My little sister got married last month:) So lets blog about it.
A Guy liked my sister last year - goes to Yemen to finish Hifz and learn Arabic. They keep in contact via facebook and sms. Comes back on a Wednesday. Comes home that night with an informal proposal. Says he wants to marry her in October and go back to Yemen. So we chat about it - figure why wait and prolong the inevitable - she was happy, he was a good guy. So we got them married a week later.
Now, to plan a wedding in a week is hectic. Luckily my dad is in the event coordination business so we didnt need to book anything. Alhumdullilah, it went very well, and they are very happy together - at the moment they are staying in a flat near spur but will go to Yemen after Ramadan. I think Yemen sucks so I wont visit them, however, they plan to move to Dubai next September so thats when i'l drop in :)
Heres some pics from the wedding

Dad outdid himself with the stage
Not to mention the Ceiling - The sides of the hall were draped and we had lights hitting mirrors on each table

Big Sister and I very teary eyed after 'we gave the little one away (notice the tissues and bloodshot eyes. I dont usually cry - It a very rare thing. Even when I saw my sister hug everyone I just smiled and waited my turn. Until I held her and then I just broke down. I know everyone in the hall was like Woah! I guess it all happened so fast that it only struck me then.
