Islamic Nikah

An Islamic Marriage (Nikah) is only valid once the pre-requisites have been met, which are as follows:
1. A Gift (Mahr) is agreed and paid to the bride by the groom
2. Two witnesses are required
3. Any person who can conduct the Nikah Ceremony
4. The Walima (Reception) is a loved Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH and it is to make the nikah public and remove ambiguity but if the couple cannot afford to do so then it is recommended they keep the walima simple and feed a handful of people with light refreshments, there is no requirement in Islam to spend thousands of pounds on hiring fancy cars and lavish venues to entertain guests, in fact this is against Islamic values
