Getting married abroad has always been a dream of ours, although we never thought it would actually become a reality. After my future husband proposed to me, the choice of country was quickly made: Greece. We feel a strong connection to the country – the people, the delicious food, and, of course, the breathtaking beaches.

After talking to various wedding planners in Crete, we eventually got in touch with Margreet Riemeijer and Henk Bekker, the wedding officiant. Because many of our guests are from Germany, the request was that the ceremony be conducted in German. This was no problem for Henk.

Both Margreet and Henk understood exactly what we had in mind and made us feel that there is always a way to make it happen. After that first conversation, we were actually already certain: this is the team!
