My Wedding Cyprus

Cyprus – the island of love! North Cyprus is becoming one of the most popular wedding destinations in Europe. With breath-taking scenery, over 300 days of sunshine a year, fabulous venues and outside the Eurozone, its popularity is not surprising.

Cyprus is the third largest island situated in the Mediterranean and just 40 miles south of the Turkish coast. Turquoise seas and impressive mountains, it makes a stunning wedding location. It has been home to the Knights Templar and Richard the Lionheart. Due to its copper, it was once one of the wealthiest areas in the Med. With its crusader castles, turtle hatching grounds, wild donkeys, untouched beaches in the Karpaz, wild orchids, the spectacular Kyrenia harbour and the ancient kingdom of Salamis, Cyprus has something to offer everyone that visits.

With the cost of an average UK wedding being quoted now as £20,000, it’s not surprising that more and more couples are looking to escape to more exotic and affordable destinations. Weddings in Northern Cyprus are approximately a third of the cost of a similar UK wedding.

What could be more romantic than exchanging vows on the ‘island of love’ the birthplace of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who is said to have risen from the waves rolling into the beautiful Cypriot coastline.
