I cam across this post looking up “milka.” I’m about to marry a Saudi gent, if the documentary hasn’t been made already !

PS Great work clarifying the different stages of courtship, masha Allah. I was really happy to read this, because aside from my beloved and his family, most Saudis I speak to don’t speak enough English to explain it, and I speak even less Arabic :p!

[...] with outsiders. As a photographer, I do end up in quite a few weddings, so I thought I’d add to Qusay’s great commentary and provide a visual of what happens at a Saudi wedding. MENS’ SIDE ONLY though, [...]

Thanks for the explanations about what really happens when people get married here in KSA.
As far as filming a documentary about the Saudi marriage process, I seriously doubt that they would be able to find 10 couples (heck, I doubt they could find even one couple!) here who would be willing to appear on camera for the duration of a project like that. Considering that most Saudi women wear niqab out in public, and then what they wear to the milka and the wedding, there is no way that a camera would be allowed inside anyway. Dream on.

Applause! This is a really GREAT post. I just returned from KSA 3 days ago after conducting umrah and I got very interested on the Saudi culture, which seems very confidential. I browsed for some information on how the people in Saudi get married and you helped a lot. I gained a lot of information which comes from local citizens through your blog. Please keep posting cultural matters regarding Saudi, since that would help many to understand more of the Saudi culture. Thanks again!
