Farah Weds Shadman
Shadman and Farah may have been introduced to one another through mutual friends, but the bond they developed thereafter made them inseparable. One and a half years after they first met, an engagement followed.

With about six months to plan the wedding, Farah decided to manage without a professional consultant. It seemed easy at first, but as the wedding date drew closer, the pace picked up and Shadman and their friends were asked to provide additional help.
The Hilton Atlanta was large enough to accommodate the entire wedding party, and so the venue was the first choice. Celebrations began with the mehndi (rasm-e-henna) ceremony. Decorative lanterns atop tables, colorful tablecloths and shimmering gold, green, purple and pink accents on the canopy and stage added a vibrant splash of glamour.
The wedding ceremony began in the morning and was held at the local mosque. It was a simple, traditional affair, but not without the characteristic beauty of a wedding. Whites and golds in the ensembles, with bold red highlights from floral garlands made for perfect wedding pictures.
At the reception, guests were welcomed to the dazzling sight of gold, red and white. Floral centerpieces, dangling crystals, and ornate pillars made for a grand sight. An elaborate stage, complete with large golden doors and uplights were breathtaking. Handmade programs and a smartphone app allowed all guests to capture and upload their favorite moments truly making the occasion a standout.
Farah chose some of the industry’s best wedding vendors. Peter Nguyen Photography provided excellence, capturing perfect angles and expressions each time. He also managed to allow for all poses and moments that Farah explained she wanted. Noorface built tastefully on Farah’s existing beauty, and ensured she was every bit the resplendent bride.
No wedding comes without anxiety and sleeplessness. But ask Farah, and she will immediately tell you that none of it is really worth wasting all your energy, since the day will have come and gone before you know it, and you will have missed all the fun and excitement. Live each moment to its fullest, and it will gift you a lifetime of memories.
