Orthodox Wedding
It is possible any day of the week except for Wednesdays and Fridays, in all our churches (we have 237 on Sifnos), so without a doubt we will find the one you will love!
In order to have an orthodox wedding we need at least one of you to be an Orthodox Christian and the other one a Christian, baptized in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
This kind of wedding requires carefully prepared paperwork and we will be happy to make the load of papers seem... friendlier! If you follow the unflexible procedure and the registration part with Church and Greek State Authorities, the wedding is official, globally recognized and valid.
Catholic Wedding
A catholic wedding is only possible in a few Cycladic islands because of Catholic Church restrictions. In Sifnos, where there is only one active catholic church, a catholic wedding is possible only if you own property on the island and preferably if you bring your own priest!
Jewish Wedding
It is possible between Jewish, it is official and valid, held by the Rabbis. It can be at any place but a church and the paperwork is taken care by the Jewish Authorities.
Baptisms
Only orthodox baptisms are possible in Sifnos. In order to have one we need at least one of the parents to be an Orthodox, the couple has to be married and the godfather/godmother needs to be an Orthodox too. Baptisms can be held only in churches and the paperwork needed is easy to deal with. In case of siblings we can have one ceremony for more than one child.
