My sister just got engaged to a really sweet guy she met while he was studying here, but his whole family is back in Morocco and now we’re trying to figure out this whole wedding planning thing between two continents. It’s been a bit overwhelming, honestly. His mom has been sending us all these amazing photos and links to explain things, and I’ve been digging around online to get a better handle on what to expect when we fly over there. I stumbled upon a page that broke down all the different stages, from the pre-wedding hammam to the multiple outfit changes, which was super helpful because I had no idea there was so much involved. For anyone else navigating a cross-cultural wedding, it’s definitely worth reading up on the details of Moroccan wedding traditions so you don’t feel completely lost like I did at the beginning. Now we just have to figure out how we’re going to transport all the gifts and outfits without breaking the airline baggage rules! Has anyone here been a guest at a wedding in Morocco and can give me some pointers on what to wear and what the timeline is usually like?
