the design
Feryal and Deen’s wedding was a breathtaking celebration that seamlessly blended modern elegance, Afghan traditions, and their unique love story. Held at the luxurious Pendry in Newport Coast, the event reflected their shared vision of a joyous, unforgettable occasion free from traditional constraints. Every detail, from the décor to the entertainment, was thoughtfully curated to create an experience as dazzling as their coast-to-coast romance.
The reception was a masterpiece of design and sophistication. Lush floral arrangements by Square Root Designs featuring Tibet Roses, Phalaenopsis Orchids, and other exquisite blooms were artfully displayed without greenery, keeping the focus on their beauty. Details by Haleh used crystals, mirrors, and cascading curtains to add a Hollywood flair, while a mirrored dance floor and dramatic lighting transformed the venue into a dreamscape. Guests dined on an indulgent surf-and-turf dinner of steak and lobster, paired with a fiery belly dance performance, and late-night snacks ensured the celebration continued into the night.
getting ready
Sipping champagne in a robe that's bigger than a grand piano and mid-day balcony cigars is such a vibe, and we're living for it! We almost didn't even notice their fur baby curled up in the layers of tulle–ICONIC!
cocktail hour
The festivities began with an outdoor cocktail hour, where an exclusive guest list enjoyed signature drinks—Deen’s “Dirty Deed Martini” and Feryal’s “Fiery & Feisty Margarita”—accompanied by live acoustic guitar. Guests then entered the reception through a dramatic tunnel featuring burlesque-style dancers and champagne-bearing waiters, setting the tone for the extraordinary evening ahead.
the fashion
Feryal stunned with four outfit changes, each more dazzling than the last. Starting with a traditional ensemble, she transitioned into sleek, modern looks, including a crystal-encrusted mini dress with dramatic feathered sleeves. Deen complemented her with his own series of custom-designed outfits, including an AI-inspired suit and a silver velvet jacket, making the couple as striking as red carpet icons.
the entertainment
Entertainment was a highlight of the evening, featuring a surprise performance by international Persian music star Andy. The evening’s atmosphere evolved with a show-stopping light display, marking the shift from elegant dinner to an all-night celebration.
