When it comes to weddings in the south Famagusta region ( Cyprus), Sotira Atia Thekla is one of the most favorite destinations, thanks to its popular Ayia Thekla beach, which was even recommended by UK's most famous tourirst operators as "the perfect place for a beach wedding in Cyprus"!

We do our best to provide the best experience to our couples and we try to launch additional options for ceremonies on our gorgeous coastal stretch in-line with demand for weddings in the area, bringing the total options for nuptials in both Sotira and its beach to seven.

Aside from civil ceremonies in the Town Hall and the Town Hall Gardens, and our original weddings on the beach, recently, the Sirens Beach Venue was unveiled, "a sand-to-toes beach wedding you always dream about just a few steps from the pristine turquoise Ayia Thekla waters".

This particular set-up is proving to be highly popular for its romantic simplicity with a cosy arrangement of white chairs and vintage-style bureau almost at the shoreline. Already since May this year, more than 200 couples have chosen to tie knot in a seaside ceremony on its soft sands, with the most couples coming from Great Britain and Russia.

The Poseidon Venue, also incorporates the rugged rocks of the beach alongside its Mediterranean Sea backdrop; Ayia Thekla Island; "Nissaki" Ayia Thekla Beach Bar and Restaurant, which provides catering and a venue to hold wedding receptions after a beach ceremony, and Thalassines Beach Villas Hotel which is usually called "a hidden paradise".

Sotira & Ayia Thekla Weddings Deparment was the first that launched sand-to-toes beach, offering numerous options of venues and styles of weddings. The wedding deparment in Sotira in famous for its approach to the couples, creating a very friendly atmosphere, and willing to provide everything a couple needs for celebrating such an important day! A dream you can afford!
