The View from Fez was privileged to attend the wedding of Si Mohamed and Hakima. Tom Fakler took the photographs.
The bride and groom were married a few months ago, but according to tradition, couldn't begin their life together until they'd celebrated properly with family and friends. The party took place at one of the wedding halls in the new city of Fez.
