Getting hitched overlooking The Great Pyramid of Giza or The Great Sphinx can be a monumental moment to cherish for life. Cleopatra’s Alexandria and the sites of Aswan are historic to have your divine nuptials. There are several resorts beside the River Nile where you can choose to have an opulent Arabian wedding.
Tip: Spring and Autumn are ideal for weddings in these Middle-Eastern countries. It is important to take into consideration the month of Ramadan because people don’t eat during the day, and it may be more challenging to get events organized during the daytime.
