| Beyond the Bougainvillea: Meet your Greek Wedding Planner |
Our Story
Before Nymfee was created, I worked for several years as an events manager for wedding venues in Greece (on islands mostly!). The following day of each wedding, I always made sure to have a quick chat with the couple.
Imagine this: While I brew coffee for them (kidding, it was usually a gin tonic at the next day beach party), I ask what they wish they could change in the wedding planning process.
**Spoiler alert, it was never the investment they made in wedding planning.**
As it turns out, their number one regret was how much importance they had placed on tiny little details and the stress that came from it. They wish they had known in advance, that on the day of their wedding in Greece, they would
…dance so much…
...laugh uncontrollably at a speech they had been too stressed to make...
…take so many awkward polaroid & candid pictures…
…be hugged by their loved ones so tight…
…cry so many tears of laughter over the surprise video their best friend had prepared…
They wish they had been prepared to be surrounded by loved ones on the stunning azure coast of their chosen Greek island, and to feel so genuinely happy, that eventually, they hadn’t even noticed the Pantone color of the napkins (and apparently, the choice of that perfect Pantone color had been debated over for weeks).
And so, Nymfee Weddings was created.

Our Philosophy
You most probably have already done some research on wedding planning in Greece and realized that, hey! This is going to be a full-time job.
Well, your only important task at this stage is to match yourself with a wedding planner in Greece that has the same vibes as you.
Have you smiled at a light breeze of wind by the sea, enjoying the sunset colors and just feel at place? This is what we have in mind when we inspect venues.
Have you dipped your feet in the sand while enjoying a perfectly cold cocktail? This is what we have in mind when we design ceremonies.
Have you lost yourself in the party lights, while singing your favorite songs with your loved ones? This is what we have in mind when we set the scene for parties.
But most importantly, we help you focus on the most valued aspects of your wedding (like how much your brother in law is allowed to drink. And Pantone colors of course, but no one will be able to remember the Pantone when there is a video of your brother in law karaoking.)
Who We Are
Even though I had been planning my own wedding since I was sixteen, it never occurred to me that I could actually do this for a living. It was just a dream and a love for all things romance. And then, I met Nadia.
At the time, she had chosen me to replace her at her corporate job, and from the moment we met, we clicked. It was one of those rare, instant connections, like meeting someone you were always meant to know. “One day, I am going to steal you,” she said. Spoiler alert: she did.
Fast forward to today, and here I am—completely stolen and exactly where I’m meant to be.
Hopelessly romantic, in love with love, and endlessly drawn to the emotions that make weddings so magical.
The way a mother sneaks a tearful glance at her child, now all grown up.
The way best friends exchange knowing looks before an epic toast.
The way two people, surrounded by everyone who matters most, take in the enormity of the moment.
And my absolute favorite part? When the bride arrives. The whole room collectively holds its breath, all eyes on her. But me? I instictively look at the groom, captured by his raw reaction when he spots his forever love walking down the aisle. A moment in time that is pure Love, Appreciation, Happiness, Peace.
My favorite kind of magic.
And yes, I will cry at your wedding. Every. Single. Time.

Our Experience
Please, do not let the fun part of us seduce you. We are not just pleasant to work with, we also know what we are doing.
As professionals, we have been creating events (the very "serious" type like corporate, media, conferences, and special occasion celebrations) since 2008.
In 2016 a beautiful plot twist brought us to the Greek wedding industry, and this has been the “happily ever after” career point. But a degree in Wedding Planning from the New York Institute of Art and Design, I guess is an asset :)
This is exactly how wedding planning should be. Personal. Customized. Unique. Professional with a pinch of crazy.
Enjoy the wedding planning ride!
