Civil
Ceremony, the most popular type of ceremony for a
wedding abroad is the civil one, which is a short ceremony
performed by the mayor of Santorini or registrar of the town
hall to the wedding venue that you have chosen.
Each town hall in Greece has their own rules as to where
they will allow ceremonies to take place. In Santorini, most of
the weddings ceremonies are outdoors on the beautiful Caldera (
by the cliff of the Island).
The civil ceremony is very short (15 - 20 minutes), you are
allowed to customize the ceremony by saying your own vows to
each other or having some close friends or family do a
reading. The certificate is legally binding around the world and
has no connection to any religious faith.
