Everything You Get with The Villa Group
One of the first questions couples ask when exploring Cyprus villa weddings is simple yet crucial: "What exactly am I getting?" This question deserves a thorough, transparent answer—not vague promises or hidden costs discovered later, but complete clarity about every service, every detail, and every element included in your investment.
At The Villa Group Weddings, we believe in absolute transparency. Our all-inclusive packages provide comprehensive wedding services without surprising add-ons or hidden fees. This detailed guide explains exactly what's included in each of our three wedding packages, what you'll receive, how services work together, and why our approach delivers exceptional value for Cyprus villa celebrations.
By understanding precisely what your package includes, you can make informed decisions, budget confidently, and relax knowing every essential element of your wedding is professionally handled by our experienced in-house team.
Our Three Comprehensive Packages
The Villa Group Weddings offers three distinct packages, each designed for different celebration scales whilst maintaining our commitment to quality, comprehensive service, and transparent value.
Package Overview
Intimate Beginnings Package - Starting from €4,986 for 20 guests. Perfect for couples seeking beautiful, heartfelt celebrations with closest family and friends. This package includes all essential elements for a complete wedding without unnecessary extras.
Romantic Retreat Package - Starting from €6,766 for 30 guests. Our most popular choice, offering comprehensive services for mid-sized celebrations. This package balances extensive inclusions with excellent value, providing everything needed for memorable celebrations.
Ultimate Dream Package - Starting from €10,581 for 40 guests. The pinnacle of Cyprus villa weddings, featuring premium services, extended coverage, and luxury touches throughout. This package delivers the absolute best of everything.
Important Note: Package prices cover wedding services only and do not include villa rental fees. Prices correct as of December 2025. You select your perfect wedding villa separately, allowing you to choose accommodation that perfectly matches your guest count, location preferences, and budget. This separation ensures you're not paying for villa features you don't need whilst guaranteeing your wedding services meet our exacting standards.
What Every Package Includes
Certain services form the foundation of every Villa Group wedding, included in all three packages to ensure complete, successful celebrations regardless of which package you choose.
Complete Wedding Planning & Coordination
Every package includes full wedding planning services from our experienced team at Tie the Knot Cyprus. This isn't basic coordination—it's comprehensive planning from your first enquiry through your final dance.
What This Means: Your dedicated wedding planner guides every decision, coordinates all vendors and services, creates detailed timelines, manages all logistics, handles problem-solving, and ensures your day unfolds flawlessly. You're never navigating this journey alone—experienced professionals support you throughout.
Legal Document Assistance: Cyprus marriages involve specific documentation requirements. We assist with understanding these requirements, obtaining necessary documents, and ensuring everything is properly completed. This guidance proves invaluable for couples unfamiliar with Cyprus legal procedures.
Day-of Coordination: On your wedding day, our team manages every detail—vendor arrivals, setup supervision, timeline execution, troubleshooting any issues, and ensuring seamless flow from ceremony through reception. You remain fully present and relaxed whilst we handle all logistics.
Legal Licences & Town Hall Fees
All packages include the essential legal requirements for your Cyprus civil marriage ceremony:
Civil Wedding Licence: The official licence authorising your marriage in Cyprus, processed through proper channels with all required documentation.
Registrar Services: The official registrar who conducts your civil ceremony, ensuring your marriage is legally binding and properly documented.
Wedding Certificate: Your official marriage certificate documenting your legal union.
Apostille Stamp: This crucial stamp validates your Cyprus marriage certificate for international recognition, ensuring your marriage is legally recognised in your home country. Without this apostille, you might face complications having your Cyprus marriage accepted elsewhere—we ensure this critical step is completed properly.
These inclusions mean your marriage is not just a beautiful ceremony but a legally valid union recognised both in Cyprus and internationally.
Professional Photography
Every package includes professional photography from award-winning Lee Squirrell Photography. The coverage level varies by package, but every couple receives beautiful, professionally captured memories.
Intimate Beginnings: Up to 3 hours coverage providing approximately 200 digital images. Perfect for intimate ceremonies and receptions, capturing all essential moments.
Romantic Retreat & Ultimate Dream: Full day coverage up to 10 hours, delivering approximately 500 digital images. This extended coverage captures everything from getting-ready preparations through final celebrations.
What's Included: All images are professionally edited and delivered digitally in high resolution. You receive full rights to your photographs for printing, sharing, and treasuring forever. No surprise charges for "extras" or basic editing—what you see is what you get.
