This Greek dancing priest video will not only put a smile on your face, but also shows a vanishing tradition of the past at Greek weddings. In many areas of Greece the first dance at the reception following an Orthodox wedding had to be performed by the priest and the newlyweds. Last weekend this Greek couple revived the tradition in Birmingham, UK. For more #GreekTradition follow Greek Reporter! Video filmed by Zeus Films. | Greek Reporter

In the Orthodox Christian tradition, to which the Greek Orthodox Church also belongs, the feast of Epiphany is associated with the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River. Epiphany customs in Greece and Cyprus revolve around the Great Blessing of the Waters. During these ceremonies, which are held on beaches, lakes, and rivers, a cross is thrown into the water by a Greek Orthodox priest, and then boys and men compete to retrieve it so that they may have good luck throughout the year. | Helle
