so relieved that I had chosen a company to help me through all of it. Maria was fabulous and thought of every detail. The team in Sorrento were unbelievable! Everything went so smooth and I could enjoy my day without having to think about a thing. It was genuinely the best day of our lives and so many of our guests said the same! The day was faultless and it was definitely down to the excellent organisation of Ionian, the Sorrento Planning Team and Villa Antiche Mura. The day exceeded all expectations and I would say if you're thinking of an abroad wedding, Ionian is a brilliant company to choose and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to all future brides!
I cannot thank Ionian weddings enough for the amazing service they provided us! From start to finish our wedding planning was made so easy and nothing was too much trouble. Our planner Helen was always so efficient at replying to any queries I had and went above and beyond to make sure our plans were perfectly in place. We got married in Cyprus and as soon as we were there our wedding coordinator Leanne was again, amazing and efficient. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and couldn’t have run anymore smoothly. Even our guests were telling us how great the whole day went and how amazing Ionian weddings were. I would 100% recommend to anyone who wishes to get married abroad.

May 11,2024Myself and my partner have just picked and secured our Cyprus wedding venue for May 2026. We were unsure of exactly what we wanted and had been disappointed with other venues being fully booked, Patricia was great in helping us find a perfect venue and securing a date. Looking forward to working with Ionian weddings to make our day special!
