A vow spoken
between sea and stone.
Private proposals, elopements and micro-weddings on Crete, planned, paced and stewarded by a local team trusted by international couples.
Crete is not a backdrop. It is an accomplice, the warm stone at your back, the salt on your lips, the lone olive that has kept vigil for nine hundred summers.
We design one event at a time. No wedding factories, no rented wedding-speak. Every proposal and micro-wedding we take on is led personally by our founder, supported by a roster of vetted Cretan florists, cellists, chefs, and officiants.
Five ways to mark a single day.
From candlelit beach proposals to private sunset cruises and luxury villa moments, every experience is built around one question: where will this memory live forever?
After the yes, the wedding.
Some couples come to Crete for the question. Others stay to give the answer. Our micro-weddings are small by design - elopements, intimate ceremonies, and villa weddings, planned with the same single-planner pacing as our proposals.

Peace of mind, in your timezone.
Planning a wedding 10,000 km from home is a trust exercise. We designed CreteVows around what American and Canadian couples asked for, line by line.
A single planner, start to finish
You will speak to the same person on day one and on the morning of your ceremony. No handoffs, no concierge pool.
Calls on North American time
Discovery calls between 9 AM and 9 PM EST / PST. We answer, or we call back within two business hours.
USD-locked quotes, no FX surprises
Packages are priced and contracted in US dollars. Vendor euros are our problem, not yours.
Legal marriage made straightforward
