Noghl is often included in Iranian and Afghan weddings, which are based on ancient Persian / Afghan ceremonies. As part of the wedding celebration, a lavish spread of food is prepared at the home of the bride. Included is an assortment of pastries and sweets, including noghl, which is typically paid for by the groom. In many places in both Iran and Afghanistan, Noghl is showered on the bride and groom, much like confetti would be in Western countries.
