Lara Scandar + custom-made Zuhair Murad = a marriage (gown) made in heaven.
Zuhair Murad can always be relied upon to produce a gown as momentous as a bride’s big day – and his latest is no exception.
The Beirut-born designer was called upon to create a custom-made number for Lara Scandar, who tied the knot this weekend.

The powerhouse pop singer and Star Academy alumni tied the knot with her partner Philippe Katchouni in Lebanon, donning a crystal-encrusted gown that could have leapt straight out of the pages of a Disney book.
And the label behind it, which counts Celine Dion, Adele, and Jessica Chastain among its celebrity fans, agreed, telling Scandar on Instagram: “Congratulations princess, you took our breath away.”
The 26-year-old Rock Around My Love star, who was raised in Cairo, paired the long-sleeved and high-necked number with an embellished full-length veil, for an ornate yet delicate finish.
The English and Arabic singer also whipped off her headpiece and let down her locks for a spectacular reception.
The venue looked pretty fairytale-like itself, with woodland trees and floral arches scattered around the dancefloor.
Designer Murad was also in attendance, snapping a selfie with the bride (and his head-turning creation).
Scandar, who boasts more than 2.4 millions fans on Facebook alone, isn’t the first star the Lebanese label has dressed for their big day either.