Videography: The Ultimate Dream Package additionally includes full day video coverage (up to 8 hours) with complete wedding film and highlights reel, creating cinematic memories that bring your celebration to life again and again.
Exceptional Catering & Bar Service
Outstanding food and seamless service define memorable celebrations. Every package includes comprehensive catering with everything needed for exceptional dining experiences.
Menu Options: BBQ menus for all packages, with Romantic Retreat and Ultimate Dream additionally including canapés for cocktail reception. Menus feature fresh, locally-sourced ingredients prepared by skilled chefs and served by professional staff.
Complete Table Service: All packages include white crockery, silver cutlery, wine glasses, water glasses, white napkins, and experienced serving staff. You're not just receiving food—you're getting complete dining service that allows guests to relax and enjoy without self-service buffet lines.
Dinner Tables & Linens: All necessary dining tables, chairs, tablecloths, and linens are included for your specified guest count. If your chosen villa has suitable tables and chairs, we use those; if additional furniture is needed, we provide it (additional furniture beyond basic requirements may incur extra costs—we discuss this transparently when you select your villa).
Cocktail Tables: Romantic Retreat includes 2 tall round cocktail tables; Ultimate Dream includes 4. These create elegant mingling spaces during cocktail reception, encouraging conversation and movement.
Beautiful Wedding Florals
Fresh flowers add natural beauty and create the romantic atmosphere that defines weddings. Every package includes essential floral elements:
Bridal Bouquet: One stunning bridal bouquet designed to complement your chosen aesthetic, created with fresh, beautiful blooms that photograph gorgeously and last throughout your celebration.
Buttonholes: 2 buttonholes in Intimate Beginnings, 4 in Romantic Retreat and Ultimate Dream, typically for the groom, best man, and fathers.
Bridesmaid Bouquets: Ultimate Dream Package includes 2 bridesmaid bouquets, ensuring your entire bridal party carries beautiful fresh flowers.
Additional floral elements—ceremony installations, centrepieces, additional bouquets—can be added to any package based on your vision and budget.
Bridal Hair & Makeup
Looking and feeling your absolute best requires professional expertise, which is why every package includes bridal beauty services:
Intimate Beginnings & Romantic Retreat: Complete bridal hair styling and makeup application by experienced stylists who understand Cyprus climate and ensure you look perfect from first photos through final dance.
Ultimate Dream: Bridal hair and makeup PLUS services for two bridesmaids, ensuring your entire bridal party looks cohesive and camera-ready.
These services occur at your villa, creating a relaxed getting-ready atmosphere without rushing to salon appointments.

Your wedding cake represents both tradition and culinary delight. Every package includes a beautifully designed, delicious wedding cake:
Intimate Beginnings: 1-tier cake serving 20 guests
Romantic Retreat: 2-tier cake serving 30 guests
Ultimate Dream: 3-tier cake serving 40 guests
Cakes are custom-designed to complement your wedding aesthetic, with flavour options discussed during planning. These aren't simple grocery cakes—they're proper wedding confections that taste as wonderful as they photograph.
Entertainment & Music
The right entertainment transforms receptions from dinners into celebrations. Every package includes professional DJ services:
Intimate Beginnings & Romantic Retreat: Professional DJ for up to 5 hours, providing ceremony music, cocktail background music, dinner ambiance, and evening dance music.
Ultimate Dream: Extended DJ coverage for up to 7 hours, PLUS 1 hour of live saxophone performance adding sophisticated live music during cocktail reception or dinner.
Additionally, Ultimate Dream includes an ice cream trike and garden games, creating interactive entertainment that delights guests of all ages.
Spectacular Fireworks
The Ultimate Dream Package includes floor fireworks (subject to villa choice and permissions), creating a magical climax to your celebration as sparks and lights illuminate your first dance or evening festivities.
Complete Decoration & Styling
Beautiful décor transforms venues from empty spaces into wedding wonderlands. Every package includes standard décor packages scaled to your guest count:
What's Included: Complete ceremony styling including decorated arch and ceremony table, reception décor creating cohesive aesthetic throughout your celebration, and attention to detail that makes spaces feel special and personalised.
White Chiavari Chairs: Elegant white Chiavari chairs for ceremony (20 chairs for Intimate Beginnings, 30 for Romantic Retreat, 40 for Ultimate Dream) which are then relocated to dining area, maximising furniture use whilst maintaining elegant presentation throughout.
