The wedding was a joyous occasion that celebrated the union of two cricketing families and two cricketing lovers. The couple had previously got married in a private Nikkah ceremony in February 2023, which was announced by Shahid Afridi on his Twitter account. He wrote: "Shaheen's family approached my family for my daughter's hand. Both families are in touch; matches are made in heaven if Allah wills this match will be made too. My daughter is studying at the moment; she has not yet completed her education. She is my princess; I will not force her into anything that she does not want to do.


The couple's love story has been a captivating tale that has garnered the attention of cricket enthusiasts and admirers around the world. Their wedding ceremony served as a poignant testament to their deep affection for one another and brought together two cricketing legacies in a joyous and memorable event.
