KOTA BARU: Tengku Mahkota Kelantan Dr Tengku Muhammad Faiz Petra, 45, will be tying the knot with Sofie Louise Johansson, 33, from Sweden, on April 19.
Kelantan Palace ceremonial chief Datuk Dr Tengku Mohamed Faziharudean Tengku Feissal said the wedding ceremony will be a low-key, closed-door affair.
“His Highness ordered that wedding gifts be channelled to welfare bodies in Kelantan, like Yayasan Orang Kurang Upaya (Yokuk), orphanages and old folks’ homes, as well as the Malaysian Red Crescent Society.
“His Highness seeks the prayers of the people that his marriage will go smoothly and receives the blessings of Allah until Jannah (paradise),” he told a press conference at Istana Balai Besar here, today.
Tengku Mohamed Faziharudean said the ceremony will begin with the marriage solemnisation, followed by the royal couple sitting on the wedding dais and a royal banquet.
"The wedding ceremony will be attended by Kelantan royalty and close friends of His Highness.
"Perhaps, after the wedding, His Highness will join events with the people to introduce his wife whom he has known for a long time,” he added.
Prior to the official announcement, an image of an invitation card to the wedding had gone viral on social media.-Bernama
