The perfect Paphos wedding venue is waiting to host your ceremony.

Let Under The Cyprus Sun introduce you to some of the best Paphos wedding venues available.
Civil ceremonies in Paphos are conducted in one of three Town Halls
Paphos Town Hall - an attractive building with classical facade offers great photo opportunities in the heart of the Old town. This venue offers a large chamber for indoor ceremonies and in 2008 the municipality introduced wedding services within the gardens.
This is a great location for your wedding, close to many of the popular Paphos beach front reception options, where you'll have no further venue fees to pay as it's included in the cost of the wedding license.
If Paphos Town Hall sounds like the perfect Paphos wedding venue you can book using the following contact details:
Civil Marriage Office
P.O. Box 60032, 8100 Pafos – Cyprus

Yeriskipou Town Hall - is in the traditional village of Yeriskipou (Geriskipou),North East of Paphos. The name itself comes from the Greek word "Hieroskepos", the sacred Garden of Aphrodite. What could be better than a Paphos wedding venue on the ‘home turf' of the Goddess of Love.
The ceremony takes place under a canopy on a shady patio, intimate for smaller groups but spacious enough for larger wedding parties.
This Paphos wedding venue is included in the marriage license fee unless you wish to marry after 1pm when there will be an additional charge of €145 (check at the time of booking to see if this charge is still in place)

Peyia Town Hall - slightly further out of the main resort in the traditional hill top village of Peyia (Pegeia).

Outdoor ceremonies conducted beneath a beautiful pergola and gorgeous photo opportunities throughout the gardens are the jewel in the crown of this venue.

Those of you considering a religious ceremony will be interested in the following Paphos wedding venues.
St George Church - sits close to the hotel of the same name overlooking the stunning Paphos coastline. Coupled with the breathtaking frescoes within the church interior this venue is a photographer’s delight.
Anglican and Catholic services are conducted at St Georges, with the church seats up to 25 comfortably. If you need to accommodate a larger wedding party take a look at Ayia Kyriaki (St Paul’s Pillar.
It's worth mentioning that due to its elevated position and steep steps those with mobility difficulties may find access to the church a little difficult
