Mike and Marcella is a couple that lives in United States and chose Chania for their Orthodox wedding, in June 2014. The ceremony took place at a very small and beautiful chapel. Τhe decoration consisted of a large garland made of roses around the chapel entrance and two large decorated candles. All the attendants were given a translation of the ceremony and hand fans.

Afterwards, the wedding reception took place at a gorgeous restaurant beside the sea where the 40 guests, had a taste of the traditional cretan cuisine. The restaurant space was decorated with small lanterns and textile ornaments. On the tables there were vases full of Peonies and Arums. The party lasted until early morning hours and at the midnight, many Chinese sky lanterns were launched to the sky, along with many wishes for the newlyweds.
