Welcome

Welcome to Opus Events

OPUS Events is an international catering and events company with a strong focus on Greece, bringing together wedding planning, coordination and chef-led hospitality. From intimate villa weddings to larger destination celebrations, services are shaped around what matters to each couple.

Founded and led by Chef Alex Samoilis, OPUS Events grew from professional catering into planning and delivering complete weddings. 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.

About

Opus Events

Wedding catering takes inspiration from Greek and Mediterranean cuisine, with menus shaped around the season, the couple's preferences and their guests. The choice runs from an elegant plated dinner to generous family-style sharing, a buffet or a cocktail reception. Tastings help refine the menu before the celebration, and bar services, professional service staff and catering equipment can be arranged as part of the proposal.

Professional bar setups, experienced bartenders and a drinks menu are shaped around the celebration, from welcome drinks and cocktail hour to an evening open bar, with alcohol-free options. Through OPUS Collections, couples can hire dinnerware, glassware, cutlery, linens and table accents, or choose a complete styled table setting.
