Family parties, aunts and uncles, and the row nobody explains, sentence 12

In Bradford, Hamid goes to a wedding with 300 guests and gets his cheeks pinched by about 20 aunties: «Mashallah, so big now!» («Mashallah» is said to admire something good, and means roughly «God has willed it».) He's fed up, but smiles: it is love, just very squeezy love.

Who acts: Hamid, cheeks, God, wedding · What happens: go, get, pinch, say, admire, mean · To what, where: Bradford, cheeks, Mashallah, something, wedding, God · Speech: someone speaks here
