day one began with a nikah ceremony, a muslim ceremony that joined umar & brieana as husband and wife.  after the traditional ceremony, we joined family members from pakistan, australia, and across the united states for an amazing traditional pakistani dinner.

day two was much more american.  we spent the day at the morton arboretum with umar & brieana as they strolled together through the gardens.  after a short wedding ceremony, they ate, drank, and danced the night away.  what an amazing two days.  enjoy.
