The 28-year-old crown prince and his 29-year-old bride got engaged in August last year.
Jordan was filled with joy and celebration as Crown Prince Hussein married Saudi architect Rajwa Al Saif in a grand royal wedding. The beautiful ceremony took place at Zahran Palace in Amman, the same historic venue where King Abdullah II and Queen Rania were married in 1993.
The 28-year-old crown prince and his 29-year-old bride got engaged in August last year. Once Crown Prince Hussein becomes king, Rajwa will be the queen of Jordan.
Rajwa looked stunning in a custom gown designed by Elie Saab, while Queen Rania wore an elegant outfit by Dior. The ceremony was attended by around 140 guests, including many international royals and dignitaries such as Prince William and Princess Kate from the United Kingdom, US First Lady Jill Biden, Qatar’s Sheikha Moza, and the kings and queens of Malaysia and the Netherlands.
The wedding was officiated by Dr. Ahmed Al-Khalaileh, Imam of the Royal Hashemite Court, who led the signing of the marriage contract. Rajwa was escorted to the ceremony by Prince Hussein’s younger siblings, Prince Hashem and Princess Salma.
After the ceremony, the royal couple left for their reception in a classic 1984 Range Rover. Their arrival was marked with music from the Jordan Armed Forces Band. The evening featured performances by Jordanian and regional singers, a choir, traditional folk dancers, and the national orchestra, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.
The celebrations ended with the bride and groom cutting their wedding cake, as family, friends, and guests cheered, marking the beginning of a new royal chapter in Jordan’s history.
