Tie the knot in Crete

Crete – the biggest of the Greek islands – serves up a collection of top-class hotels for legal, symbolic, and renewal-of-vows ceremonies.  

  

All our weddings in Crete take place in handpicked hotels. Choose from venues like the Aldemar Knossos Royal – where Greek-style buildings tumble down to a private white beach – and the TUI BLUE Sensatori Atlantica Caldera Palace. This one comes loaded with pools, and flaunts a beachy postcode.  

  

Once you’ve tied the knot, stay in Crete a little longer and dive into some of the island’s activities. Iconic sights include the Palace of Knossos in Heraklion and the old town in Chania. There are 650 miles of beach to explore, too – the best way to find cute tucked-away bays is to hire a car and take the coast road around the island.
