How do guests travel to Marrakech from the US and Canada?

There are no non-stop flights from the United States; from New York allow about 8 to 9 hours via Casablanca on Royal Air Maroc, which hubs there. From Canada, Royal Air Maroc operates a seasonal non-stop from Montreal to Casablanca, then a short connection to Marrakech. Most North American couples ask guests to allow a travel day on each side.

An intimate wedding lets you share every moment with the guests who truly matter. No table of 200 where the newlyweds barely speak to anyone. Here, you have time to enjoy every guest, every moment. The per-guest budget is higher, but the total budget is much lower than a traditional wedding — and the quality of experience is incomparable.

What Makes an Intimate Wedding at Riad Vendôme Different

Most Marrakech wedding venues are hotels or event spaces shared with other guests. At Riad Vendôme, the entire riad is exclusively yours — no strangers, no noise from other events, no shared spaces. Your 20 closest people have a 12-room boutique hotel entirely to themselves for the duration of your wedding weekend.

The patio with its private pool becomes your ceremony space. The rooftop terrace — 300m² with views over the Marrakech medina and Atlas mountains — becomes your reception. The hammam becomes a pre-ceremony spa retreat. Chef Naima prepares a personalised Moroccan wedding feast. Eric coordinates every detail from the florist to the music.
