It's not uncommon for Pakistani and Indian weddings to last several days. Several events culminate to the Shaadi which is concluded in Muslim weddings with the Walima. So the order typically goes like this: Mayoon, Mehndi, Shaadi, Walima. I had the pleasure of photographing all four events for Javeria and Ahad in South Florida.
This is the Mayoon - Perhaps the smallest of the four events, but also the most intimate where family get an opportunity to give their blessings (Rasms) and do various preparations.
