Does the procedure with the crowns occur in all Greek weddings, or only of the ones of royal families?

I am in no way accusing you of thinking she is superior; I find it amusing that your response that she was'nt was promted by the coment of her acting silly. Can anyone please tell me why peope in general think she is 'snooty'? I personally have no prob with her, I think she is classy. I must admit that I don't know much about her family but whenever she is refered to or talked about people always mention her attitude-has she got a big attitude problem? Too many points and question, I know and I apologise, maybe a thread should be created 4 what bothers people about her attitude. It would b a heck of a lot helpful to my curiosity.

Which castle is that posted in #46? It looks so familiar, but my mind is drawing a blank.

That is Hampton Court Palace and it was built by the Archbishop of Canterbury in Henry VIII's time. He lost the palace and his life when he failed to secure a divorce between Henry and Catherine of Aragon.

Actually the crowns are used during every Orthodox wedding. There is a symbol of them - but I'm not very sure I remember what it is about...:). But it's not specific to royal weddings, they are used for every Orthodox wedding.:)

Hola mentions that it is The Hampton Court Palace where the wedding party took place. This castle was the oficial residence for the Royal Family until the death of King George II and was built during King Henry VIII reign.
