Still i think Ali also does not look very happy with his new wife. But I hope they will get very happy.

Kids will be cominge soon also right? because she is already pretty old.

I'm curious when hamzah is going to have his first baby.
I didn't see his wife bye the way?

why isn't Noor Pregnant?! I thought Someone said she was as she had put on some weight ?

Thanks for the photos.

I think everybody, except for Rania in her designer below the knee dress, is dressed elegantly and right. But I applaud Rania for letting it be the bride's day. Haya was a delight in hair and dress (comparison to the last photo of her). Nice to see her and Mo there. Wish Queen Noor and Princess Noor were there.

To Me, Prince Ali and Princess Rym appear happy, but nervous. This may explain the few smiles. I love her dress.

Does Abdullah have a big say in this?

it was prince Ali and P. rym desire not to make a big party, so king abdullah distributed foods to poor people instead.

yes it is, but there are more beautiful designs for the circassian dress, i think it is old design.

About Rym's dress (please forgive my ignorance here), I have read in this thread that it is a traditional Circassian dress -- what does this mean exactly and is it possible that this dress also have a designer?

part of jordan people are circassian and they have their traditional dress, i see the circassian girls wear that dress but more beautiful than the princess rym's , very similar but few differences like shorter sleeves , different top part - may be simpler (rym's dress top part was hidden behind the scarf so i did not see it well). i did not mean that it has a designer but i meant by old design that the traditional dresses change with time - not major changes-, but the traditional dresses worn now is different than that before 100 years which is different than before 200 yeas, every generation add new touch ,like the colors, the fabrics..., that why i suggested that rym's might be the basic design , don't know , I could be wrong i just felt like that, there could be many shapes of the dress.

a picture of circassian dress is in this thread:

Rym Brahimi is a spitting image of her father ,the same skinny long face and dark hair,and her i guess younger brother,who's kneeling looks like her twin brother.She seems sort of pretty ,she's got a nice figure.
Her older bro on the left standing looks like their
mother.
BTW her mum doesn't look Arabic,is she from the US??

[sommone]

Rym's mother is croatian.

I don't understand what the big deal is about Rym's age, really...Maybe because I'm looking at from a late 20 something/almost 30 in a couple of years, or maybe because many of you are barely out of your teens, I don't know. I know there are woman her age or older that still do not have children. Thirty-four is not old at all. Let them enjoy being married before the prospect of having children. Maybe it's my eyes, but all of the recent pictures I have come across with Ali and Rym in them together, they look really happy. I guess it's all in the eyes or something.
