Social media users in Egypt were surprised by a strange video that defies the norms associated with wedding ceremonies and rituals, revealing a bride who carries her groom—a incident that sparked both admiration and controversy. The video garnered significant interaction, racking up hundreds of thousands of views on social media platforms, with a few comments being derogatory, but most were encouraging and supportive.
The bride, Nada Hatem, revealed that she was celebrating her first wedding anniversary with her husband, rather than their wedding ceremony. This marriage followed a love story that lasted four years, and they agreed to capture their celebration as if they were still newlyweds.
Nada explained that the incident was spontaneous and not planned; she was joking during the shoot and playfully told the photographer, "Carry," saying it completely without thinking. She was surprised when the photographer encouraged her to go ahead if she could.
She continued that she picked her husband up as a playful act since they often joke with each other in this manner at home. The next day, she discovered that the video had gone viral, attracting a multitude of views and receiving numerous messages on her Facebook page, all filled with surprise and amazement. She responded by saying, "Is it proper for someone to leave a love as deep as his on the ground?"
Nada expressed that her husband deserves to be treated with the utmost care, voicing her discontent with some of the abusive and derogatory comments aimed at her, which attempted to diminish her joy. However, she chose to ignore these remarks after receiving additional encouraging and uplifting messages from Arab and Gulf citizens, which compensated for the sadness caused by the bullying.
