Frequently Asked Questions

What is Mock Wedding?

Mock Wedding YXE is the ultimate wedding party—without the stress, formalities, or awkward family speeches. Designed for anyone who loves a good time, this high-energy, cabaret-style event brings all the fun of a wedding celebration, minus the pressure. The best part? You help decide the couple! Before the event, attendees vote online to choose who will take part in a lighthearted, totally non-legally binding ceremony, aka “holy matriphony.” Whether you’re there for the dancing, the drinks, or just the chaos of a wedding gone wild, Mock Wedding YXE is the perfect excuse to dress up, let loose, and celebrate like it’s your best friend’s big day.
