A Palestinian bride is dressed in a traditional outfit on her wedding day during the Palestinian Heritage Week in the town of Birzeit near the West Bank city city of Ramallah, on August 3, 2022. One of the most distinctive features of a Palestinian wedding is the zaffe, known as the wedding march. This procession is marked by singers, musicians, dancers, and wedding guests who escort the bridal party: they may escort the groom to the bride's house, or the bride and groom to the church or the mosque.
