Wedding Day at The Club at Ruby Hill. Celebrate love with us!

We're throwing it back to 2018. Celebrating the love for this special couple - S & R. We learned about their traditions and the elements included in the sofreh ceremony. What is a sofreh? It's a Persian wedding ceremony tradition; meaning a table or a “spread.” In a Persian wedding, the ceremony area, including a stage or table, is covered with delicious delicacies and beautiful decorative items, each with its own particular symbolism for the marriage. Typical things on the sofreh include:
Mirror
Holy book(s)
Candelabra
Espand (wild rue seeds, burned to ward off bad energy)
Honey and yogurt
The termeh (silk cloth)
Sugar loafs (more on this below!)
Flatbread
Flowers
The couple’s chair
Eggs
Bread and herbs
Coins of gold
7 colored threads
Sweets

Seven spices (Khashkhash (poppy seeds), Berenj (wild rice), salt, Raziyane (Nigella seeds aka coriander or fennel), Cha’i (black tea leaves), Sabzi Khoshk (Angelica) and Kondor (Frankincense))
