The team of the Svadbaholik.ru portal will tell you about them, as well as other features of oriental weddings.
“Highlight” of the East: the main features of a Muslim wedding
Islam is practiced in a significant part of the East, so we will pay attention to such celebrations. We will not bore you with long historical stories, but will simply describe the most important and interesting features oriental wedding, and also add some photos:
- People of other religions are not allowed to attend the celebration. And in general, at a Muslim wedding, unlike other peoples of the world, the priority is the official part of the wedding and the observance of religious rules, rather than the banquet.
- Henna night is the night before the wedding. The girls draw mihendi on the young man's hands, arms and legs. And this is done by a woman who is happily married and is an exemplary wife. The longer the henna stays on the bride's hands, the longer she may not do housework.
- An Eastern marriage is considered legal only after the Nikah ceremony, even if you registered it in the registry office. Nikah can be held before or after the official painting. This takes place in a mosque, and the ceremony is performed by a mullah. After which the young people are given a certificate.
- A banquet in the East is a “Valim” ritual, at which alcoholic and even low-alcohol drinks are prohibited. The young family treats guests to sweets and fruits and entertains them with national dances and songs.
Wedding decoration in traditional oriental style
Decorating a wedding in an oriental style involves using beautiful textile draperies in bright colors such as fuchsia, turquoise, blue, scarlet, orange, lilac, etc.
The “Damascus” pattern is often used in decoration - symmetrically arranged floral motifs, which are often chosen as a theme for a stylish celebration - a wedding in the Damascus style.
Flowers for decorating tables at an oriental wedding are chosen to be large and bright: callas, lilies, orchids, roses, peonies, gladioli. Seats for guests are most often low sofas or ottomans, abundantly strewn with bright pillows.
Oriental wedding dresses and suits
Wedding dresses in oriental style look impressive and luxurious. They are made from natural fabrics, in particular satin or taffeta. The style of the outfit is closed, with long sleeves and a floor-length skirt. It is richly but tastefully decorated with ornaments, patterns, and stones. Color wedding dress depends on the personal preferences of the eastern bride and her country of residence and can vary from white to dark blue and red.

The bride's wedding makeup in an oriental style has a bright accent on the eyes - large black arrows and bright shadows to match the outfit.

After which the groom applies red paint to the forehead and parting of his bride: now they are husband and wife. Only after this, the bride and groom will exchange rings, and everyone present will shower them with flower petals for blessing.
One end of the bride's sari is then tied with the groom's sash, signifying their union and affection for each other. After which the young people circle the sacred fire 7 times. This ritual will forever seal their bonds.
Then everyone goes to celebrate in a room called “bozargan”, where a whole performance is staged with dances and songs. During the concert and entertainment program, relatives and guests of the newlyweds give their gifts.

WHAT DAY OF THE WEEK IS IT BETTER TO HOLD A WEDDING?
Saturday is the most common day for celebrations. But according to astrologers, it is the least successful. After all, this day is patronized by Saturn - the planet of self-denial and self-restraint. Spouses who marry under the “blessing” of this planet must be prepared for complete dedication. If the newlyweds are not ready for such mutual concessions, the stars happy marriage not guaranteed. Reschedule the wedding for another day.
But not on Tuesday and Thursday! Their patrons Mars and Jupiter can bring a young family a lot of quarrels and misunderstandings, scandals and even betrayals.
Wednesday is ruled by Mercury. In principle, this day is favorable for a wedding. But only for those people who are guided in their actions by the arguments of reason, and relationships in a couple are subject to calculation. If you are emotional and burning with strong feelings, then over time Mercury will cool down and bring disappointment to the marriage.
Monday is the day of the moon. The most mysterious planet establishes a subtle emotional connection between spouses. But, unfortunately, it is as unstable as the lunar path on the surface of the water is unstable.
Friday and Sunday - perfect days marriage. All astrologers are unanimous in this. Friday is patronized by Venus - the planet of harmony and peace, and also the friend of all lovers. Sunday is under the control of the Sun. This means that any deed done on this day will bring joy.
