The following nullifies an Islamic marriage if it is not fulfilled except

  1. payment of dowry
  2. conent of parents
  3. proposal and acceptance
  4. marriage feast ✓
Explanation

A valid Islamic marriage needs proposal and acceptance, a dowry (mahr), and the consent of the bride’s guardian. If these are missing, the marriage is not valid.

The marriage feast (walimah) is recommended but is not a condition, so skipping it does not cancel the marriage.
