In 2010, Greece was one of the least popular European countries regarding the number of K-1 visas (=the number of marriages between American men and citizens of this country).
12 years ago, only 13 Greek women got a K-1 visa, and in 2019, this number increased to 88—so in the space of 9 years, the number of Greek brides who married American men increased by almost 7 times! It’s not surprising—Greek women are incredibly beautiful, they are well-mannered and polite, fun and active, and they are very intelligent.
Here, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about how to marry a Greek woman and bring her to the US. Why is having a Greek wife a good idea, and how to impress Greek girls?

Greek wives: statistics you didn’t know about Greek women
The divorce rate in Greece is pretty low—this country had 1.8 divorces per 1,000 inhabitants in 2017, which is similar to the overall average divorce rate in the European Union. For example, the current divorce rate in the United States is 2.3 per 1,000 population, which is slightly (27.78%) higher than in Greece.
Today, Greek women tend to get married much later than a few decades ago. The average age at the first marriage for Greek brides was 27.6 years old in 2002. Eighteen years later, in 2020, it’s 30.7 years old. The average age of Greek men at first marriage is 33.8 years old, by the way—this is a pretty large age gap, and Greek women seem to be totally ok with it, so if you’re planning to find a younger partner, Greece might be a great country for your goals.
The same is about the age for first-time motherhood. Greek women tend to have children in their 30s—the average age of first-time motherhood is 31 years old in this country. The reasons are mainly economic—there is no affordable child care in Greece (especially compared to other European countries), so Greek ladies have to build a career and become financially stable before having children.
Greece has one of the lowest fertility rates in Europe. In 2022, the fertility rate in this country was only 1.271 births per woman. Such a low TFR does obviously have something to do with the economic uncertainty—the fertility rates have declined since 2010 (the year the Greek debt crisis broke out).
Sweet Greek bride
How much does it cost to buy a bride from Greece?
You don’t “buy” a Greek wife, of course. Here’s how it works: you start dating beautiful Greek women online, then you meet them in person, then you propose to that Greek girl you like most, and after that, you bring her to the United States. Every step is not 100% free—you’ll have to pay for a premium subscription on a dating site, for a trip to Greece, and a K-1 visa for your Greek bride. Let’s be more detailed.
