Natasha & Wisam - Muslim Wedding in Dubai

I know the title doesn't sound real, but nothing about this wedding felt real, starting with the location for the ceremony, a garden in downtown Dubai! You can see Burj Khalifa - the tallest building on the face of the planet - in the upper right corner:

Everything takes place after sunset, when the temperature goes down to a cooling 35 degrees Celsius (95 Fahrenheit). The actual ceremony is very short, as usual and Wisam is congratulated by the priest:
And he welcomes his bride:
Laard Bazaar (Laad Bazaar) is a very old market popular for bangles, located in Hyderabad, India:

Every guest has received a little bag with rupees and they are invited to practice their bargaining skills:
Guess who's the most aggressive shopper as soon as the market is open:

Just like Cinderella, around midnight, we're fleeing the location with the newly weds for a short photo shoot in one of the most amazing indoor locations imaginable:
The Atlantis Resort on Palm Jumeirah Island:
The next day, we're getting ready for the reception at Madinat Jumeirah. The bathroom in the nuptial suite is bigger than my living room! Fancier, too:
I don't even know what to compare the bedroom with! It's just ridiculous! And this is just one of the 2 bedrooms:
The sun set already, but we manage to get some pictures on the beach before it gets dark. I'm sure you haven't seen this episode of Baywatch:
I know what you must think right now! You're thinking I hate my job. Well, you're wrong! I love it:
And yes, that's the 321 meter high Burj Al Arab - the only 7 star hotel in the world:
Madinat Jumeirah really is a magnificent place! Outside:
And inside:
The reception hall:

The grand entrance:
A pop quiz with Husna and Salif:
And the shoe game with a twist. You can actually see the twist at the tip of the shoes:
Natasha wanted a photo booth and I'm so happy for my first opportunity to do one:
Ioana is in charge with this part.

She got some killer shots:
I've seen this one 20 times already and I've laughed out loud every time:
Congratulations Natasha and Wisam! It looks like you'll have a very happy married life:

Thank you so much for flying us to Dubai to be a part of your incredible wedding! This is all I have to say, I mean I'm speechless:
