Our Story

WedDay marks the next chapter in our innovative journey: a destination wedding marketplace and Software as a Service (SaaS) platform designed to connect venue booking, wedding services and planning in one digital experience.

Inspired by Founder & CEO Maria Evripides’s vision, WedDay draws on the destination wedding expertise, practical experience and long-standing industry relationships developed through BookYourWeddingDay.com. Together with our experienced team and specialist collaborators, we are bringing that knowledge into a new platform that gives couples a simpler planning journey and wedding professionals the tools to manage availability, bookings and customer relationships.

Since launching in 2017, BookYourWeddingDay.com has connected couples and wedding professionals with hotels, venues and local authorities across established wedding destinations. Its pioneering approach to real-time wedding date availability and instant confirmation helped simplify the first step of planning a wedding abroad.
