The core component of a Muslim ceremony is the Nikah. It’s an Islamic marriage ceremony where the couple signs a marriage contract. It begins with a reading from the Quran or a brief sermon, including reminders of the significance of marriage in Islam. When it comes time to sign the contract, the bride's father or male relative, two Muslim witnesses, and an imam or Muslim officiant must be present. When the pen touches the paper, and they both recite “I do” or “Qubool” three times of their own free will, they are officially considered married. During the Nikah, it’s not uncommon for Muslim brides and grooms to be separated by translucent cloth or a stunning floral wall.
