The palace terrace shimmered under a vast canopy of stars, casting a soft, ethereal glow over the evening. Tonight’s dinner was a prelude to the wedding festivities, an intimate gathering of close family and guests before the formal rituals commenced. The cool night breeze carried the scent of freshly prepared delicacies, mingling with the low hum of conversations and the occasional tinkling of laughter.
