Princess Maria of Romania, the fifth and youngest daughter of King Michael and Queen Anne of Romania, married Polish Nobleman Kazimierz Wiesław Mystkowski at the Greek Orthodox Holy Trinity Cathedral in New York City. The couple divorced in 2003.

On 16 September 1995, Maria married Kazimierz Wiesław Mystkowski, a Polish nobleman from the Mystkowski family and a computer engineer.Raised in a Catholic family, he is the son of Eugeniusz Mystkowski and his wife, Janina Wadelowska.

The wedding celebration was held at the Greek Orthodox Holy Trinity Cathedral in New York, and was attended by the Romanian royal family, the parents of Kazimierz, the newly married Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Greece. King Michael I served as the couple’s koumbaros (the best man who, during a Greek Orthodox wedding, exchanges the crowns over the couples heads).

LP Staff Writers

Writers at Lord’s Press come from a range of professional backgrounds, including history, diplomacy, heraldry, and public administration. Many publish anonymously or under initials—a practice that reflects the publication’s long-standing emphasis on discretion and editorial objectivity. While they bring expertise in European nobility, protocol, and archival research, their role is not to opine, but to document. Their focus remains on accuracy, historical integrity, and the preservation of events and individuals whose significance might otherwise go unrecorded.
