Meet the Team – Exclusive Yacht Weddings

Our Crew & Wedding Planning Team

Andreas Masouras

Andreas from Pano Zodia ( the occupied side of Cyprus) is the Captain who steers the ship (so to speak) he is responsible for the running of the yachts , crew and staff. Andreas has one son Michalis who is also a Captain and has a degree in shipping management.

Andreas was the founder of the company with just a small boat that only held 10 persons, this was used for charter and was very successful. This was then superseded by a bigger yacht, tourists were coming from all over the island to go on our daily cruises.

Slowly, we added more and more to our fleet, and now we are proud of our team of eleven yachts, which cover the entire island.

Captain Andreas also performs Blessings and Renewal of Vows with Manager Sharron, on yachts and beaches. Always dressed for the occasion and providing the most beautiful meaningful and truly romantic blessings. Andreas, although semi-retired as Captain, is still known to take the yachts out on special occasions. He spends most of his time now running the companies!

George Masouras

George from Pano Zodia and the brother of Andreas is the man that gets our name out there, promoting and marketing every where he can and is responsible for keeping the wheel turning at the Weddings office here in Paphos.

George is also a Captain and controls the maintenance schedules in full tacked. He is married to Sharron who is the founder of Exclusive Yacht Weddings. They have three children Kirsti, Kayley and Tereza, so George never escapes from the girls. The latter looks like she will be running the Weddings in the not too distant future.

George will always be your front man at all the Wedding shows across UK and Scotland, and has been awarded the "Host with the Most" Once you have met him you know that your wedding is in safe hands! Wedding shows always he has a great supply of Chocolates and Prosecco!!

George also now is the Transport Director, keeping a close eye on all our transport needs.

One true gentleman!

Helen Watts

I am originally from Basingstoke, Hampshire in the South of England but always enjoyed travelling and dreamed of one day living abroad! My Mum and Husband moved to Cyprus in 2000 and quickly realised that there was huge potential for weddings here. We formed our own Wedding company in late 2002 while I was still based in the UK dealing with the enquiries and my Mum was here doing the weddings. I had my first Son, Callum in March 2004 and in June 2004 we came over to Cyprus to buy a house and then moved in October 2004. Our wedding business went from strength to strength and as we were one of only a handful of Independent wedding planners on the Island we quickly built up a very good reputation and became extremely busy and also worked closely with Exclusive Yacht Weddings and Sharron for many years. I had my second Son, Lewis in December 2007 here in Cyprus. In early 2013, we sold the business and I came to work for Sharron as a wedding specialist and over the years I have worked in many different roles and departments at Exclusive Yacht Weddings. I have always been passionate about weddings and still love seeing the couples dream day come to reality and knowing that I have helped to create that! I am obsessed with attention to detail and all the ‘extra touches’ that help to personalise and complete the wedding day for the Bride & Groom

Maria Hayes

I got married on the Ocean Flyer in June 2016 and was blown away with the service that Exclusive Yacht Weddings provided. Being from an events background, I knew the amount of organisation that goes into planning and Sharron and the team were exceptional. I was delighted to be asked to join EYW at a Wedding Fair in the South West and have covered the area ever since. I am based in Bristol and love being able to pass on my hints and tips to future couples, sharing with them my experience of what was for us a perfect, intimate Cypriot dream wedding. I look forward to helping future EYW couples plan their special day.
