Brief but Impressive Wedding

It was Imran Balochs' wedding ceremony today at Civil Aviation Club,adjacent to Karachi airport. Neither Valima lunch nor a late night diner was planned.  Amids impressive large gathering of community notables, people gathered at 4.30 and Nikah was declared at 5.00 pm.
People were quickly served with cold drinks and sweet packets. Surpassingly the gathering finished after Dua in fifteen minutes at 5.15 pm and every one left happily and peacefully.
One wonders why we can not adopt and convene such a simple but impressive wedding ceremonies so that guests should not suffer in waiting overcrowded diners followed by risky late night driving in Karachi which reported to one of the crime ridden cities in the world.
