Hi ladies, I got married at the Kassandria Town Hall in May 2008. I will be happy to send some pictures. If you would like some please email me at nikki4@nikki4.karoo.co.uk Jade - will send some over to you now. Nicolaby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 14 years ago
Not a problem... anything to help. We had a car as part of our wedding package but we had to hire a coach to take all of our guests to and from the town hall, this was really expensive, about £200 so it might be worthwhile asking about for someone who can do this a bit cheaper for you. When I looked at the price list for the little extras I nearly died... fortunately I had my friend do my haiby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 15 years ago
Hi Janet, We've already had our wedding, we got married at the same place in May 2008. It was perfect as I said, the day was everything we hoped for. We stayed at the Sani Beach Club. It is exciting... enjoy the planning and preparation, I got a bit too caught up in the whole thing and forgot to enjoy myself! Andrulla is the same person who took care of all our docs as well, she's great. Anytby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 15 years ago
Hi Janet, I'm not sure of the distance between the two but you could contact Anna Wohlfart who was our wedding co-ordintor based in Halkidiki, her email addy is awohlfart@saniresort.gr she may be able to help you. When is your big day? Have you got all your documents sorted? I haveby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi everyone, Good news... we got our docs back from Androulla today!!!!! Thankfully everything seems to be in order so we just have to send copies to the weddings department at Thomas Cook and then we can finally relax. Well, where paperwork is concerned anyway!! Just in the middle of sorting all the finer details for our party when we get back and it's all going well. I have my second dby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Sharon, That's fantastic news! I bet you're dead excited?! We picked up our certs of no impediment on Wednesday and posted everything off to Androulla the same day, should hopefully have them back with the next couple of weeks which will be huge weight lifted. Have started looking forward to it all now and just 6 weeks as yesterday until we fly and 7 weeks today until our big day! Noby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Could anyone let me have the contact details/website address for Nic please? Thanks! Nicola :-)by nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi all, Thanks a lot for your words of advice. I have today spoken to Mitch at Androulla's office and I have been advised that Thomas Cook require our passports to be certified and legalised so we are going to have to get them re-done. The good news is that they have recommended a local solicitor to me who already has their signature registered at the FCO. I am going to call them tomorrow tby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Thank you! I feel a lot better now then I did an hour ago. I briefly spoke to Androulla this afternoon and she said that she is able to recommend a solicitor to me. Fingers crossed because none of the other partners at the solicitor we used are registered to certify passports. Anyway... We fly out on the 8th May. Isn't it the 9th that you get married?

Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Mandy, I have just spent the last 45 minutes in tears... it's doing my head in completely! I'm going to ring Androulla in a little while for her to advise me which solicitor I can use (hopefully someone local) and arrange to get the passports certified again. My wonderful fiance has given me a big cuddle and told me not to worry and that everthing will work out ok in the end. I'm gby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi all, I am having a complete nightmare with all the docs for our forthcoming wedding at Kassandria Town Hall, Halkidiki, Greece on 16th May. I have today been to give notice at the register office but I didn't know (until today) that our Certs of No Impedement cannot be collected for another 16 days!! This throws everything out as I had evey intention of getting all of my docs sent to Andby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Sharon, We received a letter a few days ago from our travel agent advising us that we no longer need to get our passports translated but it did say that they should be certified by a solicitor. I would make doublly sure with your own travel agent if I were you. Are you using Androulla to do your translations? I'm using her and she's taking care of everything for me, even taking the docs toby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
By the way ladies.... I am also led to believe that Passports are no longer a requirement as part of the legal docs needed to marry in Halkidiki. I am in the process of getting this checked out so will let you all know as soon as I find out! Nicola Xby nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Sharon, I am also getting married at Kassandria on the 16th May 2008. We are staying at the Sani Resort which I've heard is beautiful. If you would like to see some pics of the Town Hall you can either access the 'User's Photo Albums' at the top of the page and search for kassandria town hall, alternatively I will be happy to email you some across if you would prefer?

Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Linz, Yes I'm sure it will, if you need any tips or advice the girls on here are lovely and helpful, I'll also help out where I can but I too am quite new to all of this! One thing I have been told a couple of times is that weddings take place on a Friday and bear in mind the 8 days you have to be there prior to your wedding, that might give you a better indication of your wedding day.by nix692 - Halkidiki
Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Linz, Check out the User's Photo Albums at the tom of the page, Nic has taken some pictures for us to look at. My partner and I are getting married at the kassandra town hall and although we have requested to get married on the 16th May 2008 we have also been told that it's not definite until it's confirmed to us upon arrival, I think this is the case for most of us.

Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Fine by me! 5 weeks OMG! I hope it doesn't take that long for ours to come thru! We've booked with Thomas Cook. Yeh I'm wondering what we should do with regards to a recpetion, we are hoping to get married at about 2pm ish so then go on somewhere or back to the hotel to have some kind of buffet and a small party. If we don't get a big number of people coming we'll consider having a sit downby nix692 - Halkidiki

Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Mandy, Thanks for that, I really appreciate it! I didn't realise there was going to be so much to do until we actually sat down and booked it. Still, we can't wait!! Yeah I think I'll get @#$%& with all the paperwork/documentation as soon as our pack arrives., better safe than sorry eh?! Have you any thoughts on who to use for your Greek translations?
