The Milad

The milad is the first event that takes place at a Pakistani wedding. This event is for women only where women from both sides come together to offer prayers and blessings to the new bride. Islamic chants are performed and all the women come together and pray for the the couple.

The bride is dressed quite simply, and as a guest one should dress simply too. To a milad, I would opt to wear an outfit with pastels rather than go for something dark and loud as it will take away from the entire aesthetic.

This is the brides entrance to her Milad.

After the prayers are over, the men will come and join the women for dinner.

  1. WOW! I have only seen Pakistani weddings in Bollywood movies and the only thing I ever knew about this wedding is ‘Kabul Hai’. Always wondered and wanted to know more about Pakistani weddings. The videos you have uploaded really makes me feels like I have been there.
