Venues for your wedding ceremony
Lindos is a spectacularly beautiful setting for a wedding, ideal
for such a celebration of love and life. We have chosen a selection
of enchanting venues within our village where you may be married
in a civil wedding ceremony which will be conducted by the Registrar
of Lindos. Please note that unless both parties to the marriage
are members of the Greek Orthodox faith, the ceremony will take
place outside the respective chapels.
St Paul’s Chapel, St Paul’s Bay, Lindos
Perhaps the most picturesque setting of all, this tiny chapel
is perched below a cliff face in the shadow of the acropolis of
Lindos, next to the turquoise waters of St Paul’s Bay.
This is one of the most popular venues for weddings in Lindos
as the surroundings make for such fantastic photographs. The chapel’s
sea front location means that you have the option of either all
or some of your wedding party arriving by boat. Alternatively,
musicians playing traditional Greek musical instruments can accompany
you on your descent from the village down the path to the chapel
itself. This is the perfect venue for anyone who imagines having
the sand between their toes for their wedding album photos!
St George Pachymachiotes Chapel, Lindos
This charming traditional chapel is positioned overlooking the
sweep of Lindos bay with views towards the plateia (village square)
and the surrounding olive and orange groves, across Megalos Gialos
(the main beach). The setting is absolutely typical of what one
expects of a Greek village wedding. To complement the atmosphere,
traditional musicians can accompany you as you walk through the
maze of bougainvillea filled streets to make your vows.
St Dimitrios Chapel, Lindos
This is a darling little chapel set dramatically beneath the acropolis
of Lindos atop a terraced area and is approached along a charming
stone path. The panoramic views across Megalos Gialos (the main
beach) are breathtaking and provide an amazing background for
your wedding photographs.
A traditional mode of transport for a Greek village bride in days
gone was a donkey festooned with flower garlands and St Dimitrios
Chapel would be a fabulous setting for adding such a traditional
Greek touch.
The Registrar of Lindos is happy to conduct civil
wedding ceremonies at the Municipal Offices in Lindos and at a
selection of hotels in the Lindos area as well as in the surrounding
villages.
The Lindos Wedding Planner is also more than happy to organise
your ceremony in a selection of other venues around the island
of Rhodes. Please contact us if you have a specific location in
mind or to find out more about venues we recommend.
