The Details
DRESS CODE - SMART
Note for the choice of footwear that the reception will be held in a country estate which has unpaved areas.
TRANSPORTATION
The church is in the heart of Athens, just moments from Syntagma Square. Sinterina, where the reception will take place, is approximately one hour south of Athens. For your convenience, transportation will be provided from the church to the venue, with return shuttle services operating from 23:00 to 4:00 to Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Syntagma.
WHERE TO STAY
The city centre is ideal for a true Athenian experience, while the Athenian Riviera offers a laid-back, island-style setting with beaches and refined dining. Here you will find our recommendations for both areas.
RSVP
BEFORE 30TH APRIL
Travel
TO ATHENS
ATHENS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Located 33 km (20 miles) southeast of Athens, it is easily accessible via Attiki Odos, a major highway constituting the Athens City Ring Road. Public transport to Athens is provided by the metro & express airport bus connections.
TAXI SERVICE
For getting around Athens, taxis are easy to find and a convenient way to travel between the airport, hotels, and the city centre.
We recommend booking in advance for airport transfers.
TAXI - PRE BOOKING
You can also pre-book your taxi with Welcome Pickups. The driver will meet you at the arrivals' exit.
Accommodation
We suggest a stay in the Athens Riviera. This is equidistant from the church and the reception with a 30 minute drive to and from each. A stay in the centre of Athens would put you close to the church and would be wonderful for sightseeing but is about an hour's drive from the reception

Site Seeing
ATHENS RIVIERA
Temple of Poseidon - Sounio
The Temple of Poseidon at Sounio, it is one of the most significant sanctuaries of the ancient world and a beautiful spot to view the sunset (or sunrise).
Lake Vouliagmeni
The lake enjoys a temperature of 24° C thanks to underground hot springs. Its water, full of minerals and salt is believed to cure many ailments and skin issues. There is also an excellent cafe-bar-restaurant and shower facilities.
Stavros Niarchos Foundation
The impressive Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) designed by famous Italian architect Renzo Piano – is the latest addition to the capital’s art and culture scene. It is the new, state-of-the-art home for the Greek National Opera and the National Library of Greece, with a two-million-book capacity. The 170,000-sq-metre green park is in regular use, with temporary art exhibitions and free public events.
Glyfada Neighbourhood
Glyfada is well known for its vibrant atmosphere, lively entertainment, interesting shopping, and of course the beach. If you’re looking for a relaxing time and some great food by the beach, Glyfada is a great spot!
ATHENS CITY CENTER
Acropolis
Rising up from the centre of Athens is the Acropolis, an ancient citadel on a rocky outcrop, with the Parthenon and several other archaeological sites, including the Roman Agora and Hadrian’s Library. Dedicated to the Greek goddess of Athena, the ancient Acropolis is where philosophers once questioned the universe; democracy and freedom of speech were born; and temples were built to honour the ancient Greek gods. You can also stand on the Areopagus, where the apostle Paul preached a famous sermon as recounted in Acts 17. The Acropolis can be seen from almost anywhere in the centre of Athens, but if you want truly spectacular views of this ancient wonder, we recommend hopping from hillside by day to rooftop bar by night.
The 5th-century B.C. temple complex on Athens’ hilltop can be visited from 8am-8pm Tue-Sun (Mon 11am-7pm)
Acropolis Museum
Walking distance from the Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum is brilliantly perched above Athens like a luminous box, housing more than 3,000 artefacts.
Odeon of Herodes Atticus
This large amphitheatre was built in AD 161 by wealthy Roman Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife Regilla. It was excavated in 1857–58 and completely restored from 1950–61. The Athens & Epidaurus Festival holds drama, music and dance performances here in the summer. When you're visiting the Acropolis site, the path leads west from the top of the Stoa of Eumenes, and you can peer down into the odeon from above.
Plaka Area
Plaka is one of the oldest yet trendiest neighbourhoods in central Athens full of narrow alleys, shopping boutiques, restaurants, and colourful townhouses. This historic little gem, which was once the central heart of the small city of Athens, is now an area where visitors and locals enjoy wandering around, picking up local souvenirs, enjoying brunch or having a coffee on the stairs of a little ouzeri.
