Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to speak Arabic or French?
Not necessarily! Many Moroccan hosts speak English, and language details are listed on each wedding page. However, learning a few Arabic or French phrases enhances your experience.
What should I wear?
Dress code varies by wedding. Some are formal (traditional Moroccan attire or suits), others are casual. Check the wedding listing for specific guidance. When in doubt, ask the hosts!
Are weddings alcohol-free?
Most traditional Moroccan weddings do not serve alcohol, but some modern celebrations do. This is clearly indicated on each wedding listing under "Cultural Preferences."
Can I bring a guest/partner?
Yes! When booking, specify the number of guests (usually 1-4). Each additional guest increases the total price. All guests must be verified.
What if the couple cancels?
If a couple cancels, you receive a full refund immediately. If you cancel more than 7 days before the wedding, you also receive a full refund.
How do I get to the venue?
Some weddings include transportation. Check the listing under "Logistics." Otherwise, hosts typically provide directions and may help arrange taxis or rides.
