Elopement Weddings: The New Way to Say Yes in the Most Intimate Way

Elopement weddings are becoming more and more loved. Not because they are smaller, but because they feel more real. It is not about skipping the celebration, it is about creating a day that is deeply yours. A day filled with emotion, beauty and presence, without all the rush that sometimes comes with big weddings.

C & D from Switzerland decided to celebrate their love at the stunning Kasbah Bab Ourika in Morocco. Tucked between the Atlas Mountains, it is one of those places where time seems to slow down. The day felt pure, emotional and full of quiet beauty.
Their story already had its roots in Morocco. It all started with a party called Midnight Express Marrakech and their very first holiday as a couple led them here too. Coming back for their wedding felt like closing a beautiful circle. Everything in its place, just the two of them, surrounded by soft light, stillness and the feeling of home.

The planning and styling were beautifully curated by La Perle Events and Party Maroc Marrakech. Every floral detail was created by Beldi Fleurs Marrakech, bringing natural elegance to the mountain setting. It’s always a pleasure working with them. They truly know how to create something that fits perfectly with your wishes.

Captured by us Frame Tales Studio, the day reflected everything an elopement can be. Intimate, luxurious and deeply personal. The kind of love story that unfolds quietly yet stays with you long after.

That is what I love most about elopements. You can focus on what truly matters. You can take the time to be present, to breathe, to feel every little detail. The morning coffee, the mountain air, the moment you look into each other’s eyes and say yes.

If you are dreaming of a wedding that feels effortless yet full of soul, Morocco / Marrakech might just be the perfect place to begin your story together.
