Bellissima la sposa e splendido abito.... di una raffinatissima eleganza!!!
Los reyes Constantino y Ana María son tan bellas personas 💕💝 Es una lástima que no hayan podido reinar. Lamentablemente el pueblo griego no supo apreciar la a esta familia real, que es la más hermosa de todas
Beautiful.
Hermosa Boda la de Alexia de Grecia

In times like this, with much destructive force it is so import to pull strength from our culture. Europe has a long tradition of supporting their Kings and the Royal Families. They have so much to offer of their lands culture they know the history of their palaces. The Scandinavian countries model have so much to offer. The people love when they open up their weddings, their beautiful gardens, interesting exhibitions about their antiques and history. Greece you have always had your kings you kingdom, why do you not choose the Scandinavien Model with their openness. It is much more fun to have a King and Queen, the country will be way more happy and all your beautiful castle and parks will again have the "ROYAL TOUCH".

@divineangelvoice - The Greek royal family was a Danish transplant. Not Greek. The government approached the major European royal houses and basically asked for a volunteer for their throne; they had deposed their former king, Otto, the second son of King Ludwig I of Bavaria, in 1862 . After several royal princes declined because of the history of governmental instability in the country, as well as the incongruity of “adopting” a non-Greek king, King Christian IX of Denmark ordered his second son, George, to do it. George married a Russian Grand Duchess (Romanov), and reigned for 50 years before being assassinated in 1913. So you see, your perception of what a “Greek” monarchy could do for the country is way our if line with true European royal houses. I am not insulting former King Constantine II has proven himself to be very loyal to the Greek people, and to be a good man, however….the whole issue is with the Greek politicians who treated their imported royals like crap.
What a shame that Greece didn’t retain the Royal Family - it would have been great for the country. 🇬🇷

I have been looking at the videos of Prince Paul and Princess Alexia's weddings back in 1995 and 1999 and I find that these two weddings were attended by more royalties than the one of Prince Phillipos this past Saturday. Also in these videos, we see part of the ceremony inside which we don't see so far with Prince Phillipos religious wedding ceremony. Is just an observation

1st: those weddings were before Covid 2nd: Philippos got married in Greece, in the main Cathedral of Athens. Greece is not a monarchy while the UK is. It would have been too far if they decided to film the wedding. 3rd: Prince Pavlos was born heir

@@lizziebkennedy7505 I checked in a magazine I have here called Majesty and in it they say that Marie Chantal Miller converted to Greek Orthodoxy on the 22 May 1995 a few weeks before her July 1 wedding to prince Pavlos. She had to go to this process since she was marrying the potential heir to the fallen Greek throne.

Hepy briday for you
Une ambiance bon enfant car les invités présentes étaient tous plus ou moins parents proches ou éloignés. Alexia et Carlos ont eu quatre enfants, naissances rapprochées dues sans doute à l'horloge biologique qui n'a pas empêché la princesse d'avoir son quatrième et dernier enfant à plus de quarante ans. PS J'adore son sourire 😊 !
the ONLY country with Imported Kings.

A referendum occurred in Greece by vote in 1974 about whether to keep the Royal Family going - they decided not to. That’s a shame, as it would have been better for Greece if they were retained I think.

They are not at all of Greek blood or from Greek families.....nothing against the people I'm sure they are kind at heart ....but they were just given Greek names and converted to orthodox religion...as far as I know they descendants from German English and Danish royal houses.So what makes them Greek 🤔 🙄

How silly! Prince Philip wasn’t of Greek _descent,_ as it says in the description….he had a Greek _title!_ He was of Danish, Greek, Russian (Romanov), and German descent. And not one drop of Greek blood!

Like the rest of the 'Greek' Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburgs, members of the former Royal Family.
