Abby & Richard — Jewish Wedding at Kyrimai Hotel, Mani
G R E E C E / Mani, Peloponnese
A Jewish Destination Wedding at Kyrimai Hotel, Mani
Abby and Richard chose the dramatic beauty of Mani in the Peloponnese for their Jewish destination wedding in Greece.
Their wedding took place at Kyrimai Hotel, a restored 19th-century manor set right on the water in Gerolimenas — a small stone-built village on the coast of the Mani peninsula — bringing together the raw beauty of southern Greece with an intimate celebration surrounded by the people closest to them. The day was planned by FYE – For Your Event, Athens-based destination wedding specialists, with photography by Elena Haralabaki, recognised as Greece's Best Wedding Photographer by Fearless Photographers for eight consecutive years.
For us, their wedding film was about capturing the atmosphere of the day as naturally as it unfolded — the emotions, the traditions, the people, the landscape and all the small moments in between.
The result is a cinematic wedding film that reflects not only Abby and Richard's relationship, but also the distinctive character of Mani and the personal, meaningful traditions of their Jewish wedding celebration.
Wedding Videography in Mani, Peloponnese
Mani is one of the most distinctive destinations in Greece for a destination wedding.
Unlike the better-known Greek island wedding destinations, Mani offers something more rugged and authentic. The landscape combines dramatic mountains, stone villages, traditional tower houses, rocky coastline and the deep blue waters of the Mediterranean.
The architecture of Mani is particularly distinctive, with historic stone tower houses forming the visual identity of many of its villages. The region's landscapes move naturally between mountains, olive groves, small coastal settlements and open sea, creating an incredible setting for cinematic wedding photography and videography.
One place that captures this particularly well is Kyrimai Hotel, a 19th-century manor restored into a boutique hotel on the water's edge in Gerolimenas — as seen in Abby and Richard's wedding above.
For couples looking for a destination wedding in Greece that feels intimate, authentic and connected to the landscape, Mani offers a completely different experience.
