Upon arriving at the wedding, the royal couple from England receive a warm welcome from King Abdullah II and Queen Rania of Jordan.

Other royal families from around the world also join the wedding, including Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, Princess Victoria of Sweden, Princess Hisako of Japan, Crown Prince Haakon of Norway, King Philippe of Belgium, and the King and Queen of the Netherlands.

Surprisingly, Princess Beatrice, William’s cousin, is also a guest at the wedding. She wears a light blue sequined dress while attending the ceremony with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

The wedding ceremony of Crown Prince Hussein begins with the arrival of King Abdullah II and Queen Rania, followed by the prince himself. Meanwhile, Rajwa Alseif is chauffeured to the palace in a 1968 Rolls-Royce Phantom V, specially produced for the late Queen Zein al-Sharaf, the grandmother of Crown Prince Hussein. This same car was previously used by Prince Charles III and Queen Camilla (when they were the Prince and Duchess of Wales) during their visit to Jordan in November 2021.

Hussein’s younger brother, Prince Hashem, escorts the bride to the ceremonial hall to perform the Islamic marriage rites. There, Hussein and Alseif exchange marriage vows in the presence of two witnesses and 140 guests. After the ceremony, the newlyweds drive a Range Rover to Al Husseiniya Palace to host a reception for 1,700 guests.

A week before the wedding, Queen Rania hosted a party for the bride, attended by hundreds of female guests. In her speech during the celebration, Queen Rania praised the bride, calling her the perfect fiancée for her son, Crown Prince Hussein.
