A note from us
Ahmed and Fatima, together with Hassan and Nadia, request the pleasure of your company at the marriage of their children.
We have spent five years making a life out of small ordinary days — the market on Fridays, the same corner table, the long drive to the coast in August.
We would like to spend one extraordinary one with you.
Mayar & Mohamed
How we got here
March 2021
A queue at the wrong counter
Mohamed was in the wrong line at the passport office. Mayar was in the right one and told him so. He stayed anyway.
2022 — 2025
The coast, every August
Four summers, the same stretch of water, an increasingly serious argument about the correct way to make coffee.
December 2025
A question, badly hidden
The ring had been in a drawer for four months. Mayar had found it in week two and said nothing.

Seven years of being told about each other, and finally a date. We would not miss it.

Sorry to miss it from Berlin — save me a slice and send photographs.

Questions
Can I bring someone?
If your invitation names a guest, absolutely. If it does not, we are at the edge of the room and we are sorry.
Are children welcome?
Yes, all evening. There is a quiet room off the courtyard if anyone needs it.
Is there parking?
Yes, on the river side. It fills up by half past six.
See you in August
Thank you for being part of this.
