Rouba & Samer’s Muslim Walima, or wedding reception, took place at the lovely London hotel, the Dorchester. The Dorchester is a classy hotel and was a fitting location for Rouba & Samer’s classy celebration. From the candles, to the beautifully adorned wedding cake, it was an affair with style. Our bride and groom made quite an entrance and their guests stopped everything they were doing to applaud the couple. Later, while the guests were seated for dinner, it was a good time for us to make our way around the room ensuring that we captured footage of all of Rouba and Samer’s wedding guests – we know it will be nice for them in years to come to look back and remember who was there for their big celebration. The hotel staff had prepared an exemplary meal which was well enjoyed (although we generally avoid filming people while they are eating – it makes them uncomfortable!).

When our newlyweds took to the floor for their first dance, they swayed to the live music and looked deeply in each other’s eyes. We filmed this part in black & white to give it some old Hollywood glamour! Afterwards, they cut the wedding cake to the accompanying flash of cameras. Rouba and Samer were radiant throughout the event and we hope they enjoy reliving the memories of their Walima for years to come.
