A wedding team with a chef's heart

Your wedding in Greece should feel as good as it looks. Food that brings everyone together, a setting that reflects your style, and a team taking care of the details while you enjoy the celebration.

Founded and led by Chef Alex Samoilis, OPUS Events grew from professional catering into planning and delivering complete weddings. From intimate villa weddings to larger destination celebrations, the services are shaped around what matters to each couple.

The kitchen remains at the heart of the approach: thoughtful preparation, attention to detail and the pleasure of making people feel looked after. That same care carries through the planning, the setting and the service.

Review

We recently collaborated for our June 2026 wedding with Alex and his team and we couldn't have been happier we chose them as our caterer! From the very beginning of our conversations they were always willing to listen to our dream menu and create a bespoke and super tasty half Italian and half Greek menu. Alex went above and beyond when he accepted the challenge to cook for the first time a regional Italian delicacy (Olive Ascolane) that was even better than the real thing! They were always very fast to respond, very open to menu customizations and very flexible with customizing the whole experience. Before reaching out to Alex we tried other local caterers and we can assure you Alex is on another level. Everyone at the wedding (both Italians and Greeks) raved about the cooking that was at fine dining restaurant level, they even went for seconds! With Alex you will feel seen, heard and fed! Thank you so much for being one of our favorite wedding vendors and going above and beyond for us! Your team delivered our dream menu and food experience!

Alex and his team prepared and served the most exquisite dinner for 8. The roasted lamb and everything that came with it was cooked to perfection. The team handled everything, were as kind as can be and made one of our most memorable evenings on Corfu. I highly recommend!!!

We had a small wedding reception. The communication is excellent, Nikoleta and Giorgos offered immaculate service. The food itself was amazing, every single item was delicious, even reheated. For quantity - more than enough for everyone. It made our celebration special and removed a lot of stress. Thank you again!

Their food was absolutely incredible. It was at a wedding and there was a bunch of people to serve, but they absolutely smashed it out the park. It felt like I was eating at a five star Michelin restaurant. 10 out of 10 recommend

Opus catering went above and beyond to prepare a multi-course dinner for our 30th Anniversary dinner on Corfu that exceeded expectations. Alex and his staff were exceptional.
