This photo essay was published in 2009 - but there is now a new photo essay taken in November 2011 - you will find the new wedding photographs HERE
The bride and groom were married a few months ago, but according to tradition, couldn't begin their life together until they'd celebrated properly with family and friends. The party took place at one of the wedding halls in the new city of Fez.
Si Mohamed with his sisters
Henna patterns on Hakima's hands
Si Mohamed ready for the ceremony
The bride and groom enter the hall - Hakima in a splendid silver dress and borne aloft on a silver wedding chair, and Si Mohamed on horseback
Guests are plied with a multitude of sweet cakes, mint tea and fruit juice ...
... and, of course, the wedding cake
Si Mohamed and Hakima start the dancing
There are several changes of costume for both ... blue
and lavender, in another wedding chair
a gold traditional wedding outfit
and green
and finally, a traditional western white dress
Everyone enjoys the party
The View from Fez wishes Si Mohamed and Hakima every happiness.

Nice pics. Long live to the married.
It is 'funny' to see that the bride is wearing a scarf though.
Mr.Reda,what is funny about a Muslim woman wearing a scarf, that's natural.Didn't you notice that her husband is growing a bread that might mean that his wife would be wearing hijab.
Why? In western countries the bride wears a veil. Is this "funny" too?
Great photographs. It makes me homesick for Fes. Fantastic blog. shukran sidi.
Lovely pics of a happy couple. Who cares if she wears a scarf. Such a silly comment to make. I wish them happiness and good health
Masha Allah, beautiful couple and family.
forget the scarf shes dancing infornt of me but if her husband dont care clearly the scarf means nothing ti them !
so what if she is wearing a scalf and dancing it has nothing to do with anyone else just pray that thay have a beautiful married life ameen
Masha Allah ! Some small minded people worry about scarf and dancing. They do not live in modern world. I hope they learn real truths soon.
OOOO Machallah! Allah ikammal bi alf khier! I love your dresses and wish I can wear them on my big day here in USA!! Lovely couple! All the happiness and congrats!
