Another standout detail was the painter who was present throughout the wedding, capturing the special moment in real time. This was a surprise from Menna’s best friends, who knew how much she had wanted to book a painter but had been unable to find one.

The Nour Azazy gown was handmade with imported fabric from India and took 6 months to finish! Menna wanted to highlight her hijab and modest look, and Nour Azazy respected her idea and made the perfect gown for her.

“It was my dream dress, and it made me proud to wear my full hijab at my wedding instead of showing all my hair.”

The Venue

The couple celebrated their wedding at the JW Marriott in Cairo, and Menna says that it was the perfect venue for her. An outdoor venue was crucial to her, and she wanted the food and service to be perfect, which the venue provided.

Advice

Menna’s words of wisdom to future brides: Seek help!

“Brides always think they need to handle everything on their own, but trust me, that’s not the case” Menna learned that it’s important to have a couple of trusted friends and delegate tasks to make the planning process smoother and more enjoyable. “My bridesmaids are the ones to thank for making the whole experience a perfect dream come true, so lean on your girls and don’t forget to be kind to yourself.”
