Yemeni wedding party

Yemeni wedding (men's night) in Menakha, Yemen (1997)
The men's parties are held in the streets and involve singing, dancing, and chewing qat. The groom, the son of the local hotel manager, sits in a throne-esque chair while wedding guests make music, sing, dance, chew qat and smoke the narhgile. "Incense burners fueled by glowing charcoal release the scent of the incense and are passed from recites old poems, with the guests joining him from time to time. The recitation contains reminders of Islamic duties and wish the new couple Allah's blessing and a long happy married life. Whenever the qadi takes a break, a man plays the lute and sings wedding songs. Sometimes he is accompanied by the other guests using hand drums or cymbals." (www.zajawa.com/webbingways/yemmeni.html)
