Walima (Arabic: وليمة), or the marriage banquet, is one of the two traditional parts of an Islamic wedding. The walima is performed after the nikah, ( Arabic نكاح) or marriage ceremony. The word walima is derived from awlam, meaning to gather or assemble. It designates a feast in Arabic. Walima is used as a symbol to show domestic felicity in the household post-marriage.
Nishad and Yasmeen's Walima spared no expense. Amenities included a paan station, a full three piece qawali band, and a gorgeous stage. The atmosphere was lively and exuberant which shows in these photos.
