Khalid & Shahana: Wedding Part 1

The morning started with Shahana getting ready at Suman’s in Abbotsford.

She was given a lime with a pin in it and a dot behind her ear, to ward off the evil eye – which she explained to me, was to prevent others from being jealous of her on this day. Something I should likely have on a daily basis…. kidding.

The Ceremony was held at the Ismaili Jamatkhana. Seeing as my church meets in gym… this mosque was worlds away from my house of praise!!! You’ll see a photo near the end this post of the outside…. GORGEOUS!!!

Khalid’s mother washes their feet with holy water.

Traditionally, whomever smashes it first is the head of the household. I think I’d gain weight before my wedding to boost my chances…

The exit…

We spent some time around the courtyard of the mosque. So darn gorgeous. Them.. and the location.

Shahana & Khalid, part 2 is only days away!
