Traditional Greek Orthodox Wedding Ceremony

After the couple exchanges rings, the bride and groom are both "crowned" during the climax of the ceremony. Not only does the crowning signify that the two are officially husband and wife, but it traditionally signifies them as the queen and king of their "new kingdom."
