Q + A
Will there be a designated Travel Agent to help with flights if necessary?
SEE TRAVEL TAB - we have engaged a lovely agent at Love Voyage by the name of Mel to assist you with booking flights and accommodations where needed. Group flights will give you the most peace of mind AND buys you time to set up a payment plan without needing passport credentials and balance until May 2025. We recommend arriving into Crete on Aug 18th and leaving on 24th/25th which is when the group flight is. We know many of you are extending stays so please be aware you can still utilize Mel to tailor your travel where applicable. You are also free to utilize your own travel agents.
Feel free to reach out directly to Mel:

When should we aim to RSVP?
Please try to RSVP by January 21 2025 ; especially if aiming to utilize Group travel agent. Having said that, we can revise wedding numbers up until April 2025.

Many guests are staying at villas or Air BnB in the area; but some are also staying at the various hotels in the area.
What are some recommended hotels in area aside from Amirandes?

Will there be an opportunity to celebrate with Bride & Groom outside of Greece?
We completely understand if you are unable to make the trip due to scheduling, budgeting, travel restrictions etc.; we have provided a Q&A during the RSVP to state your preference on how you would want to celebrate with us if unable to attend. If there is enough feedback for a larger group event back in Canada we will look into renting out a restaurant for a cocktail event; OR we will absolutely make time for those who rather do 1X1 dinners etc.
