We had an amazing time yesterday with Samiya and Hadi – these two are nothing but classy. They both are the type of people that you can meet with and just talk to for hours. Hadi took about fifteen minutes to get ready in his bathroom while Samiya took about two hours or so. Some times I feel we guys have it lucky. We were blessed with a beautiful day, albeit a little on the hot side, and absolutely gorgeous natural light.
It was truly one of the most relaxed wedding receptions we’ve ever had. The first two days – the henna ceremony (mendhi) and wedding day (shadi) – were held in Florida. We were commissioned to take care of the third day – the reception on behalf of the groom’s family (walima). Everything was pretty straight forward starting with a small brunch at the Hadi’s house followed by the preparation period and finishing off with a dinner reception. One thing to definitely note is that everything finished before schedule. Yes, it’s true – everything finished early which means Hadi’s brother Hani gets a big shout out for being super organized.
