While we were all busy discussing the engagements and relationships of the who’s who of Lollywood, somewhere on the internet a lone wedding card surfaced. Hamza Ali Abbasi and Naimal Khawar’s wedding card created a frenzy all over the internet. Some people were heartbroken, some happy but everyone was shocked.
Hamza then came forward with a lengthy Facebook post in which he confirmed the news. He said that he’d been friends with Naimal for the past 2 years but only recently had Allah put it in his heart to ask her hand in marriage and she’d agreed. He also admitted that his purpose for going through with the wedding was only to make Allah happy and there had been no prior relationship between the two.
Yesterday, the couple’s nikkah took place and here’s what all went down.
All White Everything
The couple chose to have a simple nikkah which will be followed by a walima. The nikkah took place at Monal, Islamabad. The setup was very intimate, the theme was white and Hamza and Naimal got married amongst friends and family. The event was beautifully managed by Arij Innovations.
