    The best in the business

    When we decided to get married in Greece, we knew we would need a wedding planner to be able to make our vision a reality. Having worked for years in luxury fashion event planning, we were quite knowledgeable and particular in what we wanted and we had a clear vision and aesthetic.

    We interviewed a few wedding planners but Vana stood out from our very first call. She was extremely friendly, highly organised and a fantastic communicator. We worked with Vana for almost two years, and she made the whole process fun and one of the best experiences of our lives. No request is too difficult for Vana and her team, no detail is missed and there is nothing they cannot pull off. They introduced us to some fantastic vendors, they always had a few options at different price points for us to choose from, and were never pushy in any direction. When we would share lists of photographers, make up artists etc. that they normally don't work with, they would research all them and give us their feedback. They would then pick up the conversation to sort out details.

    Vana, and her sister Sofia who works with her, are extremely organised - they love a spreadsheet, which we aboslutely adored as it helped keeping us on track. They gave us honest feedback on all the elements of the wedding - advising on what was and was not possible with our budget. If we were unsure or unhappy with any elements, they worked hard to find solutions, and always succeeded.

    On the day of the wedding, they were super organised across all the different elements. We didn't have to worry for a single thing and everything we were asking for on the day, was done within 5 minutes.

    Most importantly, Vana and Sofia are fantastic people - kind hearted, funny and knowledgeable professionals. We absolutely feel that we made two friends for life out of this process, and for this, we could not be happier.

    Wow - We couldn't recommend anyone better

    When we were booking our Greek wedding I was apprehensive. My husband is Greek and I'm English and I've dabbled in some wedding planning years ago so am fairly particular, but we knew we needed someone to help us pull off the Athens Riviera wedding dream. Vana and her team were just incredible. We viewed White Ribbon instagram and fell in love but more so when we had our first call. Throughout the whole process no detail was too small or request too big. (Even throwing in a pre party 3 weeks before!) What I loved most was there was always options, and not just 2! I'd have 8 photographers, or 6 makeup artists and if I'd found someone else, Vana would look into them too. She kept us on track for timelines and always felt like she was on our team. Vana even took a stunning shot of us walking up to greet out guests so we had a memory to share for anyone that couldn't make it. Don't wait - book asap!

    Seamless Coordination of our wedding in Paros

    We chose White Ribbon because it was the only company, from a large number of planers we spoke to, that understood what little time we had available to plan our wedding, given our very busy work schedules.

    Although Vana was very thorough and detailed, she made the process seamless and fun. The serenity we felt while planning the wedding was priceless. It was the perfect combination of professionalism and personal support that we felt while working with her.

    She has an eye for design and put in the effort to create truly unique and intimate wedding for us that was different from what we kept seeing on Pinterest.

    Thank you so much for creating a wonderful wedding for us!
    Lea and Yannis

    The best choice for our wedding!

    White Ribbon Boutique Events was the best choice we made when starting to plan our wedding abroad!
    Vana and her team was there for us every step of the process.
    Throughout the planning of our wedding, she guided thoroughly, was very responsive to all our questions and demands and planned everything in detailed, something that we very much appreciated.
    Apart from wedding planning she was very helpful with our guests accommodation and travel tips, and since we were having a destination wedding this was a huge bonus for us.
    Vana knows multiple wedding vendors, across all levels, so we had a very wide variety to choose from. Even in cases where our budget was limited she found a way to get us what we wanted while staying within our budget.

    We are so grateful for all the help and advice she offered us in the months leading up to our wedding. She created a dream day that our guests are still taking about.

    Wedding in Tinos

    We worked with Vana to pull together our wedding in Tinos - September 2022. The day was so beautiful and full of memories we'll never forget. The team were very professional on the day, they all looked wonderful in similar style clothing which blended so nicely with the rest of the aesthetics and the event flowed with no issues. Thank you to everyone for an incredible day to remember (many of our guests still talk about it)!

    Wedding Perfect in the age of COVID

    Where do I event start? Vana is such an incredible wedding planner. From our initial meeting we knew she was the wedding planner to choose.

    We originally started working with her in 2019 to plan our wedding in Greece but due to Covid we were finally able to celebrate in September 2022.

    Although the pandemic occurred, and the situation was unknow to everyone, she made us feel safe, she was patient with us through our 2 year postponements and negotiated on our behalf to keep our bookings without any extra charges!



