Wedding of Panayoti Vaggis - Takis Vanges.

Placing of the stefana

Takis, was the name he was always affectionately called by his mother, Stamatoula Vaggis (nee, Coroneos), eldest daughter of Triunduphilos Koroneos, and Georgia Koroneos (nee, Mentis).

Takis was born in Kythera. Mother and father separated early in the marriage. Toula took her three sons to Germany, where they lived and worked for many years.

In her late 40's, Toula decided to migrate to Australia to be with her other 6 brothers and sisters.

Takis decided not to emigrate to Australia, and returned to Athens where he has lived ever since.
