What a blur of excitement this last week has been! We covered Hashim and Mehvish’s perfect wedding in Toronto starting from their Nikaah, to Mayoun, to Mehndi, to Shaadi and finally Valima. It was all a perfect mélange of colors, music, ceremonies, and immaculate Urdu (the language of choice for MCs on all days) we haven’t heard since our Grade 12 final exams in Pakistan.
Mehvish had been in Dubai till about a few weeks ago and so our point of contact had mostly been Hashim and Mehvish’s brother Faraz on her side. We met Mehvish for the first time at the wedding, and she is the cutest, shyest, most sweetest bride on this planet ever! She was so nervous and shy that when we asked her to look at Hashim for one of the portrait shots, she couldn’t for more than a few seconds and had to look away all red in the face! As the days went by, she opened up with us, and with some guidance she was rocking the pictures in no time.
Hashim, Mehvish, congratulations to both of you and your families once again, and we wish you a very long, happy, prosperous life together Insha’Allah. May you stay forever smiling. Aameen!
