FOR PERSIANS, MARRIAGE IS AN EVENT WHICH MUST BE CELEBRATED NOT QUIETLY BUT WITH GLORY AND DISTINCTION
Persian Weddings
Persian weddings honour family traditions while elevating beauty, love, and nature. Family and friends come together to celebrate the happy couple through traditions that are practiced today that date back to the Zoroastrian period.
This celebration is made up of two parts, the Aghd (ceremony) and the reception. The Aghd is the legal part of the ceremony, where the couple exchange vows and are officially united in marriage by law. This part of the wedding includes one of the most beautiful elements of the Persian culture, the Sofreh Aghd. Sofreh Aghd is perhaps the most important part of a traditional Persian wedding, where the culture and tradtions are displayed through an elegant spread of symbolic items.
