Wedding season is coming to an end. It's fair to say that it's been bittersweet.
We've all been subjected to countless a'abeliks, dramatic gossip sessions and buzzing ears. But sometimes you find yourself more than a little teary eyed watching a father-daughter dance, and sometimes you're on cloud nine as your best friend rocks that gorgeous bridal gown in the middle of the dance floor – how can someone look so down-to-earth and elegant at the same time? – and you realize that it was all worth it.
If you, like me, found your summer saturated with weddings, to the point where you planned three whole months around those crazy festivities, then you will relate to these 12 hilarious things:
1. Arab weddings: putting the world's biggest festivals to shame with their size, one party at a time
2. And everyone seems to be thinking about brides... not just the one in the white dress
3. Moms, dads, grandparents... everyone's got one thing on their minds
4. Because is it really an Arab wedding if a stranger doesn't "ask" about you?
5. You realize that your greatest dance teacher is actually... your grandpa
6. Especially when this one song comes on!
7. Arabs need so little to get their inner groove on
8. Then the wedding photographer snaps a picture at the worst possible moment
9. You snap a few yourself...if you can keep up with all the action
10. Arab weddings are kinda polarizing
11. You're just going to have to accept that things like this are going to happen
12. And there's that really sober moment when you're thinking about all the refugees that could have been helped with the $$ spent on the wedding.
