    Don't think this is special enough but I'm getting married in Spain and I'm getting fans for the ladies

    Could you get them something while you're over in Greece? Like a bottle of ouzo for the gents (for example http://www.greeksouvenirshop.com/main.php?cPath=171 )and some greek sweets for the ladies (for example http://www.greekinternetmarket.com/specialty.php ) Then you wouldn't need to worry about the weight - and they'd be carrying them home with them in their cases.

    Hi,

    Don't forget what ever you buy here you have to get it there & likewise if you buy something there for parents they have to get it back. There are some lovely prints in frames of Lindos in Lindos shops etc which might be good. Favours for guests we are either getting mini bottles of Ouzo or asking the reception venue to serve everyone with a shot of Ouzo at the end of the night.
    Married the man of my dreams - 10th September 2012, St Paul's Bay Lindos :jIt was amazing.
