Haute couture for a royal wedding

Princess Iman walked down the aisle in a Dior gown, adorned with a lace veil and a Chaumet tiara. The couple exchanged vows and wedding rings, and Princess Iman outlined the terms of their marriage before signing the marriage contract. The bride’s father, King Abdullah II, and her two brothers, Crown Prince Hussein and Prince Hashem, were present.

The mother of the bride, Queen Rania, wore a Dior dress from the Fall 2022 collection. She watched the ceremony with great emotion from the front row, accompanied by her two sons, her youngest daughter Princess Salma, and Crown Prince Hussein’s Saudi fiancée, Rajwa Khaled bin Musaed bin Saif bin Abdulaziz Al Saif. Several members of the extended Jordanian royal family were also present, including Princess Raiyah and her husband, British writer Ned Donovan, grandson of Roald Dahl.

The festivities began earlier in the week with a traditional henna party, which Queen Rania also shared on Instagram with a short video showing the floral arrangements, curly chairs, cathedral candles and ceiling draped in light fabrics.

The princess’ wedding will not be the only celebration for the royal family this year, as Crown Prince Hussein is set to marry his fiancée, Rajwa Al-Saif, on June 1.
