Greek ladies

Did you help your koumbaroi pick out the stefana & lambades or did you let them pick whatever they liked? And how far in advance did you get it and where from? Sorry for all the q's

Re: Greek ladies

I told my koumbara the same thing, to go with her mom, because I dont really care what they look like. But she looked really confused.

Re: Greek ladies

I think they are getting them from 3 angels in huntington, or some place in astoria.....

I think they are picking them out themselves.....I trust their taste

When I was a koumbara 2 years ago, we used the 3 angels lady in huntington........I think I ordered everything around nov/december for her February wedding?

Re: Greek ladies

I went with my koumbara and I pretty much picked what I wanted. We went 2 weeks ago but there is no rush, we just went cause she was in town.

We hit up a few places in astoria. First place was called Kentrikon Noufaro it was on the corner 31st and23rd road. It was way overpriced. Then we went to Astron which had some nice ones and much more reasonably priced. They are on 31st just past 23rd ave.

We ended up getting them from 'Hellenic Gifts' which is on 23rd ave and 31st street, across from Lefkos Pyrgos (if your familiar). They had a large selection.

All these places are withing 3 blocks of eachother. There is also Markellas in astoria but I didnt go there so I dont know how they are.

Re: Greek ladies

did they doa good job wrapping? EHH yea i guess

they used netting.. the bottoms on a lot of them were freyed and again.. half the favors didnt have personalized ribbon.

so i wouldnt go back to them


plus they didnt help us carry the boxes to the car. they were more concerned eating their cheeseburger deluxes.


if i had a business i would help customers with boxes. just common courtesy