    We planned 3 events with her and hosted close to 80 people from all around the world including family and friends. It made a real impression to us that she handled each event with the same focus as she did with our wedding day.

    Her taste in design and style was excellent, something which we fell in love when seeing her portfolio. What really stood out to us was that, unlike many planners, she makes sure that her décor proposal ties in harmoniously with the venue.



    Lastly I have to praise her on even remembering details that we discussed in our initial meeting - 3 years before the actual event.

    My husband and I were so very happy working with Vana and would highly recommend her to anyone considering a destination wedding in Greece.

    Destination Wedding

    Over the approx. 18 months preparation time, Vana and her team were a pure delight. We fully trusted her vision & experience and truly enjoyed our wedding preparation so much.
    Esepcially her local knowledge and big network of vendors, her great communication skills with the regular written updates by email and her incredible sense of design/decoration made the whole planning process enjoyable and not stressful at all. We always felt heard, supported and really being taken care of.
    Especially on the wedding day itself, all guests, maid/men of honor, family members and we as the couple could fully enjoy the moment, knowing that Vana and her team are taking care of everything.
    6 out of 5 stars: We cannot recommend and thank Vana and her team enough!

    Flawless experience

    We couldn’t have made it without you!

    Vana is the absolute BEST wedding planner for couples seeking a bespoke wedding in Greece!
    It is impossible to explain how she brought our dream day to reality, given that our home was thousands of miles away.
    From the start, Vana helped us locate a great venue in Paros that would accommodate all of our guests. She then helped us bring our vision to life without compromising our budget, by working with local florists, caterers, dj, bars, etc.
    When it came time for the ‘big day’ Vana and her team were all there from start to finish in a seamless way. She made sure everything ran smoothly from the morning, getting ready photos all the way through the party. It truly would not have been the perfect day without all of her help!

    Extraordinary Wedding Weekend

    We contacted Vana after reviewing her website, and within minutes of talking to her over our first video call, we knew she would be a great fit for us.
    We were locked in on a date and only had 6 months to work with. In that short amount of time, Vana put together an extraordinary wedding weekend!

    She quickly understood our vision and the kind of wedding and decor we wanted. She also was able to take our vision and help us imagine components we would have never thought of on our own.

    The biggest reward was the praise we received from our guests. Many of them telling us our wedding was literally the best wedding they had ever attended in their entire lives. This proved to be the best choice we could have ever made.

    Pivotal in creating our dream wedding

    We set up Skype calls with several wedding planners to help plan our wedding in Greece and we knew Vana was our perfect match right away. She had already impressed us with her exquisite taste levels on her social media of previous weddings she had planned, but her instant warmth and friendliness helped create an instant bond. Having a career in events, I came in with very high expectations around every detail and Vana made the experience incredibly seamless and pleasurable. She and her team were a total joy to work with. Most events always seem to have a few last minute hiccups, and if there were at our wedding, we didn't know. Vana kept everything stress free and easy. Which says a lot when we chose to get married on the beach in a small island with very little infrastructure! She made the impossible possible and we can't recommend her enough to any other couples thinking of getting married in Greece. It is worth noting we had three events when considering the price we spent (a welcome event, wedding day and pool party).

    Outstanding

    We planned our Antiparos wedding with Vana at White Ribbon events and were very impressed with her professionalism, flexibility, and eye for detail.

    Our wedding was cancelled/rescheduled multiple times throughout 2020 and 2021 but throughout the process Vana provided a reliable, optimisitc and professional support to keep our dream alive. We really cannot thank her enough for making it all happen.

    She is transparent, great at communicating, and has an incredible eye for detail. We were really impressed with how she brought all the vendors together and executed our big day.

    Would highly recommend!

    Thank you!

    The best Greece destination wedding planners!

    Where to even begin!? My husband and I were interested in a destination wedding in Greece. I stumbled across White Ribbon Boutique Events and reached out to Vana to learn more. Not only was she quick to respond, but she immediately understood my vision, our budget, and what we wanted. She recommended multiple great venues and easily found one that we loved. From that point on Vana and her team helped us plan not only the wedding but the entire wedding weekend for our guests. They were patient with our questions and solutions oriented to provide the most exceptional experience within our budget. On the day of the wedding the decor far exceeded our expectations. Vana pulled together the most incredible and beautiful look I have ever seen.

