For a grand romantic gesture that you, your partner and all the guests will talk about forever, why not opt for something unique: a typical moroccan wedding ceremony ?

Morocco is a country with very rich and active traditions. A moroccan wedding is a great event, celebrated with great fun and festivity.
Moroccan wedding themes are the rage now, especially with celebrities joining the trend. Moroccan colors and elements confer an exotic aura, which ensures the wedding is a class apart and remains in memory for years to come. As a real moroccan wedding can last up to 7 days, we would of course organize an adapted, much shorter ceremony. Traditionally, the bride wears several embroidered dresses (caftans) during the different stages of the ceremony and is adorned with gorgeous jewelry (necklace, belt, bracelets, earrings, crown).
The highlight of the ceremony is the couple's arrival, the groom on the shouders of his friends or on horseback and the bride carried in the traditional palanquin-type "chair" only used for these occasions.
Such events require the services of a professional for providing clothing and accessories for the bride and groom, bridesmaids, parents, groomsmen, etc.., a traditional Moroccan wedding stylist who is referred to as a Neggafa.

If you opt for a moroccan wedding, Riad Sabah would be the perfect venue that features this type of décor for an exotic ceremony created just for you.
Our Moroccan-style wedding package comprises everything needed for this purpose:
  • Henna party with an experienced nakasha (the woman who does the painting) and beauty treatment for the bride.
  • Bride adornment, jewels (of course contrefeit), caftans and a ceremonial dress (djellaba) for the groom.
  • All necessary accessories like a wedding tribune for the bridal couple, platform and/or chair, horse on demand.
  • Reception with standing buffet with all necessary food for the guests (Chicken or lamb tagine, Pastilla, zesty prawn, Mechoui or roasted Lamb, moroccan pastries, mint tea, drinks...etc)
  • Moroccan musicians group (optionally with dancers) or a DJ who specializes in Moroccan music.
  • Optional recorded ceremony by a professional photograph.
  • Moroccan wedding cake or "pièce montée" according to your style and taste.
  • Gifts and wedding favors for your guests like soaps, perfumes, scented candles, dragées, and so on..
  • Wedding portofolio : 6 (10x15) and 3 (18x24) printed photographs.
  • Prior to the ceremony, full hammam bath and scrub followed by a moroccan massage with manucure and pedicure for the bride.
  • After the ceremony, table for 2 – five-course private candlelight dinner, one evening during your stay.
