Once in Cyprus
You will be welcomed at the airport by one of our
representatives and advised when your personal wedding co-ordinator
will be visiting you to discuss all the details of your
wedding, including special requirements and you will be
advised what documentation will be required to complete.
Arrangements will also be made to visit the Town Hall or
church accordingly. You will also be given a 24hr contact
number of your personal wedding co-ordinator.
Registry Office
Weddings
There are two kinds or registry office weddings. Marriage
by Notice and Marriage by Special Licence. The main difference
is that Marriage by Notice requires 15 days of proceedings
before the actual ceremony can take place and minimum stay of
20 days in Cyprus.
Marriage by Special Licence can be performed within 3-4
days. In both cases the maximum validity of the licence is 3
months. However, Marriage by Notice costs less than Marriage
by Special Licence. For both licences the following
documentation is needed:
The ceremony will take place in the Town Hall of your
chosen resort city under licence, all these will be arranged
for you. The Marriage Officer or the Mayor of the resort
conducts the ceremony in English.
Church Weddings
Couples wishing to marry in a Church must first apply to
the Marriage Officer in any Municipality in the Republic of
Cyprus. When applying, the couple must provide an affidavit
that they are free to marry, birth certificates, and
passports. Your wedding co-ordinator will assist you with all
formalities.
It should be pointed out that any person who willfully
makes a false statement or declaration, required by law is
liable to imprisonment.
It is important to note that in order for a Catholic
marriage to be valid, it is required that a registry office
ceremony must take place prior to the religious service.
You should advise the priest of your local Parish of your
intention to conduct your Catholic service in Cyprus, who in
turn will furnish you with the required documents to bring
with you and hand over to the priest who will be performing
the religious service.
ALL relevant documentation for all of the above must be
obtained prior to departure.
Anglican Chaplains, who are registered ministers for
performing marriages, will conduct the ceremony by prior
appointment. Divorcees cannot be married in the Limassol
Anglican church.
Persons under eighteen years of age.
If either party to the intended marriage is under eighteen
years of age, the written consent of the father, or if he is
dead or incapable of consenting, of the mother or, if both are
dead or incapable of consenting, of the lawful guardian of
such party, must be produced to the Marriage Officer on their
application.
Extra Services
Wedding flowers
Enhance your ceremony with beautiful floral designs.
Please be aware that certain flowers may not be in season.
Wedding video
You will never regret selecting a professional to capture
the sounds, colors and movements of a once in a lifetime
experience.
If you have asked a member of your family to video your
wedding please ensure that you have lots of spare batteries as
the heat generally drains electrical items. Please also
remember that the person on the end of the camera will not be
in your video so make sure someone takes over even for a short
while.
Wedding photographs
To ensure you have memories to last a lifetime we have
selected the most professional photographers in Cyprus.
The photographer will cover your last celibant moments, the
ceremony and the celebrations to follow. If you so decide you
can have more formal, staged photographs with the background
of your choice.
The day after your wedding your proofs will be delivered to
the hotel to choose which ones you want enlarged and placed in
your album. Your wedding album will be ready for you to take
back home the morning of your departure.
Wedding limousines
Wedding limousines are either 4 or 6 seats. The limousine
will pick you up and stay with you for as long as needed.
If you have lots of guests then a minibus or a coach is a
good idea. Prices vary depending on the number of seats of the
bus and the location of your accommodation.
Your wedding day
You leave the hotel approximately 25 minutes before your
ceremony is due to start. The exact time will be given to you
by your wedding co-ordinator. Either the wedding car driver or
a member of the TOP KINISIS wedding team will deliver your
flowers to the hotel and advise you when it is time to leave.
If you are going separately then the groom will leave just
five minutes before the bride. If you have arranged for
photographs and video the cameramen will meet you there.
After the wedding you can move on to the place chosen for
more photos or back to the hotel or the venue chosen for your
reception.
Your reception
This is the one thing you can arrange during your stay,
with our assistance of course.
Your wedding reception can be as sophisticated or as casual
as you like. In deciding what you want there are one or two
points you may want to take into consideration.
Most hotels and apartments offer a reception facility. The
price will depend on what you require to eat and how you want
the table set out.
There are a number of restaurants and bars in the resort
cities that will be more than happy to arrange something for
your special day.
Have your wedding party on a boat! What a unique way to
celebrate! Have the whole boat to yourselves and invite up to
100 guests to celebrate your special occasion on board. To the
accompaniment of the latest sounds the boat will cruise the
bay whilst the party carries on - a great chance to experience
partying under the stars!!! Dancing on the fore deck is a must
while the Bar will quench the thirsty. Self-catering or fully
catered options are available as are any other special
requests.
Make the most of your stay in Cyprus!
Cyprus is often referred to as the gateway to the Eastern
Mediterranean. Cruise away to the mystery and adventure after
a spectacular wedding ceremony and wedding reception.
Mini-cruises to Israel and Egypt, cruises to the Greek islands
and Mini Tours by air to Jordan, Syria and Lebanon.
Alternatively you and your guests can join our local
excursions to explore Cyprus with multilingual experienced
guides in luxury coaches.
Renewal of Wedding Vows
If you have thought of renewing your wedding vows in
Church, then what better place to do it than Cyprus. You will
need to bring a wedding certificate with you. The cost will be
the same as for a church wedding, no wedding license or
affidavits are required.
Your wedding arrangements
Some of your wedding arrangements can be organised prior to
your arrival and confirmed during your first meeting with your
co-ordinator.
Once in Cyprus, all the details will be discussed in person
with your co-ordinator and you will have the opportunity to
request something extra such as a limousine service,
photographer, video, etc.
Please advise us prior to the initial visit if you will
have guests with special needs, such as wheelchairs as some
venues may not be easily accessible.
