      Queen Rania of Jordan shared a glimpse of her family’s 2023 summer break.
      Taking some much-needed time off, the Royal Family of Jordan are spending their summer together. Queen Rania, who was away from social media for most of August, shared a few pictures with King Abdulla II of Jordan and her two younger kids, Prince Hashem and Princess Salma.
      It has been a busy year for the Jordanian Royal family. The year began with the King and Queen’s oldest daughter, Princess Iman’s grand wedding to Jameel Alexander Thermiotis in March. Followed by the wedding celebrations of the Crown Prince of Hussein and Princess Rajwa Al-Husseins wedding celebrations in June.
      As the older Royal kids embarked on new journies with their significant others, the King and Queen of Jordan spent their summer bonding with the younger two. Princess Salma, who recently graduated from the University of Southern California and Prince Hashem, who is now a High School graduate, are making the most of their summer before entering the next busy phase of their lives.
      Princess Salma holds the rank of First Lieutenant in the Jordanian Air Force and also holds a degree in archeology. While academically, his path is yet to be revealed to the world, Prince Hashem has recently been filling some big shoes by accompanying His Highness King Abdulla II and Queen Rania on their official visit to Spain. Learning the ropes of their roles early on, both Prince Hashem and Princess Salma have a promising future ahead.
      Take a look at the Jordanian Royal family’s quiet summer away from home:

      With the Jordanian Royal Wedding just a week away, celebrations have officially commenced. Last night, Queen Rania hosted a henna party for the bride-to-be Rajwa Al Saif.
      The henna ceremony looked like an intimate affair with the women of the family adoring the bride and showering her with their blessing.
      For last night’s celebrations, Rajwa wore a traditional white and gold dress by the Saudi-based designer Honayda Serafi. A long white silhouette with intricate gold embroidery detail around the waist and the bodice. Punctuating the ensemble perfectly was the diaphanous veil with similar embellishments that covered her hair.
      At first glance, the surface ornamentation may just seem simple and elegant, but the embellishments bear details that hold an emotional connection between the bride and the country she is marrying into. Elements like the Jordanian star, palm tree and the phrase, ‘I see you’ have been etched on the attire.
      “Inspired by the traditional Najdi dress known as Sahabi thoub, originating from the Najd region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the design bridges past and present staying true to Ms. Rajwa’s Khalid AlSaif’s roots and contemporary persona. The design features a fully handcrafted veil and dress, flourishing through 3-D ornaments with a mix of silk, metallic threads and traditional reed strings. 7 stars are exclusively present on the veil, symbolizing the 7-pointed Jordanian star,” shared designer Honayda Serafi.
      “The veil was accomplished in a record time of approximately 760 hours with a gathered team of experts, craftsmen and women, bringing to life 10 meters of fully handcrafted tulle for the occasion, a process that would generally take about 2,000 hours of work. While the dress was completed over 340 hours of dedicated work, from start to actual realization,” she further added.
      Queen Rania chose a powder blue gown with tone-on-tone embroidery for the occasion. Sharing her happiness with her ardent followers, the Queen of Jordan posted a number of images from the night, giving everyone a glimpse of the event.
      “No celebration would be complete without our Jordanian family. Celebrating our beautiful Rajwa today! #CelebratingAlHussein.” The carousel begins with a hug between the Queen and the to-be bride, leading to an emotional moment shared between Rajwa and her mother. In other imagery, you can also spot Queen Rania giving a toast, making the bride teary-eyed.
      Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan will be marrying Rajwa Al Saif of Saudi Arabia on June 1, 2023. The Royal Hashemite Court released a statement with details regarding the impending nuptials.

      “The wedding ceremony of HRH Crown Prince Al Hussein and Ms. Rajwa Khalid Al Saif will be at Zahran Palace then the wedding procession will move to Al Husseiniya Palace.” Further adding, “At Husseiniya Palace, a Dinner banquet will be held and there will be a closed reception and banquet for the media.”
