Traditions

Crowns
The bride and groom wear crowns during the ceremony. The crowns generally are white or gold, or made of long-lasting flowers such as orange blossoms, or of "twigs of love and vine" wrapped in silver and gold paper.
The symbolic crowns which a Greek bride and groom wear are, during the ceremony, often attached by ribbons. This outward sign symbolizes the ties between a husband and wife.

Sugar
To ensure a sweet life, the bride may carry a lump of sugar in her glove.

Wine
At the altar, Greek couple sip wine three times to symbolize the Trinity.
