I'm more than likely the one who recommended Markos Karvounis to you in this forum, and in case you haven't done any research on him, here are a few of the websites I've seen that pertain to his abilities:

I've known him since 1985. In 2001 I went Oia for my 4th visit and observed his preparations for a wedding that took place while I was there. To me it looked like a very special and unique wedding, and everyone had big smiles on their faces. Just thought you'd like to know.

Our meeting with MArkos convinced us not to use him - thought he was completely useless telling us to see everyone ourselves and then he might get a better deal for us. Ok, so what do you do exactly? My wife is Greek so was not the case of the dumb tourist

Travelnick-

I've known Markos for 18 years. It's my guess that for whatever reason, he just did not like you and this was his way of putting you off. Not very professional, I agree, but effective nonetheless. If you look at the websites of people who have used him you will see that he's very good at his job and works hard for those he takes on as clients. He successfully organizes many weddings every year, and to the satisfaction of all those newlyweds. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. Good luck with yours.
