I am going cairo in a week and a half, i only have a flight but we are finding it very difficult to find a hotel that will let us both stay together in the same room as we are not yet married.
Hope someone can help!!!!!!
Oh we plan to marry when i come in a weeks time!!!
x
i Have checked a few hotels and they have all said without being married we are unable to share a room!
After reading what some of you have wrote i feel i maybe should have put a bit more info.
Its not that we intend to take a sin by sharing the same room, just dont want to be in a room on my own untill we are married. It does not mean that we would do anything.
He is a muslim yes, and when i went to sharm a month ago he arranged it all, the room the papers of intended marriage. He paid for the whole week and he wouldnt let me put my hand in my pocket once. He has been trying to find somehwere but it looks like we will have to rent somewhere. Thanks anyway.
Does anyone know how long it actually takes to get married in cairo!
All i seem to be told is its a lot fo paperwork.
there are alot of hotels in cairo that provides and allow this
all hotels have no problem withh this
just arrange and book
This is the golden but not always concrete rule- the more expensive the hotel the more likely that you will be able to be accommodated, however you must show your marriage certificate or tell that you plan to be married (by showing the oath that you must swear at the embassy before you are allowed to marry!) or don’t explain anything, you are more likely to have problems if your man wants to take the room at an Egyptian resident rate.
Otherwise wait until you actually get married, i know its no fun to stay in a hotel room alone but its also about respect from the start of the married life, why have the potential to take a sin, when all is blessed after you are truly married? Waiting will only make the love grow and respect!
I suggest that you seek private accommodation such as renting an apartment otherwise, you may have problems.
Good Luck and congrats on your upcoming married life
You are a fornicator, apparently and so is he?…..if not then have some respect and have seperate rooms….if he is a muslim he shouldnt marry a non-muslim unless she is a CHASTE< PRACTICING jew or christian….with this marriage I fear a bad seed will produce rotten fruit….get right with GOD for you own sake…
Even if you find one, it’s illegal in Egypt if you are not married and one of the partners is Egyptian.
Please take care and don’t risk as you may cuz problems to yourself and your boyfriend.
Can I ask why isn’t your Egyptian boyfriend booking and paying for the hotel?
you will find that even at the Sheraton and other 4 and 5 star hotels you will need to provide some form of i.d. that you are or intend marrying.
You can either get this paperwork done through your embassy or your guy can arrange to have one done here.
But you will need to fax your passport details and pic.
It costs a few hundred L.E. but I am sure he will know the price and procedure.
The only other option is to stay in private rental apartments. But you will need to provide similar documentation unless you want to be giving a fortune to the doorman of the apartments in baksheesh.
It is really up to your fiancee to arrange the accommodation whether you share it or not is your business. I am Australian married to an Egyptian and even though we are both in our early 40s we have to show proof we are married.
When we were engaged I used to leave all the paperwork and accommodation for him to organise.
Believe me, other wise you really are sending out bad signals to your Egyptian man.For no matter how cool he may seem about it all he is Egyptian and most likely Muslim.
A good test would be to ask him to arrange and pay for the accommodation then you will see just what he is made of.
OK, rent a single room for you then let him visit you in the room and spend all the night with you
hotels in cairo have to see the id of the man that proves he is married to his roommate, so her id has to be seen, too.
if you want to be together, he can book 2 rooms, one for you and another for him.
meanwhile, marriage in egypt doesnt need a lot of preparation.get married, have a documentation that proves you are married,this will enable both of you to take one room.
congratulations.
