What couples said after our call
“The most important part of connecting with Christina was getting our bearings. She helped lay out a budget range and timing, clear steps to take, and helped us avoid getting an international planner and rather focus more on local trusted experts.”
🇦🇺 Couple planning a Rhodes wedding, Sydney, Australia
“We were a bit optimistic at the beginning on total costs. Christina helped us understand some of the hidden costs and also adapt our plan, and island!, to be within budget. Great guidance.”
🇬🇧 Couple planning a Santorini wedding, Edinburgh, UK
“I hired a planner for my own wedding who was taking commissions on the side and blocking venues from us. I built Big Fat Greek Day so couples wouldn’t get the same treatment. This consult is what I wish I’d had then. No commissions. No kickbacks. No paid recommendations. An hour, honest guidance, and a written plan you can actually use.”

- Planned my own 96-guest wedding in Crete
- Founder of bigfatgreekday.com, the most-read English Greek wedding blog
- Native Greek speaker. I call vendors in their language.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is one hour really enough to make a difference?
Yes, because we are not starting from zero. Before we meet I review your intake form and your calculator results, then prepare a tailored brief with venue and vendor angles to walk you through. The 60 minutes are for decisions, not introductions. Everything we cover, plus your shortlist and budget, lands in your Insider Dossier 72 hours later. When the hour ends, my goal is for you to have a clear vision and path forward.
What if I already have a venue?
Even better. We will use the hour to build out your vendor team, fill in your real budget, and pressure-test the parts of your plan most couples miss. Bring your contract if you have questions.
Do you take a commission from any vendor you recommend?
No. Not now, not ever. I make my living from this consultation, from the planning guides, and from running Big Fat Greek Day. Vendors do not pay me to be on a list. If I recommend someone, it is because I would send my own sister to them.
Why are you not a wedding planner?
I started the website precisely because I had a bad experience with a dishonest planner when planning my wedding. I’m here to be someone that will give you honest advice based on experience with no financial reason to push any particular vendor. That is what this is.
What if I need to reschedule or cancel?
Reschedule up to 48 hours before the call, no charge. Cancel more than 48 hours before and you get a full refund. Inside 48 hours, I have already done the prep for your call, so a cancellation is non-refundable. Attending is different. If the call itself doesn’t give you a clear way forward, tell me before I send your dossier and I’ll refund you in full.
What if the person paying isn’t on the call?
That happens a lot. You get a recording and your written dossier to walk them through afterwards, and 7 days to come back with questions.