    Our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. If you are planning a destination wedding in Greece I cannot recommend Vana and White Ribbon Boutique Events enough.

    The best investment!

    The experience with White Ribbon was incredible!!

    We worked with Vana for over 14 months to plan our wedding in Greece, and this was done 100% remotely from the US on our end. She is without fail responsive, organized, creative, and professional. She knows and works with the best vendors that we could never have been able to find and source on our own.

    Our guests were absolutely blown away with our wedding and this was all thanks to Vana.

    Lastly, I need to praise her too on a personal level as she exudes warmth, patience and drive. She is hard to forget and we are happy that we now have not only a memorable wedding to remember but a good friend to visit next time we are in Greece!

    Simply Amazing!

    Planning a destination wedding for 100+ attendees in Greece can be a daunting task, especially if you live abroad. But with the help of White Ribbon, we were able to find the perfect vendors, rentals and everything in between. From start to finish, Vana and her team made the planning process totally stress-free and executed our vision flawlessly. She was our eyes and ears in Greece and felt like we had a person we could trust locally to make sure every little detail and demand we had was going to be handled.

    She is kind, responsive and very reassuring. We were 100% satisfied with our choice and we would do it all over again having Vana by our side!

    Everything was PERFECT.

    We had a wonderful experience with Vana. Without a doubt, she is a great professional, perfectionist, detail-oriented, and very patient.

    We highly recommend Vana to anyone seeking a dedicated, talented, and passionate wedding planner.
    Our specials days ( It was a 3 day weeding) wouldn't have been the same without her expertise and guidance.

    Thank you for making our wedding a dream come true!

    Forever grateful for our Destination wedding in Crete

    Vana is a very skilled project manager and wedding planner. She was professional from the first e-mail and was very efficient and prompt in her responses throughout the process. This was very important to us since we live in Australia and had never seen our wedding venue.
    She always responded to our e-mails with great detail and made us feel secure with our choices when picking each vendor. She was very structured in terms of her planning process in a way that made sense for us, prioritizing the most urgent tasks fist, while other planners we had spoken with commenced the planning in a very unorthodox and chaotic way.
    She responded patiently to all our sometimes (crazy!) requests and questions. She made us feel confident that our wishes and needs were really taken into account.
    The suppliers she recommended were top class, from the catering company, flower decorator, hairdresser to the musician, photographer and Dj.
    She followed up before, during and even after the wedding to make sure we are happy at all times.
    We are forever grateful for the perfect completion of the entire process.

    Destination Wedding in Greece

    When my husband and I first got engaged, we knew we wanted to have a wedding in Greece but felt scared about planning a wedding from 5,000 miles away and not being able to speak the local language. We spent the first few months tirelessly searching for the right planner. Every planner we spoke with was missing that warm, calm, and patient aspect that Vana possesses. From our very first Skype call with Vana, my husband and I knew she was the one. She made the year long planning process seamless and stress-free by sticking to her timeline and reassuring us that we were on the same page. The day of the wedding we were completely blown away. She made our vision come to life and exceeded all of our expectations.
    I cannot put into words how grateful we are for vana and every single person at white ribbon events. Vana has truly found her calling in wedding planning and puts her heart and full effort into every couple.

    Wedding Planning at its best!

    Vana and her team made my wedding a reality!
    Having a destination wedding can be very daunting and difficult to plan from abroad. Having Vana by my side for all 13 months of planning made the process enjoyable and memorable! It’s was the most important day of our lives and she went above and beyond to make it so special and basically everything we had envisioned!
    I cannot praise this woman enough! From the wedding details, guest hotel recommendations, bus transfers, design, flowers and coordination she was the absolute best person for the job! Thank you Vana from the bottom of our hearts!

    Amazing destination wedding in Paros, Greece

    Planning a wedding abroad is intimidating. It is a task riddled with challenges: language barriers, venue selection without visiting, choosing a caterer without ever tasting the food, and navigating the legalities of marriage licensure on foreign soil.

    What is needed in these situations is someone who is not just an expert at wedding planning, but someone who also is familiar with the location and has a willingness to help couples navigate the unexpected troubles that are often encountered when traveling abroad.

    What is needed is someone a couple can trust, someone they can lean on while traveling abroad, and put their full faith in to create an unforgettable celebration.

    Vana of White Ribbon Events is all of these things and more.

    When planning our wedding in Greece my wife and I put our full faith in Vana, allowing her to make recommendations and guide the choice of venue, food, and style of the wedding. What we got in return was something that exceeded our expectations. Vana has a way of bringing out the beauty in even the smallest details of a wedding, such that every part of it, even something as seemingly mundane as the color of the chairs, becomes its own celebration. The events she creates, when viewed as whole, are a work of art. I can not bestow enough praise on Vana’s artistic vision.

    In addition to her artistic prowess and vision, Vana is a delight to work with. She exercises an unbridled selflessness when helping couples navigate the difficulties of weddings abroad. She assisted my wife and I with translating conversations with the priest, helped us navigate around the island, gave us restaurant recommendations, and even recommended a few places to shop. She is timely, friendly, professional, and (importantly) fun. By the end of our experience with Vana she had become more than just our wedding planner, she became our friend.

    In closing, not only do I highly recommend working with Vana for your wedding, I encourage you to give her some creative freedom when planning the event. I encourage you to put your trust in her professionalism, her sense of style and her artistic vision. Vana and White Ribbon Events will craft an unforgettable experience for you as she did for my wife and I.

    Vana is an amazing wedding planner and even more incredible person to share your special day with. From New York, my husband and I decided to get married in Greece. We did a lot of research on possible venues and wedding planners. My sister found Vana’s work online. Vana’s aesthetics are impeccable. Her style is unique, authentic and timeless. Once I saw her work, I had to hire her. We hired Vana approximately 14 months before our wedding date. At this time, we had no idea where we wanted to get married. Vana provided an extensive list of venues for us to explore. After a trip to Santorini and Crete, my husband and I took a chance and decided to get married in Mykonos! The wedding planning process was seamless, easy and so much fun. Vana put us in contact with amazing people. There’s a wedding services community in Greece with professionals who are extremely talented and are the nicest people. On the day of the wedding, Vana was extraordinary. She assembled a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception while checking in on me, my husband and our families. When the ceremony began, she was right there to hold an extra bag, fix my fallen veil, and made sure all our guests were comfortable. Her execution of the planning and the actual day was unbelievable, she worked so hard up until the very end of the evening! 14 months of amazing work! I am so lucky to have found her and picked her as our wedding planner. I think the real mark of a great planner is someone who always keeps open lines of communication. Someone who has built relationships in different places of the world with vendors who are trustworthy, affordable and incredible at what they do. Vana is a testament to this and if I could do this all over again I would not change a thing.

    I found Vana and the White Ribbon team through a rigorous google search and immediately fell in love with her portfolio. She has an impeccable design aesthetic and her knack for understated elegance resonated with mine and my husband's taste. We initially didn't have a very clear vision of how we wanted our wedding day to be. We only knew for sure that we wanted it to be a destination wedding at a Greek island. Vana helped us narrow down the choices for the venues, guided us through the early budget planning phase, designed an event reflective of mine and my husband's personalities and cultures, and introduced us to the top professionals in the Greek wedding industry. She communicated with us regularly via email and kept us updated with the progress of the wedding planning and helped us stick to our timeline.

    We got the chance to meet her in person a couple of times in Athens over the course of our more-than-a-year-long planning stage and I was always looking forward to our coffee sessions, because not only was she an organized and resourceful wedding planner, she also happens to be a very sweet, wonderful person.

    On our wedding day I literally just had to get myself into a gown, go to church and enjoy the party because everything else were well taken care of by Vana and her team. My husband and I let the day unfold with zero stress... and lots of fun! Our guests are still raving about how phenomenal our Mykonos summer wedding was. It would have been definitely IMPOSSIBLE to organize an overseas "pinterest worthy" and memorable event without the help and expertise of Vana and her team.

    Vana & Team,

    Thank you for making our wedding absolutely perfect! We started our wedding planning with only 6 months before the big day. Vana was able to organize us and to keep us on track with all deadlines. Even though we live in London we were able to communicate with her via Skype and e-mail and she was able to plan out everything I had envisioned. Everything was cared for and all we had to do was to enjoy OUR day. From the church and wedding decorations, the flower arrangements, the lemonade stands at the church, to organizing the busses and entire the day, everything was perfect and seamless. Our wedding day was everything we imagined and more. Our guests were extremely pleased and were so impressed with all the details, we received so many comments that it was the most beautiful wedding they had been to. We can't thank Vana & the team enough!

