Although the rain did not stop for one moment, the whole day ended up being perfect and (mostly) according to plan. We planned to have an outdoor ceremony but because of the rain, we had to have a last minute indoor ceremony which ended up being so perfect and seeing my groom waiting for me (though he couldn't even look at me!) was so amazing.
We went on an Egyptian adventure learning all about the history and wonders of the magnificent pyramids and temples.

Green tea and water everyday.
Use a face mask every week.
Try and eat healthy - no biscuits and sandwiches for tea!
Teeth cleaning a week before the wedding.
The Groom wore a boutique Sherwani with purple pants and purple working on the top. He also wore what I call "Aladdin shoes". My favourite colour is purple so for him to choose a purple and white outfit was quite a pleasant surprise.
My bridesmaids wore dresses designed by me and made by a local dressmaker. They were in our colour scheme of deep purple and turquoise with an elegant lace element along with some bling. They all had soft curls and plaits on either side of their head with little white flowers in their hair.
Raheem Sheik captured our special day on video and photographs. It was really cool, he captured everything that I had discussed before the wedding and asked for.
I designed and printed all our wedding stationery.
