When Hassan Abouelrouss said he takes fun seriously, he truly meant it because this wedding was held at ZED Park. Yes, the amusement park. It had bike stunts, clown entertainers, and a fake lion head! We were mind-blown by the carnival-themed tux and the wedding dress by Maison Farah Wali, which perfectly fit the event.

2. Marwan Younis and Hend Hassan

This wedding looked like a smaller scale party from The Great Gatsby with its unique 1920s theme. It was supposed to be a small wedding with only family and close friends, but it was filled with surprises! The biggest of which was Tamer Hosny’s appearance at the wedding, which featured a beautiful performance as a gift for the newlyweds. Dr Alfons, Johara, Hassan Shakoush, and El Sawarikh also performed for the guests and helped make the night extra special.

3. Mohamed Farrag and Passant Shawky

All weddings tend to get us emotional, and seeing Mohamed Farrag with his beautiful wife, Passant Shawky, on that bicycle heading to their wedding made us want to bike our way down the aisle as well. The simple, chic wedding was held at the JW Marriott, and of course, many of our favourite celebrities were there to get the party started, such as Hannah El Zahed, Ahmed Malek, Asser Yassin, and many more.

4. Abeya El Sheem and Omar Magdy

Who doesn’t love a beach wedding? Egyptian director Kamla Abo Zekri’s daughter, Abeya El Sheemy, married Omar Magdy in the coastal town of Gouna at a gorgeous beach venue. We want to take a minute to talk about the Salma Osman wedding dress and how chic and fitting it was for the wedding. The event was attended by many stars, including Nelly Karim, Dorra, Hala Sedky, and Khaled El Nabawy.

Daughter of Egyptian actress Ola Ghanem, Kamilia Eldefrawy, married Mano Ragab at a picturesque wedding in Ola Gahem’s hometown near Alexandria. Eldefrawy depicted a real-life princess walking down the aisle in her poofy dress and shiny tiara.

Singer and guitarist Hany Adel had a small, romantic wedding by the sea in Dahab earlier this year, marrying the Lebanese actress and director Diamand Abo Abboud. What really moved us when these two got to say “I Do” was Adel’s caption on their wedding picture on Instagram saying that no one was able to fix his heart except for her.

7. Amany Kamal and Adel Khaled

Egyptian actress Amany Kamal got married after a 13-year love story. The bride and groom tried to keep their wedding low-key, so not many pictures of the event were posted online, but what we know is that they are both living their ‘happily ever after’!                                   

8. Dina Dash and Mahmoud Osman

The dance for the entrance, the cute wedding dress, and how Dina Dash met Mahmoud Osman had everyone talking on social media. After being together for 11 years, they finally tied the knot in a ceremony, which made it clear why all the guests started tearing up when they danced to Bruno Mars’ “The Rest of My Life”.

9. Hager Ahmed and Ahmed El Haddad

The stunning Hager Ahmed got married to the founder of Voss Exotics, Ahmed El Haddad. We loved everything about Hager’s wedding look that had her donning an elegant Zuhair Murad gown. It created the perfect silhouette for her figure, and the simple yet extremely flattering makeup was done by none other than Aya Abdel Hamid. Tamer Hosny, who is by now the cupid of weddings, was also part of this celebration and performed a few of his famous love songs.                                                                                                                                               

10. Eyad Amar and Sara

Moustafa Amar’s son, Eyad, married his beautiful bride Sara at an extravagant event attended by stars such as Tamer Hosny, Ehab Tawfik, Mohamed Hamaky, and Mohamed Mounir, who also performed at the wedding. Moustafa Amar posted a glimpse of the event on his Instagram, and it will have you reaching for the tissues.

The gorgeous Nelly Karim finally tied the knot with the ever so handsome Hisham Ashour. The perfect couple celebrated their love on the North Coast by the beach, and people were tracking everything happening at the wedding minute by minute, thanks to social media. We should add that the two wedding dresses worn by Nelly Karim that night had us all speechless in all the right ways. Of course, many celebrities were there, such as Amr Diab, Ahmed al-Sakka, and May Selim.
