Gică Hagi’s son, Ianis, and Elena Tănase united their destinies before God on Sunday, July 14. The religious wedding took place at the Saint Visarion Church in the Capital and started around 3:00 p.m.
The big event takes place a year after the footballer took his heart and proposed to his girlfriend, right in the city of love, Paris.
The friends of the two young people, the godparents, and the family also participated in this emotional moment. In addition, Gică Popescu, one of the great players of Romania, and Mircea Geoană, the deputy general secretary of NATO, were also among those who were present at the religious ceremony.

Elena Tănase wore a gorgeous dress with a matching train. For the big day, the young woman opted for a bouquet of white peonies. The wedding of the year could not be without the bridesmaids, four in number, who wore blue dresses.
Ianis Hagi didn’t let himself down either. The footballer wore a white jacket and a shirt in the same shade. For a successful contrast, the young man chose to wear a pair of black trousers.
Ianis Hagi and Elena Tănase left the place of worship at 4:21 p.m., according to the quoted source.
From here, they head to the location where the party will take place until dawn, at Domaine Știrbey Vodă from Buftea.
About 500 guests are expected at the party that will start on Sunday, at 19:00, including big names of Romanian sports, Ilie Năstase, Cristi Chivu, Ilie Dumitrescu or Radu Drăguşin. The tent on the meadow on the Ştirbey Vodă Estate will have approximately 1,200 m2.

“There are several tens of thousands of flowers”
In connection with the party at Domeniul Știrbey, Ianis Hagi and his wife wanted to have a superb decoration, and eight trucks with flowers were prepared for this.
“It is a chromatic of white and green that integrates perfectly into this wonderful meadow within the Știrbey Domain, where there are these centuries-old trees around the tent.
The tent is transparent (…) We tried to bring nature from the outside to the inside during the event and in the evening there are candles, around 3,000-4,000 candles.
There are several tens of thousands of flowers, summer flowers, hydrangeas, matthiola, delphinium, garden roses”, said master florist Nicu Bocancea, according to Click!.
The footballer recently declared, on Antena3 CNN, that all Aromanian traditions will be respected at the wedding, including the use of the flag with which they dance all night, called “hlambură”: “Yes, of course. First of all, in our country, the wedding is not without pomp. Hlambura is the flag we dance with all night.
The hlambura is made the day before, only my family gathers, and then at the wedding they dance with the hlambura. And then something that means a lot to us is also the inheritance of godparents from my parents. They are passed down from generation to generation. Grandparents, parents, children and so on. Just as our children will inherit the godparents from us. It’s a tradition that matters quite a bit in a family“.
In the images made public on Facebook by Constanta 100%, the gorgeous bride of Ianis Hagi can be seen. In the same vein, the cited source also captured the hlambura dance. All this happened in Constanța.
