Elopement wedding in Marrakech: an intimate celebration of your love

When you imagine an “elopement” you may picture two people hand-in-hand, running away together to tie the knot in secret. Although nuances of this definition remain true in the modern day, it is much more about enjoying an intimate celebration of love with less stress and more personality! A traditional wedding requires a plethora of planning and fine tuning, usually with a lengthy guest list in tow. However, an elopement wedding focuses solely on your desires as a couple and is perfect for those seeking a picturesque and personal marriage.

Why should you elope in Morocco?

An elopement wedding in Marrakech, Morocco, is a flawless option for many reasons, so let’s delve deeper into the location’s quaint, effervescent, and characterful nature and why you should consider quietly getting married in Marrakech.

Experience

It’s no secret that Marrakech weddings have the ability to take your breath away. Imagine standing opposite the person you love, sharing meaningful vows and soaking in every last drop of culture and beauty in the Moroccan air. Picture this for a moment - sharing vows in the middle of the desert with a spectacular view, surrounded by peace and nature, followed by a breath-taking desert sunset, which is a photographer’s dream for capturing this perfect moment! It’s truly an experience just for you as a pair; there aren’t any other people who can draw an ounce of the magic away from you.

Freedom

With an elopement in Morocco, you are presented with a silver platter of freedom and every single decision can be made with your best interests at heart. Your marriage will be an experience, rather than a one-time event and you can feel empowered to commit in a special and intimate setting. Enjoy peaceful, harmonious bliss whilst planning your picture-perfect day without having to fulfill anybody’s needs apart from your own.

Uniqueness

Elopements are bursting with uniqueness and personality without the worry and weight of expectations from a lengthy guest list. Your wedding ceremony can reflect your true wishes and individualistic style which lives and breathes authenticity, especially with a carefully chosen Morocco wedding planner. One of the most stressful aspects of wedding planning can be writing a guest list. By choosing a Morocco elopement, you eliminate this weight-bearing task from your to-do list, so that you can focus on the more joyful elements of the most special day of your life!

Beauty

The expense of a big, classic, fairy-tale wedding seems to rise incrementally as each year goes by. There is also an underlying pressure to acquire the most stylish decor, source the most prestigious vendors and craft the perfect table plans. Luckily, an elopement is kinder to your bank balance and gives you the freedom to spend smaller, without compromising on beauty

All in all, an elopement is an adventure-of-a-lifetime for you and your partner. There are no boundaries, no rules, and no limitations to what you can create. If your vision is a petite, personal, breath-taking, memorable, unrivalled wedding day, then an exquisite elopement wedding in Morocco is your golden ticket.

Intimate wedding planning in Morocco for up to 50 Guests

Although the couple should always be at the heart and soul of every elopement wedding, we often find that a small number of guests can bring even more joy to your wedding day. If you are hoping to elope and invite a handful of guests, we can tailor a bespoke package to suit your preferences and budget. At La Perle Events, we believe that getting married in Morocco is an experience, not just a one-time event. Here is an example of the type of personalized planning package we could create for you:

All of your guests can be accommodated in the same wedding venue, whilst spending three glorious days celebrating under the sun of Marrakech. On the first day, you could begin with a welcome dinner in Agafay desert or on the rooftop of a riad, which is a type of traditional Moroccan or Moorish interior garden or courtyard associated with house and palace architecture. On the second day, your wedding day would take place at one of the many stunning Marrakech wedding venues. On day three, your wedding elopement experience could end with a sunshine-filled brunch and pool party. All of which will be meticulously organized and styled beautifully by one of our many trusted Moroccan suppliers.
