The Stunning Attire: Two Breathtaking Outfit Changes



Anna and Anas truly embraced their cultural fusion with two beautiful outfit changes that reflected both their personal journeys and the traditions they hold dear.

For the ceremony, Anna, who recently embraced Islam, wore a stunning Asian-inspired sari. This pastel-colored sari was adorned with intricate embellishments, blending delicate artistry with a nod to her new faith. The embellishments sparkled against the backdrop of Walton Hall’s timeless elegance. Anas complemented her with a sophisticated suit, offering a modern and refined look that paired perfectly with the grandeur of the day.

The Traditional Sudanese Ceremony: A Joyful Celebration


A standout moment from Anna and Anas' wedding was the vibrant traditional Sudanese Jirtig ceremony, which beautifully contrasted with the classic elegance of Walton Hall's architecture. Dressed in striking red-and-gold Sudanese attire, the couple participated in the joyful ritual filled with music, clapping, and prayers for their future.


As family members adorned them with symbolic accessories and performed blessings, the rich colours and lively energy of the ceremony created a stunning juxtaposition against the timeless grandeur of the historic venue, merging tradition and heritage with old-world elegance.
