Limassol
Limassol
Limassol is built between two ancient city states, Curium to the west and Amathous to the east; it boasts an excellent location within easy reach of the Troodos Mountains and other major resorts and combines a wealth of historical sites with the vibrancy of a cosmopolitan city. The city has quite a reputation for weddings, arguably the most famous taking place in the 12th century when Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria of Navarre and crowned her Queen of England. History buffs can visit the historic medieval castle that played host to their wedding and now houses the medieval museum as well as Kolossi castle to the west of Limassol and the sites of the kingdoms of Amathous and Curium. The latter is home to a magnificent Greco-Roman amphitheatre still used for performances to this day.

Civil wedding ceremonies can take place in one of two town halls in the Limassol area and many hotels can now organise civil or Anglican ceremonies in their grounds.
Ayios Athanasios Town Hall
Ayios Athanasios Town Hall
The town hall of Ayios Athanasios is situated around 15 minutes from most of the hotels; it is a beautiful stone building perched up on a hill and overlooking a lovely church. The inside of the building is decorated in traditional white shade and there is seating available, it is air-conditioned and has facilities for playing your wedding music. The town hall is surrounded by arches and a small garden which are perfect for your wedding pictures.
Yermasoyia Cultural Centre
Yermasoyia Cultural Centre
Civil weddings can take place in the Yermasoyia cultural centre, a delightful building of local stone constructed in traditional style around a central courtyard. The centre has two marriage rooms capable of accommodating small or large parties and the interior courtyard complete with its own amphitheatre provides a wonderful backdrop for memorable wedding pictures.

Most hotels charge a set up fee for on-site wedding ceremonies, however if you have booked your wedding through a tour operator a basic venue may be included in your package, you may also be able to upgrade to another venue for an additional fee. Some hotels will also offer their wedding venues to non-residents upon request and subject to availability, an additional set up/ venue hire fee may apply.