    I can not give enough praise to White Ribbon Boutique Events! They were fabulous, from start to finish. With Vana’s help we were able to meet the needs & expectations of our more traditional families & the younger generation like ourselves. We have since received many compliments on what a fun & wonderful night it was for everyone.
    Some of White Ribbon’s strengths that stood out to us were their friendly and courteous attitude always with a smile. We loved Vana’s gift in design; she has a knack for understanding her clients' vision & realizing it. She is well-connected to some of the best people in the business and knows the industry inside and out, so she was able to help us put together an incredible team of vendors while respecting our budget.
    Vana and her team work magic and they take the stress out of planning for the big day. Down to the last detail, they make planning a wedding seem like a piece of cake! The little things that you don't want to have to think about, but that make your wedding day perfect, are what Vana specializes in.
    On my wedding day, I completely trusted her to take charge and run the show, so I could relax and enjoy, and she did just that. I didn't have to do anything except get in my dress and show up! White Ribbon made my husband and myself feel like we were their number one priority and for all their hard work we are so grateful.

    Vana & White Ribbon Team,
    What would we have done without you?! I can't tell you how hopeless it feels to try and plan a wedding in a place where you are unable to be present or speak the local language. I was so lucky to find you from your work featured on stylemepretty.com and from the very first phone call I knew that you were the person that could make it work for me. Your responsiveness by phone and email was always timely and professional and our first meeting in person confirmed what I already knew; you were my perfect wedding planner! Your personality and presence was kind, caring, flexible and attentive, while still being assertive enough to negotiate with businesses to get us what we wanted. You made us feel comfortable and in control of the planning while keeping the stress and anxiety to a minimum by constantly reassuring us "we will make it happen". You kept us from feeling overwhelmed by setting us deadlines throughout the process, focusing on one thing at a time rather than getting caught up in all the things that were left to do.
    I'll never forget how you were able to make my dream dessert of chocolate soufflés become a reality despite the difficulties involved in serving it to 60 people. It brought tears to my eyes when the caterers told me that you had made this happen and when I told my mother about this, she also shared tears of happiness for the work you had done.
    The wedding was all our dreams come true. You and your team's attention to detail and ability to coordinate the event was fantastic. Everything was perfect and it was a wedding that all who attended will never forget. To anyone thinking of planning a wedding with White Ribbon Boutique Events I highly recommend them and know that they will be able to make your dream become a reality. For those people who are lucky to enough to work with Vana, we are so excited to see her future projects and know she will continue to do amazing work.

    My husband and I would love to highly recommend the entire White Ribbon Events team for their patience, professionalism and dedication to love.
    White Ribbon Events was first recommended to us by the day-of events coordinator at the Costa Navarino Resort. White Ribbon was one of their preferred events planners.
    From the onset, we communicated primarily by email given our location and time zone differences. We were attempting to plan a destination wedding from Boston, Massachusetts. We corresponded primarily with Vana Efkleidou who speaks fluent English, has a law degree (wedding planning involves many contracts!) and is absolutely lovely. Vana is organized and reassuring at all times making her a pleasure to work with.
    White Ribbon Events has a beautifully unique and contemporary style. Several style boards were assembled during the planning phase that were detail oriented without being restrictive. Vana was perpetually open-minded to our feedback while suggesting excellent alternatives. Each and every proposed design was the seed of a stunningly original wedding on par with the wedding blogs (on which WRE is featured often).
    Vana and WRE were invaluable when it came to vendor recommendations, timing logistics and cultural /religious assistance. We had a unique situation being that I converted to Greek Orthodox and then we sought to have a strictly Greek Orthodox wedding . Vana assisted with all of the religious and legal paperwork in both Greece and the US that involved quite a bit of homework, document translation, foresight and communication with priests, embassies etc.
    On the BIG day White Ribbon Events were a tremendous team. They were everywhere when I needed them and efficiently negotiating behind the scenes at the same time. In fact, I’m confident that I don’t even know the full extent of their efforts but the night was flawless.
    All in all, our wedding was beautifully organized by White Ribbon Events.
