BeachWeddings – Don’t Risk a Washout!

Over the last decade or so, beach weddings have become much more popular, particularly with people from colder countries who want to make sure that their wedding day doesn't suffer from the potential risk of being a wash out. The day you commit to your partner for the rest of your life is a huge event, so it's understandable that you want to make contingencies to ensure that your special day isn't hindered by bad weather.

Many people naturally assume that beach weddings come with a huge price tag, and although this may not be a barrier to some people, there are ways that you can enjoy a beach wedding while still keeping costs within budget. By looking at destinations that tend to have sunshine and temperate conditions at all times of the year, you can avoid the peak season to help keep flights and accommodation costs realistic for both the happy couple, and also the wedding guests.

Weddings in Cyprus mean sunshine galore!

If an off peak wedding somewhere sunny sounds like a good idea, it's worth looking towards destinations such as Cyprus. A popular location for nuptials, weddings in Cyprus allow you to choose a quieter period to hold your special day while still being pretty much guaranteed plenty of sunshine and good temperatures. By staying clear of the summer months where the school holidays make for high volumes of travellers, you can keep your costs much lower while still being able to celebrate your special day in a beautiful location, with all of the benefits that a beach wedding can offer.

It's not just the great weather that makes Cyprus the ideal place for beachweddings either - there are plenty of other incentives to make this your top choice. If you and your loved one are real romantics, nothing could be more fitting than getting wed at the same place where the goddess of love, Aphrodite, is alleged to have been born. The beautiful and traditionally Cypriot area of Pissouri is perfect for beach weddings due to its association with this legendary icon of love and it's far enough away from some of the larger tourist areas to ensure that you can enjoy your day undisturbed by hordes of nosy holidaymakers!

Making the most of your special day

Weddings in Cyprus are also a popular choice due to the incredible scenery that you can enjoy from any part of the island – and on top of that you’ll also be able to take advantage of the fantastic service that the Cypriot people so pride themselves on. Beach weddings in Cyprus give you the stunning blue backdrop of the Mediterranean, which will inject some colour into your wedding album and depending on the area you choose, you can also turn around and feature the majestic mountain ranges as part of your wedding photo shoot. In terms of service, Cyprus has long been applauded for the approachable, friendly nature of the locals - and because they are also relatively demure you can be sure that you will get well looked after without being constantly hounded with questions and interruptions. This helpful but subtle attention means that your guests will have all of their needs catered for, while at the same time having their privacy respected - helping to ensure that your wedding in Cyprus is a truly magical time.
