Is a bridal party allowed in an Islamic Nikah?

Answer

In Islam, a Nikah is simple. It is not a ceremony. The couple should wear the Islamic attire at all times. It is not permissible to imitate the western culture of life.

Ask AskImam

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
