Important facts about Greek wedding

Today I share some crunchy facts about Greek wedding in the article, hope everyone enjoy it. In this article I’ll describe about a Greek wedding story. Greek wedding ceremonies are held in two different parts, we call them Betrothal and the main wedding ceremony. The couples had asked by Church priest if they arrived here with their own consent or want to marry each other happily. After getting fruitful answers the priest asked them to enter in church and then ring ceremonies started in its way. Priest blesses the rings, give rings in right hand of bride and groom. In other culture wedding the ring exchanged only one time by couple but in Greek wedding culture couple exchange rings for three times to show that their relationship works for long-term. Koumbaro or Koumbara the same as the Maid of Honor or Best Man they can be either Male or Female. The priest puts his vestment over bride and groom cross hand to assure ring ceremony is concluded fruitfully.

The wedding of Paulina and Costa one of loveliest couples we have ever met in our life. We feel like we have known them for years and their families welcomed us with open arms on the day.

The couple had many journeys on their day, missing bags of money, handbags misplaced and the day before Costa even fought with a dog who managed to bite him and send him to hospital. Nevertheless the wedding went forward as planned and in full Greek tradition we had great food and lots of dancing, including the dance which is one of our favorite parts of any Greek wedding.

We had a team of three for this day as we shot both Paulina’s and Costa’s wedding event at their parents’ houses and we brought our crane to the London Royal Exchange in the evening for some aerial shots of the dancing and reception. We love this building, especially in the evening when it’s dark and illuminated. The lighting production was done by Beyond Certainty.
