A real planner's view of a Mykonos destination wedding — the venue lock-in, the supplier shortlist that's smaller than couples assume, the permit timeline, and the budget lines that almost always blow past their first estimate.

Our take

Book the celebrant 12+ months out and the photographer before the venue — Mykonos has fewer English-speaking celebrants than expected, and good photographers are solid-booked by January for the following summer.
