invite you to celebrate our wedding
August 21, 2027
Kyperounta, Cyprus
Rather than celebrating for just one day, we’re planning a week of events for everyone who is able to join us.
Attendance at every event is completely optional. Come to as much or as little as you’d like. Our goal is simply to spend quality time with everyone before the wedding, and to show you around Cyprus.
Every event is optional. Join us for as much or as little as you’d like.
We’ll be spending a few days by the beach before the wedding and you are welcome to join us. Location TBD.
Guests arrive in the village and join us for a welcome dinner.
We’ll have some suggestions of activities to do during the day. We’ll gather for another dinner together.
We’ve kept today purposely light on planned activities so everyone can recuperate and get ready for the big day. Relax, enjoy the village, and save your energy.
Alamata & Ceremony · Karvounas
Wedding · Oenou Yi Winery, Omodos
Dress code: summer formal. Timing to be announced. Dancing will go late into the night.
We’ll gather for pites, traditionally made by Cypriots the day after the wedding.
We know many of you will need to head out on Sunday, but if you have time, we’d recommend staying for this!
We know that traveling to Cyprus is a bigger trip than many weddings, so we want to make planning as easy as possible. Below are a few things to know as you begin planning your trip.
We recommend flying into Larnaca International Airport (LCA), which will be the most convenient airport for our wedding events.
If you’re traveling from the United States, you’ll typically have one stop in a major European hub before continuing to Cyprus. Common connections include cities such as London, Zurich, Frankfurt, Munich, Vienna, and Athens.
Another great option is to book separate flights: a round-trip ticket to a European city you’d like to visit, plus a separate round-trip ticket between that city and Cyprus. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to add another destination to your trip, this can be a great way to turn the wedding into a longer European vacation.
We have reserved several Airbnbs and hotel blocks to keep everyone together in convenient locations. Once the RSVP deadline passes, we’ll reach out with your room details, including prices.
Outside of the wedding day, we expect taxis to be the easiest way to get around. Rental cars are also a great option if you’d like to explore more of the island before or after the wedding.
For those planning to rent a car, we recommend [Rental Car Company]. A few things to know before driving in Cyprus:
We’ll provide transportation to and from the wedding reception so everyone can enjoy the celebration without worrying about getting home safely.
August is beautiful in Cyprus, but temperatures vary depending on where you are.
Expect hot, sunny weather perfect for swimming and spending time outdoors. Lightweight clothing and sunscreen are highly recommended.
Although the days are still warm, Kyperounta sits in the mountains, so evenings are noticeably cooler than on the coast. We recommend packing a light sweater or jacket for dinners and late-night celebrations.
A few things we recommend bringing:
A few things you might be wondering.

A few things worth knowing if it’s your first time in Cyprus.
Kyperounta sits high in the Troodos Mountains, where pine forests cover the slopes and it’s noticeably cooler than on the coast. Our wedding is nearby in Omodos, a wine village. With a free morning, try an easy walk among the pines or visit one of the UNESCO-listed painted churches.
Order meze at a taverna: a long parade of small shared dishes that keeps coming, so pace yourself. Halloumi is everywhere, grilled or fried and often served with watermelon in summer. Try Commandaria, a sweet dessert wine from the Troodos foothills and one of the oldest named wines in the world.
Cyprus uses the euro. Cards are widely accepted, but carry some cash for villages and small shops. Outlets are the UK-style three-pin type, so bring an adapter. English is widely spoken. Tipping isn’t expected at restaurants, but 10% is a nice gesture if you’d like to.
Extending your trip? Limassol has a seafront and old town, Paphos has ancient mosaics and beaches, and Larnaca has a beach promenade near the airport. Nicosia (Lefkosia), the capital, has a walled old town and plenty of cafés. Ayia Napa and Protaras are known for their sandy beaches.
Most people in Cyprus speak English, but a few words of Greek are always appreciated.
