Haifa Wehbe celebrated her birthday in a very trendy restaurant in Beirut and her fiancé Egyptian millionaire Ahmad Abu Hashemi joined her from Cairo.

On the eve of her birthday, she went out with friends, cut a cake and thought that the festivities were over for this year, what she didn't know is that her friends were preparing a surprise party for the next day.

That evening, Wehbe was supposed to have a casual dinner with her fiancé, but when she arrived at the restaurant she was surprised to see dozens of her friends were gathered to wish her happy birthday. The restaurant was decorated with pink roses and ribbons.

Pink was also the colour of her big heart-shaped cake.

After her birthday party in Beirut, Wehbe flew to Paris for the second fitting of her wedding dress designed by Dolce & Gabbana.

At the weekend, the singer was in the UAE where she participated in a show of several Arab artists.
