The answer

Perhaps the correct view is to prohibit this action, because it will lead to women looking at this man. While the issue of women looking at men is a matter of scholarly disagreement, if looking is likely to cause temptation (fitnah) or arouse desire, then it is prohibited. And women present looking at this groom, whether on screen or directly, while he is in his full adornment and on his wedding day, is likely to cause temptation with him. Therefore, this action should be prohibited.
