I'm getting married in Sept 2004 - but my FMIL is going down to Greece on Sunday - is there anything I should DEFINETLY have her bring back from Greece for the wedding??? I don't know when the next relative will be going down. Any ideas?

Hi Girls....


I'm greek too. Got married last November. Olga, I think we have posted on the Knot as well.

I used Accoustics for my wedding and was very happy with them. (They are a little weak on the american side though) but since my wedding was mostly greek, I didn't mind.

My sister used Something Special and they are def. over priced. They were good but not worth 5K. She regrets using them because they were very rude and played nothing she asked for.

I hear that Alpha Band is really good. (They have 2 sets of bands, make sure you ask for the 1st.) The second are just back up members they have who don't often play together. VIPS are good too.

Congrats and best of luck to all of you. Let me know if you info on any other vendors.

Get married at whatever church you go to/like - I would feel so weird getting married at a random church I wasnt even familiar with! (I've been goign to St. Nicks since I was 5! did the whole day school/ GOYA Basketball thing +++) so I can't picture it anywhere else!

No meetings on Weds - what meetings on weds actually and which church - no idea what you're talking about lol I'm so slow =) We are deciding to stay with Sand Castle - just had to get it out of our system to see other places! And yes we did Vienese table!!!! You cannot have a wedding without it! Especially with a family full of girls!

Hi Deby--

I love Father George as well but Father Taso was my favorite (and family friend), so he performed the ceremony along with Father Paul at St. Nicks. It was nice.

My sister's husband is from Bayridge and this is where she lives now. She gets to see Father George at church all the time.

Olga--

I hear Sandcastle is beautiful. I've never been there but I have only heard good reviews.

Re: Greek Brides??

Thanks guys! It's good to hear all good reviews!!! Father G's talks were great!! I miss them so much =( My FItobe has never met him but will soon!

The SandCastle menu is HUGE - so that makes me happy! (I luv to eat!!!)

Re: Greek Brides??

What about Greece?? We might get our rings engraved in Greek if we go to Greece this summer. Are you going anytime soon?

Olgaki

Re: Greek Brides??

We were supposed to go this summer - we were even thinking of getting engaged there but don't know yet. I hope we do - we went last summer so I could meet his family =)) I hope someone here can do it if not. BTW where are you having your engagement part? We were thinking something small - like 30 - 40 people and having it somewhere in Astoria like Karyatis

I had my e-party in February at the Chateau Briand in Westbury. I had about 100 people and that was all close close friends and family. I would have done something smaller, except that I def. wanted something with dancing so we opted for a hall with a dance floor. It was amazing!!! We had two priests come for the blessing.
