Where Romance Meets the Evening Sky
When we think about weddings in Cyprus, one of the first images that comes to mind is the sun melting into the horizon, painting the sky in shades of gold and rose. There is something truly magical about saying your vows as the last rays of sunlight illuminate the sea or the mountains. Sunset weddings are not only breathtaking but also create an atmosphere of calm and intimacy that perfectly frames the beginning of a new chapter.
At Eva Event Agency, we are passionate about helping couples find the perfect venue to capture this moment. Whether you dream of a barefoot beach ceremony, a clifftop exchange of vows, or a stylish villa dinner party under the stars, Cyprus offers a wealth of sunset spots that feel almost cinematic.

Beachfront Venues: The Classic Sunset Setting
For many couples, a beach wedding in Cyprus is the ultimate dream. Imagine standing at the water’s edge as the sun sinks into the Mediterranean, the waves reflecting a warm golden light. Beach venues in Ayia Napa, Protaras, and Larnaca offer unobstructed sea views and a relaxed, natural setting. These are ideal for couples who want a casual, yet elegant, atmosphere and stunning photography.

Cliffside Locations with Panoramic Views
If you want a more dramatic backdrop, Cyprus’ rugged coastline has incredible clifftop venues where the sunset seems to stretch endlessly before you. These locations are perfect for couples looking for a striking setting that feels both private and wild. With the sound of the sea below and the wind carrying the scent of salt, your ceremony becomes a moment suspended between earth and sky.
⸻
Luxury Villas with Private Terraces
Some couples prefer a more intimate and personalised setting, which is why villas are a popular choice. A villa with a west-facing terrace allows you to enjoy the sunset in privacy, surrounded by close friends and family. It is also a wonderful setting for an al fresco dinner party, where the transition from sunset to starlight becomes part of the celebration.

Seaside Restaurants and Taverns
Cyprus has a wealth of restaurants and taverns with sunset views that can host small ceremonies or pre- and post-wedding gatherings. These venues combine the romance of the setting sun with the flavours of the island – think fresh mezze, local wine, and live music as the sky turns crimson.

Hotels with Rooftop Venues
For couples who want the convenience of a hotel but do not want to compromise on atmosphere, some hotels in Limassol and Paphos offer rooftop venues with panoramic sea views. These spaces are perfect for sunset cocktails, symbolic ceremonies, and receptions that carry on into the night.

Photographic Magic of Golden Hour
Sunset light is a photographer’s dream – soft, flattering, and full of emotion. Many couples tell us that their favourite wedding portraits were taken during this golden hour, when everything seems to glow. From candid moments with guests to romantic couple portraits, sunset photography captures the essence of the day in the most timeless way.

Timing Your Ceremony for the Perfect Sunset
One of the most important aspects of a sunset wedding is timing. We often suggest planning the ceremony so that your vows are said just before the sun dips below the horizon, leaving time for those perfect golden-hour photographs. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in the overall flow of the day.

Creating the Atmosphere
To make the most of a sunset wedding, couples often choose simple yet elegant décor – letting the natural beauty of the setting do most of the work. Lanterns, fairy lights, and candles can enhance the transition from daylight to evening, creating a soft and romantic mood for dinner and dancing that follows.

Whether you prefer the lively energy of a coastal town or the quiet charm of a secluded venue, you will find a place that feels just right for your love story.
