It is tradition in Croatian culture for the bride and groom, the bridal party, family and friends to join in on dancing and singing with a Croatian band (flags and all in the air), starting from Rectors Palace and leading into the main square of the old town. The bride and groom will then lead to the Fortress to get them married! Please note that approximate arrival time to the Fortress will be 5:00 pm so please make sure to be seated for the ceremony by 5:25 pm as the ceremony will commence exactly at 5:30p.m. and no one will be allowed up to the ceremony once it begins. Please join us in this fun tradition!
