Fondest memory: During my numerous trips to Cyprus I have made a multitude of friends and have been fortunate enough to be invited to two weddings within the village. Both have taken place in the main church and have been followed by a reception in the village hall.
Both weddings have been between a Cypriot and a Brit but have followed the traditional ceremony of the Orthodox church with the switching of the bands on the heads of the bride and groom.
Many of the villagers call in at the reception if only for a short time. They greet the families, offer their gifts and then participate in the food and drink. There can be anything up to 2000 guests attending during the whole course of the reception.
