Re: Greek Brides??

awww wonderful!!!! We have 100 people for the actual wedding!!! It's all my fam because his is in Greece. We are thinking astoria because we want to take everyone to the place we met (CAVO) afterwards for dancing - don't worry he didn't pick me up there !!! lol

Re: Greek Brides??

lol...I'm sure whatever you decided to do will be wonderful because it will be all about the two of you. Regarding the engraving, why don't you try a jewlery store in Astoria???

Re: Greek Brides??

That's what I'm thinking. BTW Do you know if a priest will bless two rings? I want to do a diamond vera to match the e-ring and we both got the same gold band. I want to be engaged and married with the diamond band but I want him to bless the gold ring as well and I'll wear all three.

Re: Greek Brides??

I did the same things. I got a platinum eternity diamond band as my 'vera' and a platinum plain band for everyday...Yes the priest will bless all three. The day of the wedding though I am planning on only wearing and getting my diamond band blessed. I will get the plain one blessed after the wedding.

Re: Greek Brides??

Oh good!!!! I'm assuming you got engaged with the eternity band. But I like that idea of having an everyday one and a diamond one. I still have to find a place to have the dinner at - NO TIME!!! do you know of any places in astoria that will do it on a Saturday night?? I should be booking right? I want it in June lol

Re: Greek Brides??

A friend of my FH had their e-party at Laterna in Bayside. Check out Mythos in Bayside too. I think they have a small room for up to 70 people.
Here are some places to check out:

Karyatis
Esperides

Re: Greek Brides??

I will add more as I think of them

Re: Greek Brides??

There is a place on 29th ave and I think 33rd street too - ughhh I gotto go drive around lol

Re: Greek Brides??

Angela, you look beautiful! Congratulations!

Olga, I think Zodiac cafe has a back room where they do parties- I am not sure if they do Saturday nights though (you may have to share the place with other Greekies for bouzoukia night).

Maybe try Telly's Taverna- they just expanded the restaurant to next doo- they may be able to rent out the one side.

I'll try to think of more.

Re: Greek Brides??

I met my FItobe at CAVO TOOO!!!!!! I went out with my friend who had a blind date with my FItobe's cousin - they never got together but we started to talk and a couple of months later it was loveeeeee =))))) I wasn't supposed to go out that night because it was 25 Martiou and my sister and grandmother yiortazoun but somehow my friend complained so much I couldn't take it anymore that I finally said Fine I'll go out for an hour. I was in ghetto pants, some shirt and I HADN'T SHOWERED lol and no Im not kidding - she called me like 2 hours before we went out!!! No makeup, my hair back in a bun - you know I was looking lovely! But he still fell for me that night with me looking lovely in all my glory =))) For our engagemnt we want to do it in Astoria so that we can take all the guys our age to Cavo =))))

Re: Greek Brides??

Re: Greek Brides??

I was talking to my FItobe and he is like we should have the engagement party at Cavo - so I called them up and have an appt for next Tuesday. That's so nuts what they've dont to the place - remember when it was one room!!!!!!!!

Re: Greek Brides??

Sorry to chime in here girls...but i was laughing with your stories...I met my husband at one of the famous GOYAL get togethers...how cheesy.

I wasn't supposed to go out that night either...I was already in bed in my pajamas and my cousin came over at 11pm and literally dragged me out of bed. I so looked like crap.

Funny on how things work out.

Re: Greek Brides??

hahah GOYAL! wonderful!!!! You never know where you are going to find someone I guess but we prove the fact of you find them when you're not looking!!! =)) Ohmigosh I don't believe GOYAL lol That's where my mom met my dad - they were both dragged to a GOYAL dance lol

Re: Greek Brides??

heheehheeh. I know. I used to make fun of people who went to goyal parties.

Re: Greek Brides??

That's ok!!! As long as you met him right?? It's funny - most of the Greek people whomarry other greeks meet at some sort of Greek function - like a kafenio or club or GOYAL =) I never hear - we met at work, we met on the train or whatnot lol
