Elysium Hotel - Weddings

The Elysium stands in an outstanding location overlooking the shore from where the most spectacular sunsets can be enjoyed. The hotel's unique architectural charm with its Byzantine styling ensures the perfect backdrop for stunning wedding photographs. The hotel is one of the top five star hotels and its staff works hard to ensure that each of its guests enjoys their stay in its beautiful surroundings. All wedding couples are treated like royalty and their wedding day is carefully coordinated by the hotel's experienced wedding coordinators, who work hard to ensure that it is the wedding of their dreams whether they have six guests or sixty, so it comes as no surprise that the hotel only hosts one wedding per day.

The wedding day should be enjoyed by the bride and groom and their guests and it is important that they can relax and enjoy each other's company. With this in mind, the Elysium's wedding coordinators discuss all aspects with the couple and works with them, discussing the beautiful variety of locations for the ceremony within the hotel and its grounds, the type of service they would like, menus, entertainment and much more.

There is plenty of choice at each stage. Civil ceremonies can be held at the Elysium or at the elegant Paphos Town Hall, just a short drive away. For those seeking a religious ceremony, these can be held in different rooms within the hotel, in its magnificent outdoor amphitheatre or in the shade of a gazebo in the hotel's beautiful grounds. Alternatively, the beautiful church of Ayia Kyriaki ( St Paul's Pillar) is also just a short drive away. The wedding coordinator will ensure that all the legal formalities are completed in good time as all weddings performed in Paphos are recognised worldwide.

With the style and the location for the ceremony decided, thoughts can turn to Reception location and menus and how the area will be decorated with crisp white table linen, red carpet and rose petals. There is advice and plenty of suggestions about musical entertainment and all the trimmings such as wedding cars, cakes, flowers and photographers which the coordinators organise quickly and efficiently. Certainly they know the perfect locations for the photographs and these include various areas in the hotel gardens, the shore and the nearby archaeological site of Tombs of the Kings..and with more than 330 days of sunshine each year...wedding photos or videos with umbrellas are a rarity!

For the bride and her bridesmaids the Elysium's excellent hairdressers, beauticians and spa staff are ready to help everyone look their best on the special day. 
Many of the couples who have married at the Elysium have found that it really has been the wedding of their dreams and return each year to mark their anniversary.
