Greek Weddings have beautiful symbolic meanings in the Orthodox Church. The stefana that is used to crown the Bride and Groom has a symbolic meaning just as the lambathas/candles do. The tray and the koufeta along with the commandaria each have a very special place in a Greek Orthodox Wedding. Our cultural and religious traditions fascinate me and it is a topic that I am truly passionate about.
I have spent my days thinking and dreaming about Greek Weddings and I have shared my thoughts here with you on this blog. So now, after six years of writing about Greek Weddings, it feels right to turn my passion in to a business.
It gives me great pleasure to announce the official opening of the Greek Wedding Shop. Here you will find beautiful Greek Orthodox Wedding and Christening Gifts such as Stefana, Lambathes, Bombonerie, Martirika, Koufeta and Easter Candles.
I work with amazing creators and suppliers from all over the world and I personally hand pick each item that is listed on the Greek Wedding Shop.
So if you have an event coming up soon, like a Wedding or a Christening or if you plan to purchase your God Child a candle for Easter next year, then please visit The Greek Wedding Shop.
I would love to hear what you think about my new business. Please share your feedback with me here on the blog or send me an email. Or if you are a designer and you are interested in working with me on the Greek Wedding Shop, then please send me some photos of your creations – I’d love to see what you do too!
