The first *Everyday* project started in Africa, when two journalists grew frustrated with the typical Western narrative portraying only the sick or poor side of the continent. After they started posting images of daily life, photographers in other countries followed suit. Here, from Everyday Middle East, an Iranian bride and groom get ready for their wedding.
