Wedding Photos (Syros 2009)

[Mentalist]

Well, I've been very busy this Summer hence why I haven't been around that much. I'm still compiling my summer album (we're only half way through of course) but I thought I would post some pics from Leo's wedding at which I was the best man.

It was a logistical nightmare pulling it off. We had 60 guests from America (Leo and Candace's friends and family) of which about 30 had never even left the USA before as well as many friends from Greece as well of course.

We traveled by boat to a secluded church built in to the rock (Aggio Stefanos) for the ceremony and then went to Delfini (another beach on the island) for the after party. The whole thing was well..fucking spectacular actually and everything went perfectly.

I'll just post a few for the minute. I'm still waiting to get sent the DVD of the whole thing since I'm naturally going to be editing that and when it's done I'll post it as well.

Me, Leo, Nikos (our boat driver) and Todd (the Minister) arriving at Gallisas to pick up the guys first to take them to Aggio Stefanos. Me, Todd and Leo had travelled independantly from the main group to get ready beforehand.

All the boys on the boat going to Aggio Stefanos. (my mother is taking these pictures by the way) We left the girls for the second trip.... Naturally

Here comes the Bride, sister and mother of the Bride ready to board for the second trip. us boys were already there by now.

Women and kids boarding the boat.

Flowers!

The girls arrive at Aggio Stefanos. This place is impossible to get to without a boat. As I said before it's built in to the side of the rock. Us boys have already cracked a lot of booze by this point and we're waving them in here.

Leo waving to the boat

Guys trying to dock the boat..

Everyone finally arrives. It's even more beautiful in person...

Candace arrives off the boat last (the bride)

Leo is already at the Champs....

Electra (my girlfriend)

Me and Electra (I have my eyes closed in so many pictures. Typical)

Jon, me, David and Todd.

We met Jon and David in Mykonos when Todd, me, Renos, Leo and Adam went on the Bachelor party. They're U.S Soldiers on holiday after their tour in Iraq. These guys were awesome and we raged it up in Mykonos with them and got completely hammered so we invited them to the wedding in Syros so they cancelled their tickets and came for a week! I'm still recovering. Great guys.

Todd and Electra. Champagne time.

[Cassie]

I thought you were surprising us with pictures from your own wedding, lol.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Great pics, looks like an awesome place to get married (or do anything really.)

 

[whisky]

For a minute I thought it was you getting married!

Great pics!

 

[The Tomtrek]

So this is this "outside" you speak of?

Ahhh.

 

[Conchaga]

Looks like fun, D. Great photos. Can't wait to hear the stories. Electra's hot. Good score, mate.

PFAH Dion! I say PFAH! Your beautiful sunkissed Greek island life has no patch on my plodding, Civil Servant in the rainy British summer singleton life! You can't fool me with these pictures of you, a lovely setting and a fit bird, I know who has the higher possibility of finding a new 20p piece without the year on the back, so FNAR!!!

 

[curiousa2z]

Utterly fabulous, D. Thanks for sharing.
and Συγχαρητήρια! to the newly weds!!!

[Seph]

[Fuddlemiff]

Wow-wee. It's like you're in a lavish Greek myth.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I suppose anyone who started singing "Mamma Mia" got a bloody nose, eh?"

Just gorgeous!

 

[Conchaga]

I'm not sure whether I should cheer, pleasure myself, or soak in self abasement.

Maybe all three, simultaneously.

That reminds me. Does anyone else think that the image of a clown crying while masturbating is funny?

 

[Seph]

Depends on who's clown it is...... but potentially very funny.


if u, oh shit id laugh...

A few more from a day swimming at Gallisas beach and drinking in Green Dollars bar

See that's how you do it! We should have done that, looks so easy and relaxed, sooooo gorgeous!!!

I love the under water pictures, our photographer suggested we jump in the pool at the country club as it was 50 thousand degrees outside but after a while inside the cool A/C we declined, now I kind of wish I had.

I feel schmucky for not yet posting BDM's and my wedding pictures but we're busy, I fucking hate house buying, it's a Goddamned pain in the ass.
