A Wedding In Rhodes Greece

I've been talking with various wedding planners in a few destinations over the past few months to get ideas as to where we should get married and how much it will cost etc so last night me and my H2B decided we had to choose where we wanted to get married.
Our favourite places were Havana in Cuba, Florence in Italy and Rhodes in Greece.
Decision time. . . . . .
We pretty much ruled out Cuba because I really want my Grandad to be at the wedding and he's 82 now and there is no way he could fly that far, he can probably manage around 4-5hrs at the most. For a wedding abroad we still have more guests than usual, the avarage being around 25, but we have got 40 on our list, so we thought it's probably quite far and costly for some people to go.
We then ruled out Florence in Italy becasue that's where two of our best friends got married a couple of years ago so we wanted to do something different to them, so we picked Rhodes.
We had thought about France and we looked at some stunning venues but what put me off was the fact that you would need to actually get married legally back at home first.
We have decided to have our wedding in the beautiful village of Lindos, Rhodes. We went there in May last year and fell in love with the place! It's beautiful and it's got that kind of rustic feel that we like so much! We have chosen a gorgeous little chapel called St Dimitris which is located in the village just under the Acropolis. We had a look at flights and accommodation keeping our gusts in mind and there is something to suit most budgets.
The wedding is booked for September, so it's not actually that far away! At least it's booked now and I can start looking at dresses!!!!!
