FAQs
Question
Where should I park?
Answer
Both the church and The Watermark have ample, free parking for all of our guests. We want all our guests to have a wonderful time partying with us and make it home safely. If you would like to leave your car overnight at either location, we kindly ask that you let a staff member know and collect your vehicle before 9AM the next morning.
Question
What can I expect in a Greek Orthodox wedding ceremony?
Answer
The Greek Orthodox faith is steeped in tradition. The marriage service in the Orthodox Church is divided into two parts: The Rite of Betrothal and the Rite of Crowning. Both rites are filled with images and references from the Old and New Testaments. The service usually lasts 45-60 minutes.

Question
Is there a dress code?

Question
Will there be Greek dancing?
Answer
Yes! If you’d like, you can check out this short YouTube video for a basic how-to before the wedding, otherwise we say just hold hands with the people next to you, smile and have a great time! https://youtu.be/6KiZDFcW4uI
