In Gremi

Kakheti is Georgia’s renowned wine-growing region, celebrated for its breathtaking nature, mild climate, and ancient history. One of its most famous and popular historical landmarks is the 16th-century Gremi Fortress. In the past, this site served as the capital of the Kakhetian Kingdom and was a major political, cultural, and trade center along the Silk Road. The unique Georgian architecture is truly impressive. The complex has preserved the walls and towers of the citadel, while the Church of the Archangels Michael and Gabriel features remarkable examples of ancient frescoes and intricate stone carvings.
Violet Wedding Agency has an exceptional offer for your couple. We will organize your wedding at In Gremi Hotel, located within walking distance of the architectural complex. An intimate celebration with a romantic photo session against the backdrop of the Caucasus Mountains, lush vineyards, and the ancient fortress will create unforgettable emotions and lasting memories for you and your guests.
