Planning a destination wedding in Greece, with its iconic blue domes, stunning sunsets, and pristine beaches, is a dream for many couples. But turning this dream into reality comes with a hefty price tag. Here’s a detailed breakdown of costs and how couples can manage it smartly using a personal loan.

Breaking Down the Costs of A Mid-Range Destination Wedding in Greece

A mid-range destination wedding in Greece for about 50 guests can cost around €39,000 (~₹40,24,449 at the prevailing exchange rate). Here’s a detailed look at what contributes to this budget:

Financing the Dream: Personal Loan Option

For Indian couples, the total cost of ₹40,24,449 can be financed through a personal loan, helping spread the expense over several years. At a 10% interest rate over 20 years, here’s what a typical loan structure would look like:
