Private, always
Every experience is made from your brief.
- Only ever privateNo shared groups and no fixed departures. Your days, your driver, your guide, your dates.
- Made from your briefEvery itinerary, stay and event starts from a conversation, not a package off a shelf.
- One team for everythingThe trip, the stays and the event are planned together, by the same people.
- In writing, before you commitYou get a written proposal and an itemised quote to change as many times as you need.
Where it could happen
Kinds of place, never a fixed venue: we shortlist real ones for your date and check each with you in writing.

What couples ask us
Can you plan a legal wedding in Morocco?
No. The ceremonies we plan in Morocco are symbolic: your words, a celebrant if you want one, music for the walk. The legal part is done at home, before or after the trip.
Can we add an event to a trip we are already planning with you?
Yes. Any private trip, whether a honeymoon, a tour or an itinerary, can carry one evening or occasion inside it, planned by the same team: a proposal on the dunes, a private dinner, a vow renewal on the way, a henna evening.
Where can the event take place?
We suggest kinds of setting that fit your date, your numbers and your style: the dunes, a desert camp, a kasbah at the edge of the sand, a palace-garden riad, a rooftop, a terrace in the High Atlas or the Atlantic coast. We shortlist places and check each one with you in writing.
How is an event priced?
Every event is quoted in writing after a conversation, as an itemised proposal you can change as many times as you need. There is no set price, because no two events are the same.
Do we deal with one company for the trip and another for the event?
No. The trip, the stays and the event are planned together by the same people, with one planner who holds the whole plan and one written plan everyone works from.
Can you look after our guests as well?
Yes. We hold riads, kasbahs and camps for your party, meet everyone at the airport, time the drivers around their flights, and plan private days for guests who come early or stay on.
Tell us the idea.
A few lines is enough: the occasion, roughly when, roughly how many, and what you picture.
