Two Brides, Two Grooms, One Viral Wedding Entrance — and Egypt Has Thoughts

A wedding video featuring not one, but two brides walking side-by-side has taken Egyptian social media by storm — and let’s just say, the reactions are chef’s kiss.

In the now-viral clip, the brides make their entrance in totally different styles: one in a classic white gown, veil and all, while the other appears in a full black niqab. It turns out — this wasn’t a double look for one bride, but a rare moment of two brides each marrying their own groom… in one joint celebration!

Naturally, Egyptians had jokes. The most repeated one? “Amr Abdelgelil vs Ayman Abdelgelil” — a hilarious nod to the dramatic versus modest contrast, wrapped in a pop culture punchline only locals would get.

Social media lit up with puns and one-liners:

“This is drama meets modesty, and I’m living for it.”

“One said Vogue, the other said halal only.”

“When your Pinterest board and your mom’s Pinterest board both win.”

And while some were puzzled, most people just leaned into the humor and uniqueness of the moment. At the end of the day, it’s a celebration of love — times two — and Egyptians never miss a chance to celebrate with style and sarcasm.
