GREEK ORTHODOX WEDDING CUSTOM
DURING THE WEDDING CEREMONY THE BRIDE AND GROOM BOTH WEAR
A CROWN. THIS CROWN IS TO SYMBOLIZE THEIR UNION WITH
CHRIST. IT IS VERY IMPRESSIVE. I BELIEVE IT IS SIMILAR
TO THE LEBANESE CUSTOM OF PASSING A WREATH TO EACH (BRIDE
AND GROOM) HEAD TO SYMBOLIZE THEIR UNION WITH CHRIST.
