Re: halkidiki wedding - 16 years ago
Hi Linz, We also heard that quality of photos not up to much so we asked Nic if he would do ours. He hasnt done wedding photography before but agreed to do our photos if we agreed to be his guinea pigs, and im sure we wont have any problems. He also took photos of kassandra town hall for us all as nobody could find much info. What date have you booked for and what hotel?by lucky lady - Halkidiki

Hi All, Weve booked to fly out 1st of may 08, hopefully get married on the 9th, we also been told that dates are not confirmed till arrival in resort, and are usually on a friday between 10am & 2pm, so if you want sunset wedding photos, take this into consideration also when booking photographer.by lucky lady - Halkidiki
