How do you pay, and in what currency?

Simple, in euros, with no surprises at the end.

Money across borders can feel opaque, so here is exactly how paying for your wedding works, and how much cash you actually need on the islands.

The honest, simple version is that you pay us in euros and you do not need to wrestle with foreign currency to get married. The local money is the Seychelles Rupee, and you will use a little of it for day-to-day spending on the islands, but your wedding itself is quoted and invoiced in euros with every price printed openly. There are no hidden conversion games and no surprise sums at the end, which is exactly how paying for a wedding abroad should feel.

How you pay for the wedding

Your wedding package is priced in euros, the same figures you see on our packages page, and you settle it with us by bank transfer or card as agreed when you book, usually a deposit to hold your date and the balance before the day. You will always know the full total in advance, itemised, with nothing added quietly later. Because we quote in euros, you are never exposed to a currency swing between booking and your wedding, and you can budget with certainty.

Cash and cards on the islands

For everyday spending, meals out, a taxi, a market keepsake, you will want some local Seychelles Rupees, and it is easy to get them from banks and cash machines on Mahe and Praslin or to change money on arrival. Hotels, larger restaurants and many shops take cards, including euros in some tourist spots, so you do not need to carry large amounts of cash. A modest amount of rupees for small vendors and tips, plus a card for everything bigger, covers the whole trip comfortably.

No surprises, by design

The thing we care about most here is that you are never caught out, because a surprise bill is the fastest way to spoil a beautiful trip. Every cost in your wedding is agreed and written down before you travel, and if anything optional comes up along the way we tell you the price first and let you decide. If you are ever unsure how something is paid or converted, ask us, and we will give you the plain answer rather than leave you guessing.

Good questions

Questions brides ask

What currency do you pay for a Seychelles wedding in?

Your wedding is quoted and invoiced in euros, the same prices shown on our packages page, settled by bank transfer or card. The local currency is the Seychelles Rupee, which you use for day-to-day spending, but not for the wedding itself.

Do I need to carry a lot of cash in Seychelles?

No. Hotels, larger restaurants and many shops take cards. Keep a modest amount of Seychelles Rupees for small vendors, taxis and tips, easily obtained from banks and cash machines on Mahe and Praslin, and use a card for anything bigger.

Are there hidden costs or currency surprises?

No. Every cost is agreed and itemised in euros before you travel, so there is no currency swing between booking and the day, and nothing is added quietly. Anything optional is priced up front for you to decide.
