I'd agree, It would be safer for them to be in a nice private mausoleum...

 I thought that it was a party, not a second wedding.

Wildfires in Greece have reached the outskirts of Athens and are now threatening the grounds and graves in the royal cemetery of the Tatoi Palace.

The Palace is of course in bad repair as are the graves. The Palace and its wine cellars has also been looted many times since the Greek Royal Family left. However, there were reports of repairs and renovation in the near future and it would be disastrous if it was to be burned out. Prince Nicholas is at the Palace and the authorities have ordered that documents and other artefacts must be evacuated.

News report below.

BREAKING:
Tatoi Palace is now threatened by fires.

Greek media reports that the fire now has invaded the interior of the royal park & the royal cemetery.

According to the president of the Association of Friends of Tatoi the situation is extremely critical.

The winds seem to have changed around Athens and therefore the terrible wildfires that were threatening the Tatoi Palace, late home of the Greek royal family, seem to have receded. However, much of the surrounding park land has been burned out.

Scenes of Tatoi Palace and surrounding area after the wildfires have swept through. Devastation, but it appears the main house has largely been spared.

The article declared: The Mystery is expected to be one of the most important secular events in the city   
        Why is the religious wedding referred to as The Mystery?

If it is a religious ceremony how can it be a secular event?

@Amabel2 - Perhaps the information that was shared is a poor translation into English?

@LouisFerdinand -In the Orthodox denominations, the Sacraments are referred to as mysteries as they recognize God's presence in them.

The Sacraments (Mysteries) | Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church

QuoteThere are special experiences in our corporate life as Orthodox Christians when the perception of God's presence and actions is heightened and celebrated. We call these events of the Church Sacraments. Traditionally, the Sacraments have been known as Mysteries in the Orthodox Church. This description emphasizes that in these special events of the Church, God discloses Himself through the prayers and actions of His people.

Besides the members of the extended Greek Royal Family there's representation from the Spanish and Danish royal families due to their family connections. Also spotted arriving were members from the Hannovers and the York sisters and their spouses from the BRF.

Here's a good gallery highlighting the guests' arrival. The groom's siblings have arrived and with their spouses and family.