Understanding Package Pricing
Our transparent pricing structure ensures you understand exactly what you're investing and what you're receiving in return.
What Packages Cover
Package prices include all services listed above—planning, legal requirements, photography, catering, florals, beauty services, cake, entertainment, décor, and complete coordination. These aren't base prices requiring dozens of add-ons; they're comprehensive packages providing complete weddings.
What's Not Included
Transparency means clarity about both what IS and ISN'T included:
Villa Rental: You select and book your wedding villa separately. This allows you to choose accommodation matching your specific needs, budget, and preferences without being forced into predetermined options.
Additional Furniture: If your chosen villa has adequate tables and chairs, these are used at no extra cost. If you need furniture beyond what the villa provides or what's included in your package, additional rental fees apply—we discuss this transparently during villa selection.
Location Surcharges: Package pricing is based on Paphos town area weddings. Celebrations in more distant locations (Polis, Argaka, etc.) may incur small surcharges covering additional supplier travel time and fuel costs. We communicate these potential costs upfront during planning.
Guest Count Increases: Package prices are based on specified guest counts (20, 30, 40). Additional guests beyond package specifications require proportional cost adjustments for catering, furniture, and services—we provide clear per-person pricing for any increases.
Customisation & Add-Ons
Whilst packages are comprehensive, many couples add extra services to personalise their celebrations:
Popular Additions: Additional photography hours, upgraded floral designs, fireworks displays, live musicians, extended entertainment, marquee rental for weather protection, upgraded catering options, additional beauty services, transportation services, and upgraded cake designs.
All additions are priced transparently, allowing you to enhance your package in ways that matter most to you whilst staying within budget parameters.
The Value Proposition: What You're Really Getting
Understanding value requires looking beyond simple price tags to comprehensive benefits delivered.
Professional Expertise
You're not just purchasing services—you're gaining access to years of Cyprus wedding expertise. Our team has coordinated hundreds of celebrations, understands what works (and what doesn't), knows how to prevent problems before they occur, and brings accumulated wisdom to every aspect of your planning.
Quality Assurance
Every service provider in your package works directly for The Villa Group or is a trusted, vetted partner we've worked with extensively. This means consistent quality standards across all services—your photographer, caterer, florist, and stylists all deliver the excellence we demand because they work for us, not as random vendors you've cobbled together.
Seamless Coordination
Individual services might cost less if sourced separately, but coordination value is immeasurable. Our in-house team works together daily, understands each other's processes, communicates effortlessly, and creates cohesive weddings rather than collections of disconnected services. This integration eliminates the stress of coordinating multiple independent vendors across international time zones.
Peace of Mind
Comprehensive packages mean you're not discovering hidden costs monthly or wondering what else you'll need to purchase. The price we agree upon is the price you pay (excluding transparent additions you choose). This certainty allows confident budgeting and removes the anxiety of mounting, unexpected expenses.
Cyprus Specialisation
Everything in our packages is optimised specifically for Cyprus villa weddings—not generic wedding services adapted awkwardly to island celebrations. Flowers selected for heat tolerance, timing adjusted for Mediterranean light, catering designed for outdoor venues, beauty services accounting for humidity—every detail reflects deep Cyprus expertise.
Comparing Packages: Which Suits You?
Selecting the right package involves understanding not just what's included but what each package is designed to deliver.
Intimate Beginnings: Essential Elegance
Best For: Couples prioritising intimate celebration over elaborate production, 20-40 guests, budget-conscious planning without compromising quality, elopement-style weddings with closest family only, and couples who value meaningful moments over extensive documentation.
Key Characteristics: Complete but streamlined, focusing resources on essentials rather than extras. Shorter photography coverage captures key moments without all-day documentation. Simplified florals, entertainment, and décor create beautiful weddings without elaborate productions.
Perfect Scenario: You're inviting only your absolute nearest and dearest—parents, siblings, closest friends. You want a beautiful, well-executed celebration but don't need 10 hours of photography, extensive florals, or elaborate entertainment. You value quality over quantity in every aspect.
Romantic Retreat: Comprehensive Celebration
Best For: Most couples seeking complete wedding experiences, 30-70 guests, balance between extensive services and value, extended family and friend groups, and those wanting comprehensive photography documentation.
Key Characteristics: Full-day photography coverage, canapés adding sophistication to cocktail reception, complete service without significant compromises. This package provides everything most couples envision when imagining their dream wedding.
