Shortly after saying "I do," Prince Nikolaos of Greece and his new wife Chrysí Vardinogiánni released the official wedding photos which capture their joy and love on their special day.
The royal pair, who have been together for less than a year, tied the knot in a private ceremony at the Holy Church of Saint Nicholas Ragavas in Athens on Friday afternoon.
A statement issued following the nuptials read: "On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 18:00, the Greek Orthodox wedding of Nikolaos De Grèce and Chrysi Vardinogianni took place at the Holy Church of St. Nicholas Rangavas in Athens.
"The ceremony was led by His Eminence, Metropolitan of Kissamos & Selinos, Amphilochios, and attended by close relatives and friends.The groom’s siblings, Pavlos, Alexia, and Theodora, and his nephew Konstantinos-Alexios were among the couple's best men and bridesmaids."
Their wedding was attended by family and close friends, including Nikolaos' mother Queen Anne-Marie and his four siblings – Princess Alexia, Prince Pavlos, Princess Theodora and Prince Philippos.

Chrysí wore a breathtaking gown by Christos Costarellos and the Queen Anne-Marie's Antique Corsage Tiara, and looked every bit the princess alongside her groom, who was dashing in his formal attire.
Nikolaos and Chrysí grew close after the end of their respective marriages; the Greek royal parted ways from his ex-wife of 14 years, Princess Tatiana, in 2024.
Chrysí, the daughter of ship owner Giorgos Vardinogiannis, split from her first husband Greek singer Stefanos Xypolitas - with whom she shares two children - in 2017 and ended her romance with director Konstantinos Markoulakis in December 2023.
The couple have long been family friends, with Chrysí secretly attending the 55-year-old Greek Prince's sister Princess Theodóra's wedding with Matthew Kumar in September 2024. Looking beautiful in a floor-length ruched red gown, Chrysí arrived at the nuptials separately from her beau.
They were first photographed together following his father King Constantine's memorial meal in January 2025.
Just days before their wedding, Chrysí and Nikolaos made a joint trip to Copenhagen, where they were spotted arriving at the Danish royal family's residence, Amalienborg.
