Maayan Dori Marries Partner Shahar in Large Southern Israel Wedding

Maayan Dori, star of the fifth season of the Israeli reality show "Married at First Sight," married her partner Shahar Fargion in a large wedding event held in a venue in a southern Israeli moshav. The ceremony took place two weeks after a smaller henna ceremony and was attended by approximately 900 guests, a significant increase from the 70 guests at the henna event. Shahar, a 33-year-old religious reservist soldier, had been kept private by Dori until this wedding, marking the first public reveal of her spouse.

The wedding featured a dance party with DJ Omer Bismut providing the music. Fashion-wise, Dori wore two wedding dresses designed by Dror Kontento, who also designed her dress for the televised wedding on "Married at First Sight." The couple had announced their engagement in January with a video posted on Dori's Instagram account, where she expressed her excitement. The wedding celebration was described as a heartfelt closure to the chapter that began on the reality show.

Dori, 38, and Fargion, 33, have been together for three years, maintaining a private relationship until now. The event was covered by mako and photographer Shahar Zissu, highlighting the joyous occasion and the couple's milestone.
