Hey lovelies! Sorry for the lack of posting, we've been in Greece for about a week now on our annual summer vacation. The kids are finally over their jet-lag (thank God) because waking up at 4:30 am everyday for a whole week is less than awesome. We went to a huge wedding (almost 400 people) in the small town of Astros and had a great time with all our fam and friends. In fact almost 100 people came from Canada alone for the wedding...nothing like a 9 hour time change to bring home-town friends together!
One of these kids is not like the others... Mama's too tall and in need of a tan!
Up "the mountain" at the brides family home, starting off with some traditional dancing before heading down to the church for the ceremony
The tradition of walking the bride to the church to meet her groom
Arriving at the church
Joining the rest of the guest waiting for the wedding to begin
Inside the church during the ceremony
Waiting for the couple to exit the church, not all the guest "fit" inside the church so they waited outside!
The happy couple...they're married!
The get-away (Smart) car
At the reception dinner, traditional Greek desserts and candy coated Jordan almonds called" Boubounaries"
Mama feeling good after a few glasses of wine
The couple arrived to the party by boat!
The reception was outside by the water..dinner for 400!
The bride got the dancing started at around 1:00 am
The groom busted a move, dancing the traditional Zeibekiko dance
The wedding was a blast and of course we didn't make it back to our hotel until almost 6:00 am and the band was still playing...
More updates will be coming but our internet is a bit sketchy and I'm not sure how often I'll post... tho I'll try to keep you kids updated as much as possible!
Hope your July has been fun in the sun, where ever you are!

Hi Fabulous! I came over from Adrienne's blog. (The Rich Life n a budget). I love this reportage! On one photo I thought the priest was taking a photo with a SLR camera, but it was probably just a photographer. The photos capture the atmosphere so well! Thank you for posting this event. It warms my day (15°C in Vienna, Austria, 2 weeks no sun, just rain and cold winds). cheers, Paula

Looks like lots of fun! Where I used to live there was a Greek family a few doors up...when the daughter got married we all lined up to watch the whole family walk from there house to the church :O)
There is NOTHING like a Greek wedding... and nothing like summers in Greece! I can't wait to take my children next summer. xo
That church is beautifully insane. That's probably not right to say...but it is mind blowing...gorgeous.
That is like movie perfect..the whole thing, the wedding, the setting, etc. What an incredible trip, can't wait to see more photos :)
I've never heard of the custom where everyone meets at the bride's house and walks to the church together- I love it! And that reception sounds and looks like so much fun! I just LOVE when weddings are full of fun and celebration (and not boring and stuffy).
BTW- great pick on your wedding attire. :)
Look at your lashes lady! Wowza! You look fantastic :-)
The brides dress is gorgeous!
Hope you're having a fantastic time on your holiday x
This looks like my kind of party! Wow, I can't believe there were 400 people in attendance and 100 of those people flew all the way from Canada! You all must be very close to one another! Enjoy the rest of your time in Greece!
Looks like such a fun wedding!!! Love the Smart Car getaway vehicle!
Awww, such lovely photos... Hope you had an amazing time in Greece!
400 people - that's like the norm here, even for a Christening! Crazy!
