Question (mostly) for Moroccan Couples

[yassmine2878 1]

This is mostly directed to the couples who have gone through Casablanca, but all advice is appreciated, regardless of the consulate you dealt with. How many of you had enagement ceremony photos to show the consulate? Did it help or hinder your case? We never had the time/opportunity do have a ceremony, so we're a little concerned about this being brought up by the consulate.

We didn't have them, yet they were asked for. My fiance just said we had a small get together with close family and it was not a big deal at all.They seemed to accept that answer.

we had them (it was small, just family) - i don't know if they were "asked for" but he showed them and was asked who was in each picture. i think it was a good thing.

None of our evidence was asked for, so I don't know.

We didn't have any engagement ceremony, so no photos. They didn't ask for them, although they did look at all of our other photos.

We origionally planned to send 100's of ceremony photos and a video (it was a large gathering, 2 days). But after reading some of the stories here of how the CO's have sometimes confused the situation for a wedding, we decided to use ALL of the vacation/nonceremony photos and just a few of the ceremony itself. I made sure while in Morocco to get pictures of us together under a street sign of every city we visited, under a giant poster of the king, and several landmarks. They do want to see enough of a ceremony to show commitment, but not enough to overdo and think it was a wedding.

We never had an engagement party, so we only had pictures of our travels together there in Morocco. My fiance did tell them we had given each other "fiance/fiancee" rings. They did ask him to see his at that time. Personally, I do not think it matters if you have an engagement party or not. Good Luck!
