Marrakech, also known as Paris’s 21st district, has risen to prominence as a prominent luxury wedding destination in recent years. It’s only a three-hour trip from Paris, and with a brand new international airport about to open in a few months, it’s the ideal location for exchanging vows and celebrating your love.

The city’s compositional attractions include the famed Jemaa el Fna, a fantastic open space in the city’s centre that hosts rotating circles of people gathered around trapeze artists, storytellers, and fascinating carnival acts. The exquisite ruin of the El Badi Palace, the Saadian Tombs, the charming Yves Saint Laurent Majorelle Gardens, which are as famous as their trademark blue colour, and, last but not least, the Koutoubia Minaret, which is undoubtedly North Africa’s best Islamic landmark.

Marrakech, like all Moroccan cities, is divided into two parts: the old walled Medina and the provincial Ville Nouvelle, built by the French in the mid-twentieth century. Why not combine the two: a luxurious wedding with traditional elements?

Whether you envision your wedding ceremony in the desert, your wedding cocktail in a private Riad, or treating yourself and your guests to a luxurious resort hotel in the mountains or at the Palmeraie, Sumptuous Events has hosted ceremonies in a variety of exciting locations around the world, and we’ve hand-picked the top 10 wedding venues in Marrakech for a royal destination wedding!
