Rania hosted the party at the Royal Hashemite Court’s Madareb Bani Hashem on May 22. Guests included the Queen’s two daughters, as well as members of the Al Saif family and women from across the kingdom.
The celebration on May 22 came ahead of Rajwa and Hussein’s wedding. The couple, who got engaged last August, will tie the knot on June 1. Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden, Crown Prince Haakon of Norway, and Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands and their firstborn, Princess Catharina-Amalia are all set to attend the wedding.
