Cyprus, the romantic island of the Mediterranean, the birthplace of the Goddess Aphrodite, The Goddess of Love. Where else could two people in love wish for a better place to start their life by getting married or renewing their vows. The Goddess herself will bless your wedding for better or for worse until death do you part.

The mythical place where she was said to have come ashore is called "Petra tou Romiou" or the "Rock of the Greek"

Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of love and beauty. She arose from foam in the sea, and was carried to land. Aphrodite could make any man fall in love with her, and many tried to impress her. However, Zeus and Hera arranged for their son, Hephaestus to marry her. Although Hephaestus was deformed and ugly, she did not mind marrying him. She thought that he would give her the freedom she needed, instead of controlling her as the other gods had tried. However, Aphrodite loved being independent and glamorous more than anything, and soon grew tired of her marriage. At this point, she had an affair with Ares. Hephaestus caught the two together, but Aphrodite showed no shame or remorse for her actions. She felt that this was acceptable behavior as the goddess of love. Aphrodite is attributed with the dolphin, the dove, the swan, the pomegranate, and the lime tree.
