Royal Wedding Extravaganza: Jordan’s Crown Princess Stuns in Ali Saab Gown

Amman witnessed a fairytale wedding as the new crown princess of Jordan, Rajwan al-Hussein, tied the knot with Crown Prince Hussein bin Abdullah II on Thursday.

The elegant bride, formerly known as Rajwa al-Saif, graced the occasion in a mesmerizing white gown crafted by the renowned Lebanese designer, Ali Saab.

The exquisite full-sleeved gown was adorned with a striking veil that cascaded several meters behind her, while the neckline exuded sophistication with its graceful draping.

Completing her regal ensemble, she wore a dazzling tiara, matching diamond earrings, white strappy shoes, and held a bouquet of pristine white flowers.

Drawing comparisons to another royal wedding, the spotlight shifted to Meghan Markle's infamous Givenchy dress worn during her nuptials to Prince Harry on May 19, 2018.

The anticipation surrounding Meghan's dress choice was palpable, but as she emerged from the car, a moment of awkward silence ensued.

Critics were quick to express their disappointment, deeming her attire lackluster and ill-fitted.

Speculations even arose about her choice to forgo proper undergarments, casting a shadow over the grand event watched by millions worldwide.

Adding fuel to the fire, pop sensation Katy Perry's scathing comments on Meghan's attire resurfaced from a past interview, where she suggested the need for additional fittings.

Perry contrasted Meghan's outfit with the timeless elegance of Kate Middleton's lace Alexander McQueen dress from 2011, declaring Kate as the ultimate victor in the fashion stakes.

The singer's candid remarks stirred controversy, underscoring the intense scrutiny faced by royal brides on their big day.

In a nod to tradition, the Crown Prince of Jordan paid homage to his heritage by donning a suit inspired by the regal attire worn by King Abdullah II at his own wedding in 1993.

The suit's design echoed the sartorial preferences of both King Abdullah II and King Abdullah I, embodying a sense of continuity within the royal family.

The choice of attire for the Prince had been a subject of speculation for weeks, with luxury labels like Dior and Bruce Oldfield being considered, alongside British designer Sarah Burton.

Among the distinguished guests at the royal affair was the UK's Princess of Wales, who captivated onlookers in an exquisite Ellie Saab gown from the brand's fall-winter 2017 Couture collection.

The ethereal pastel gown featured intricate embroidery, lace detailing, and billowing bell-shaped sleeves, epitomizing grace and sophistication.

Prior to the grand ceremony, the bride honored her Saudi heritage during her henna night by donning a custom-made gown by Saudi designer Haida Sarafi.

Inspired by the traditional al-Shaabi thobe from the Nah region in Saudi Arabia, the gown seamlessly blended cultural elements with modern elegance, symbolizing the enduring legacy of the royal union.
