Traditional Persian Ceremony Accessory Table

“The centerpiece was the sofreh aghd (Persian wedding ceremony spread). It is made up of symbolic items, which represent the couple’s new life and marriage together,” says Soosan. “This sofreh was the most special part of the wedding because my mother handpicked and created all the items on the spread, which took months to prepare.”
