Με μεγάλη χαρά και σε εορταστικό κλίμα, η Ελληνική Ένωση Διοργανωτών Εκδηλώσεων με Προορισμό την Ελλάδα (GDPA) πραγματοποίησε την καθιερωμένη κοπή της πρωτοχρονιάτικης πίτας στο εστιατόριο Athénée, την Τρίτη 11 Φεβρουαρίου. Η εκδήλωση συγκέντρωσε μέλη του Σωματείου, επαγγελματίες του χώρου και συνεργάτες, σε μια βραδιά γεμάτη έμπνευση, ανταλλαγή απόψεων και δικτύωση.
Ιδιαίτερες ευχαριστίες απευθύνουμε στo Mέλος μας Panas Group και συγκεκριμένα τους κ.κ. Σπύρο και Χρύσανθο Πανά – των οποίων η συμβολή συνέβαλε καθοριστικά στην επιτυχία της βραδιάς. Η δημιουργικότητα και η επαγγελματική τους προσέγγιση προσέφεραν στους καλεσμένους μια ξεχωριστή εμπειρία.
Επίσης, να ευχαριστήσουμε την ομάδα των Wedtime Stories για την φωτογραφική κάλυψη & την εταιρεία The Cakers για την πίτα του Σωματείου, το ξενοδοχείο Costa Navarino για το δώρο στο φλουρί της πίτας, καθώς και τους Live Sketchers για την δημιουργική νότα που χάρισαν στους παρευρισκόμενους, ζωγραφίζοντας τα πορτραίτα τους κατά τη διάρκεια της εκδήλωσης.
Η εκδήλωση αυτή αποτέλεσε μια μοναδική ευκαιρία για τα μέλη του GDPA να συναντηθούν, να ανταλλάξουν ιδέες και να συζητήσουν τις προοπτικές του κλάδου για το 2025. Το Σωματείο συνεχίζει με συνέπεια την αποστολή του να προάγει την ποιότητα και την εξέλιξη της ελληνικής βιομηχανίας γάμου, υποστηρίζοντας τους επαγγελματίες και ενισχύοντας τη διεθνή προβολή της Ελλάδας ως κορυφαίου προορισμού για destination weddings.
Ευχαριστούμε θερμά όλους όσοι παρευρέθηκαν και συνέβαλαν στην επιτυχία της εκδήλωσης. Ευχόμαστε σε όλους μια δημιουργική και παραγωγική χρονιά γεμάτη όμορφες στιγμές και επαγγελματικές επιτυχίες.
💃🏻🪩 When the sun sets, Greece turns celebration into an experience. Neon lights, music that carries into the night, tables that turn into dance floors, and guests who never want the party to end.
✨In Greece, parties are not an afterthought, they’re a feeling.

✨ Honouring Cultures ✨
The Chinese tea ceremony, known as Cha Dao, is a wedding ritual rooted in respect and gratitude, where the couple honours their elders by serving tea, a gesture symbolising unity, family, and continuity.
💙 Weddings are not only about the love shared between two people, but also about the heritage, values, and traditions that shape their story, with Greece offering the perfect setting for cultures to meet and be celebrated.

✨ The soul of a wedding lives within its traditions.
Rituals passed down through generations are more than ceremonies, they are expressions of identity, heritage, and love.
💙 Greece embraces cultural traditions from around the world, offering a setting where every couple can celebrate their story with authenticity and respect. Today, we share a glimpse into an exquisite Hindu wedding in Santorini, where meaningful rituals, colour, and symbolism beautifully blended with the island’s natural charm.

✨ At the heart of a Jewish wedding stands the Chuppah, a beautifully adorned canopy symbolizing the couple’s new home.
Open on all sides, it represents warmth, hospitality, and the embrace of loved ones as the couple begins their life together.
Both sacred and intimate, the Chuppah becomes the space where vows are exchanged and tradition comes alive, reflecting the spiritual depth and cultural heritage of Jewish marriage rituals.
💙 Greece offers a timeless, welcoming backdrop where cultural heritage is honoured with care.
