It was a seated dinner with music. The museum’s space was rented to the former royal family of Greece, with one significant obligation – the family had to cover the cost of maintaining the museum’s gardens, including plant renewal and equipment upkeep.

Members of royal families and foreign journalists have arrived in Greece for the three-day event, with much attention from the foreign press on the wedding and reception, where haute couture outfits will be on full display. On Sunday, the newlyweds will also host a farewell brunch for all their guests, once again at the One & Only Aesthesis.
