"Even though people may be well known
they still hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the
moments that are the most important of those we know on earth—birth,
marriage, death. We wish our wedding to be a private moment in the little chapel among the cypresses of Skorpios Island in Greece."
-- Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, day before her marriage to Aristotle Onassis in 1968.
