    Description

     

    The Pelion Wedding consists of a series of popular events which indirectly suggest and demonstrate the communion, the absolute involvement and the identification of the guests – namely the whole village – with the newlyweds. In the central square of Portaria “Melina Merkouri” and in front of the two Pelion rooms of the bride and groom constructed for this purpose with old utensils, the tradition begins with the engagements, continues with the cutting of the wedding dress, covered with flour, and closes with the wedding. In both evenings, traditional dances from Pelion and other parts of Greece are performed by the dance group “ORMINIO”. Finally, in the main square, in a specially designed area, there is an exhibition of local agricultural products where local wine and tsipouro are offered to the public, with appropriate mezedes, since tradition has it that all guests are offered a treat during a wedding. When the customs are completed, there is a folk feast.
