Kind and experienced consummate professional.

My Greek-American wife Nina and I reached out to Donna for assistance with planning a wedding on Nina's home island of Kefalonia. Donna is highly experienced and has contacts all over the island. She has great taste and is creative and flexible. Her checklists make it easy to stay organized and make sure all the steps for a proper Greek wedding are fulfilled. When our wedding in Greece did not end up happening for personal reasons, Donna was extremely gracious and flexible. When we returned to Kefalonia for our anniversary the following year, she helped plan an elaborate anniversary surprise for my wife (boat cruise, photo shoot, high class dinner) just on our wedding deposit with no additional charge.

Wedding planning is a stressful time, and Donna's greatest strength (other than her planning skills) will become clear after meeting: her incredible warmth and kindness. It's obvious to anyone who works with Donna that she plans weddings and other events because she truly loves it and takes pride in designing the perfect occasion for couples. We would recommend Donna's services to anyone looking to plan a wedding on Kefalonia. She is the best!

Glenn & Anne's Perfect Greek Wedding

I have to admit we were not sure about using a Wedding Planner BUT Donna was absolutely amazing! Donna was professional and friendly, very approachable and so knowledgeable (giving us tips and advice). She knows all the contacts personally and the day could not have gone better. It was perfect. You HAVE to choose her without a doubt.

Our dream wedding on Kefalonia

Our journey in the organization started a year in advance. We fell in love with the island and had already chosen part of the locations when we got to meet Donna. Planning a wedding is already quite a task but remotely is near to impossible unless you have Donna. No matter the problem, she always managed to propose solutions and paid attention on each and every detail. Even the organization of a sight-seeing tour the day before the wedding for the express visitors went as smoothly as anyone could wish for. The guests were amazed not only by the wedding but got also a glimpse of the beauty that is called Kefalonia.
Donna, from both our hearts, we thank you for all your help with our special wishes, for all the time and passion you put into our wedding and for making our dream come true. We are looking forward to visit you again on our next trip on the island to look back with joy on our journey together.

Wedding in Assos

Donna and the team were absolutely fantastic. Our wedding was perfect and wouldn’t have changed anything.

Everything ran smoothly and it was absolutely beautiful.

No stress, no worries and we were able to focus on each other and the special day.

Donna was an amazing wedding planner. I am a event planner in the USA. Sooo writing her a review is something I was looking forward to doing. She was AMAZING very well organized and always had a smile and the “can do “ attitude. The people that she hired to do certain things for the wedding were absolutely amazing especially the DJ that kept our guest dancing the entire night . I just wish we had another child to get married because we would definitely hire Donna to help us with a Wedding

Brilliant service throughout!

We had the best wedding experience from start to finish with Donna, even though we had postpone twice due to covid, Donna was always on the other end of the phone there to reassure us. She planned and organised us the most perfect wedding day, down to every little detail she went above and beyond. It was everything we wanted and more. Can not recommend Kefalonia Weddings enough, massive thank you again to the team ❤️.

We loved our Kefalonia Wedding

We couldn’t have pulled our wedding in Kefalonia together without Donna at Kefalonia Weddings. She found us the perfect venue we wouldn’t have otherwise known about, and had all the vendor connections we needed. It was great to have one point of contact to liaise with for all the vendors, particularly when plans needed to change. We loved our wedding day!

You could not wish for a better Wedding Planner who catered for every wish!

From the very first contact, Donna was professional, caring and re-assuring, listening to our brief and getting it spot on with her solutions and suggestions. The attention to the large and the small details of the day pulled everything together to make it absolutely perfect. Many guests said it was the best wedding they had been to. It was so re-assuring to have Donna there throughout the planning and on the day to inform us of what needed to be done and when and to ensure everything went smoothly. I cannot recommend Donna at Kefalonia Weddings highly enough.
