Zaffa

In Egyptian Culture, the zaffa (زفـّـة / ALA-LC: zaffah), or wedding march, is a musical procession of bendir drums, bagpipes, horns, belly dancers and men carrying flaming swords. This is an ancient Egyptian tradition that predates Islam. When the procession reaches its destination, there is usually a party, more loud noises, and then dinner.

The Zaffa is also well-documented in many Egyptian movies ever since their start from more than a hundred years ago, which massively helped spread the ancient Egyptian tradition to the whole region.