Perfect Scenario: You're having a proper wedding with extended family, friend groups, and meaningful guest list requiring real celebration space and time. You want comprehensive photography capturing your entire day, quality catering with both cocktail reception and dinner, and professional entertainment throughout. You seek completeness without requiring absolute luxury in every detail.
Ultimate Dream: Premium Everything
Best For: Couples wanting the absolute best without compromise, 40-100 guests, those who can invest more for premium experiences, celebrations where every detail matters, and couples desiring videography alongside photography.
Key Characteristics: Extended entertainment (7 hours DJ plus live saxophone), bridesmaid beauty services, larger floral elements, fireworks, ice cream trike and garden games creating interactive entertainment, and cinematic videography preserving memories in motion.
Perfect Scenario: You're creating a significant celebration with substantial guest list. You want premium touches throughout—live music, spectacular fireworks, comprehensive video documentation, extended entertainment, and luxury that's evident in every detail. You're not compromising on any aspect of your vision.

The Villa Component: Completing Your Wedding
Whilst packages cover wedding services, your villa selection significantly impacts your overall celebration and budget.
Choosing Your Villa
Browse our curated collection of wedding-suitable villas to find your perfect venue. Each villa listing provides comprehensive information about capacity, amenities, location, pricing, and suitability for different celebration styles.
Villa Costs Vary By: Size and guest accommodation capacity, location (beachfront, countryside, village), amenities (infinity pools, sea views, dedicated ceremony spaces), season and demand, and luxury level and facilities provided.
Typical Villa Rental: Wedding villas typically range from €2,000-7,000 weekly depending on size, season, and luxury level. This separate pricing allows you to allocate your budget according to your priorities—perhaps choosing a more modest villa to invest more in photography and entertainment, or selecting spectacular accommodation whilst keeping wedding services streamlined.
Villa Selection Guidance
Our wedding planning team assists with villa selection, recommending options that suit your guest count, aesthetic preferences, and budget. We understand which villas photograph beautifully, which provide ideal ceremony spaces, and which logistically support different celebration styles. This guidance ensures your villa choice enhances rather than complicates your wedding vision.
Hidden Value: What You Don't See
Beyond listed services, packages include tremendous value in elements you mightn't initially consider:
Expertise & Problem Prevention
Our experience prevents problems before they occur. We know which flowers wilt in Cyprus heat, how Mediterranean light affects photography timing, what decoration styles suit different villas, and countless other details that can make or break celebrations. This knowledge is built into every package.
Vendor Relationships
Our established relationships with Cyprus's best service providers mean priority scheduling, quality assurance, and seamless coordination impossible to replicate when hiring strangers remotely.
Day-of Troubleshooting
Wedding days inevitably involve unexpected situations—weather changes, timing adjustments, last-minute requests. Our team handles these challenges professionally without involving you, ensuring your complete peace of mind and presence.
Post-Wedding Support
Package prices include post-wedding coordination—managing cleanup, coordinating photo/video delivery, handling final administrative details, and remaining available for questions even after your celebration concludes.
Making Your Investment Decision
Understanding what's included allows informed decision-making about which package delivers the best value for your specific situation.
Budget Considerations
Remember that total wedding investment includes both package services AND villa rental. Allocate your budget thoughtfully between these components based on what matters most—some couples prioritise spectacular venues over extensive services, whilst others prefer investing in comprehensive wedding coverage at more modest villas.
Guest Count Reality
Be realistic about expected attendance. Package pricing is based on specified counts, with proportional increases for additional guests. Better to start with the right-sized package than continuously add guests to a too-small package.
Service Priorities
Consider what actually matters to you. If you don't care about videography, Romantic Retreat provides everything else Ultimate Dream offers except video coverage and a few extras. If you envision intimate celebration, Intimate Beginnings delivers beautiful weddings without paying for services you don't want.
Long-term Value
Photography and video become increasingly valuable over time—these are the tangible memories you'll treasure decades hence. If budget requires choices, investing in comprehensive photo/video coverage often provides greater long-term satisfaction than elaborate decorations enjoyed only once.
Transparency & Trust
Our detailed explanation of what's included reflects our fundamental commitment to transparency and trust.
We never want couples discovering hidden costs or feeling deceived about what they're receiving. Every element listed in packages is genuinely included—no asterisks, no fine print qualifying statements into meaninglessness, no surprise charges appearing later.
When additional costs might arise (location surcharges, extra furniture needs, guest count increases), we communicate these possibilities upfront and provide clear pricing before you commit. This honesty builds the trust essential for successful wedding planning partnerships.
