Very Hollywood, Beautiful and impress jewels!
ردحذفDo you mean Bollywood?
حذف@12:01 NO!
حذفWhat in the world is Hollywood about it?
حذفShe's marrying her first cousin? In the 21st century? This is so surreal...
ردحذفWhere I am from, we marry our first cousins too. Cultures differ.
حذفIt's pretty common in the Muslim countries.
حذفTake a look at their Wikipedia entries - quite some eye openers. The Princess’ dad (one of the world’s very richest people, hence the enormous jewels on the bride) also married his first cousin. Most interesting, the Princess’ job is listed as polo player!
حذفits more common in many non western cultures around the world. many tribes in Africa do this. Many reasons but one of them is to keep wealth within the family

You risk your family tree being a circle. My cousin is a surgeon in a famous specialist clinic and they treat an obscene amount of people from those countries with severe hereditary diseases. This is so avoidable.
حذفApart from that, I will never ever accept the “rule” for Muslim women to need to cover their head. Iranian woman show their opposition and risk their lives by showing their hair.
Resistance!

unfortunately that is a genetically very dangerous habit. RH

حذفI could not agree with you more! I really wonder if there will EVER be a time when females/girls/women will not be second class citizens on this planet. Religion or not!

Agree with Emmy and Europa!
حذفi never thought a tiara on a veil would work, but what do you know the bride looks amazing! Its good to see life from the perspective of other cultures.
ردحذفQue de magnifiques photos très colorées avec les bijoux de sortie surtout les diamants ; j'aimerais bien voir de plus près le bouquet de la mariée qui est très belle ainsi que son époux !
ردحذفHasta que salgan hijos tontos. Esto es lujo y no lo de Occidente. La novia se ve fantástica.
ردحذفCarla, what a rude comment ( about the children)
حذفMaybe Carla could have said it in a more polite way, but what she says is true. I agree with the other comments concerning this subject.
حذفVery interesting. Both dresses are modest with their long sleeves and high necklines, but they certainly hug her curves. I don’t love the colour of either dress - the first looks to be a grey/white which reads a bit grubby on my screen, the second is a rather drab grey. Nevertheless the jewels are very striking, and she looks very happy. Can anyone see her bouquet clearly? Is it jewelled as well?
ردحذفI wonder if the groom has some eye problems. He’s squinting severely in all of the photos. (V.M.)
No he is not squinting, you are being to critical on all counts. Maybe he does not have large eyes. Even if he has small eyes he has lots of millions so who cares. He looks very handsome!
حذفI think his eyebrows being so thick, and the shaping of them, are contributing to the overall look of the eyes, not that there is anything wrong with them. I don't see the comment as being highly critical, just an obvious concern due to the nature of the generations of inbreeding. I don't know who's father he is, but the gentleman seen in the 9th and 12th pictures has something wrong with his legs. He looks a little knock kneed, which may or may not be a congenital issue. I think it is reasonable to question the health of this family due to its intermarriages. Don't forget about the Hapsburg jaw.
حذفThe bride is beautiful and her gowns and the tiara, earrings and necklace are magnificent.
ردحذفAgree with your comments, Debra. I think both gowns are beautiful and the jewels, especially that necklace, are absolutely stunning. Love her smile in photo #4!
حذفMarrid cousin? - OMG wwhy this cultur has so many people with mental illnes....
ردحذفThe bride looks exquisite, both gowns are beautiful, I particularly love the grey gown, gorgeous.
ردحذفBoth gowns are stunning, A beautiful young women. The jewels are to die for, not literally, but impressive none at less. css
ردحذفMake up is too heavy. Not impressed, she’s prettier usually, but not at her wedding.
ردحذفCl.
Is the Sultans wife a Sultana ?Such a beautiful dress worn by the Princess, The Prince also looks good. I do like the carpet in the 4th photo (Tara)

حذفFirst cousins are allowed to marry in many western countries. Also in Sweden.
ردحذف@ Anonymous 18/1 08.54 Maybe in Sweden, but I think in most western countries people are aware of the danger and don't take such risks. We are not living in the middle ages any more.
حذفMarrying a first cousin is allowed and, unless there are proven genetic defects in the family, it's not that dangerous. The problem is that in these families, consanguineous marriage is the usual practice that occurs over and over again (it is called endogamy). This exponentially increases the risk of transmission of genetic diseases. The example given by Anonymous 18/1/23 07:56 referring to the Spanish Habsburgs is extreme but gives a good idea. In this dynasty they married not only between cousins but also, horror, between uncle and nephew and the final result was their extinction precisely because of genetic defects.
ردحذفShe look very exquisite, both gowns are stunning & beautiful also her tiara is beautiful. I love the whole look
