Persian Weddings
Overwhelmed with the amount of detail that goes into planning your Sofreh?
Want all the traditional elements infused with your personality, taste and style?
Need help sorting through the details of your day?
“Sofreh”: The word for a cloth spread on the floor; used to either serve food on or for the display of the arrangements and symbols of the Persian Wedding (Aghd) and New Year (Norooz) ceremonies.
As with all cultural weddings, the delights of a Persian Princess’s affair add an additional level of complexity to the average wedding planning. Each Sofreh Aghd is handcrafted with your style, taste and personality in mind.
A reflection of you as a couple, your sofreh includes all the traditional items with your personality and style. A personal and customized spread is designed to fulfill your wildest imagination. Incorporate sentimental items, your favorite flowers, or antiques from your grandmother. Your couture sofreh design is as unique as you.
