After looking at various venues in the UK and booking our wedding day, we went on a holiday to Paxos. Having had a fantastic few weeks we arrived home and decided to cancel our plans for a UK wedding and get married over there! We came across “Paxos Weddings” and everything soon fell into place. Sam and Stuart were fantastic, they understood immediately that we wanted a really laid back day, and completely reassured us that they were able to provide that.
We spoke with them several times before arriving on the island; emails were always replied to promptly and their knowledge of Paxos is unsurpassed. From advice about the documents we needed down to who could provide canapés, they always had the answers.
The BIG plus point for us when using Paxos Weddings were their contacts on the island. Four days before our wedding day an unseasonal rainstorm was forecast. We had a pre-arranged meeting with Sam and Stu and before we could even ask their advice they had the solution. They’d already made plans for our day to be moved forward by 24 hours to miss the storm and had arranged it with the Town Hall/all the different suppliers, if that was ok with us!
Their flexibility and resourcefulness was also evident on the day itself. Originally we had been planning to hold the Reception at our villa; as intermittent rain was forecast, however, Sam suggested that we instead hold this at the restaurant run by the caterers (Carnayo). This worked perfectly; Sam and the team at Carnayo transformed the restaurant into the most amazing setting.
In short, we cannot thank Sam and Stu enough. We had the most wonderful, stress-free wedding we had dreamed of. Without them it could quite literally have been a washout!
