Going to a wedding without a partner? Bring a companion

A real need, rarely said out loud

A cousin's wedding, the end-of-year family dinner, a colleague's leaving drinks, the work party where “everyone brings someone”: many people dread the questions more than the event itself (“So, still single?”, “Who are you coming with this time?”). Going with a trusted companion, without having to invent one at the last minute, is a common use of friendly company by the hour, in France as in other countries.

What it changes in practice

• A reassuring presence throughout the event, so you are not left alone in a corner or stuck in conversations you did not choose.
• No pretending required: the BFF is not there to play a fake partner, but to accompany you as a trusted person. You decide how to introduce them.
• A framework agreed in advance: duration, outfit, the mood of the event, everything is discussed by message before the big day.
• A price known in advance: the BFF's hourly rate times the duration, plus a 15% booking fee, shown before payment. Only the fee is paid online; the BFF's rate is paid in person.

How to prepare before the event

Chat with the BFF through Rent a BFF messaging before the big day: the context of the event (wedding, family dinner, work party), the expected duration, the dress code, and what you really expect from their presence. The more precise the brief, the more naturally things go, with no unpleasant surprises for you or for the BFF.

Always strictly platonic

As with every use of Rent a BFF, having a companion at a wedding or an event remains strictly a friendly, platonic companionship service, never an escort service. Every BFF goes through an identity check before their profile is published. To learn more about the legal framework, read is renting a friend legal in France.
