Roxanne,
We had a wedding with about 100 people attending, It was wonderful, I would never want any other kind of wedding.
I can say that we prepared everything for the wedding from beginning to end in less than 2 days. His family was a great help. We had the wedding at the House. We had a big beautiful tent, and had the wedding on the roof.
I had 3 dresses. I bought one in Rabat, and we rented the other 2 along with all of the jewelry and crowns. We also rented the chairs that were our thrones, because you are the King and Queen during the wedding.
It was incredible. We hired a videographer, and a photographer, as well as we had our cameras that his family was using, just in case there was a problem with the professional pictures. You never know.
I had the Henna done on my hands and feet the night before, and our wedding day lasted from 6:00 pm, until 6:30 am the next morning.
Don't worry about anything too much. You would be surprised how quickly you can put together a beautiful wedding. Don't fret, just enjoy it. It will work out right before your eyes. I was amazed how quickly everything was organized. It took so long to get our Papers for our Wedding Certificate , over 2 weeks, that we had to get the wedding put together very quickly. It was Just before the beginning of Ramadan.
I was lucky enough to enjoy 22 days with my Husband after our wedding ceremony.
Good luck with everything, and enjoy your wedding.
Please feel free to ask if you have any other questions.
