Fred Jossoias, a steakhouse owner in the country, brought the news not as a mere steak, but as a complaint about not being included on the guest list until now. According to him, the traditional ceremony will take place in Matola.
Everything indicates that before the civil marriage, the couple, who are involved with two Portuguese-speaking countries, Mozambique and Angola, will hold a customary wedding. Also known as a traditional wedding or informal wedding, this ceremony follows the specific customs and traditions of a particular culture, community, or region.
Generally, these marriages do not follow a strict legal format and can vary greatly in terms of rituals, ceremony, attire, and celebration. They are based on cultural, religious, and social practices passed down through generations. However, the legality of a customary marriage may vary depending on the laws of the country or jurisdiction in which it takes place.
In Mozambique, lobolo can be understood as a customary and recurring marriage in southern Mozambique, a traditional practice that involves kulovola (meaning giving goods to the bride's family to carry out a recognized union between the groom's relatives and the bride's relatives).
According to information provided by Fred Jossoias, Lizha James and Nelo dos Santos will be performing lobolo (bride price) this weekend in the municipality of Matola.
