The Crowning Ceremony is the highlight of the Greek Orthodox Wedding Service.

The Bride and Groom are regarded as part of the "royal family" of God and are crowned king and queen of their own dominion, their new fellowship and family. The Bride and Groom are crowned with thin crowns known as stefana (stephana), which are joined by a white ribbon that are blessed by the priest. Making the sign of the cross on the Groom's forehead he exclaims, "The Servant of God (groom's name) takes as his crown The Servant of God (bride's name) in the name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit".

The wedding crowns / stefana symbolise the glory and honour that is being bestowed on them by God, and the ribbon symbolises their unity.The Koumbaro / Best Man then exchanges the crowns / stefana between the head of the couple three times
