our honest review
Mariage Marrakech Maroc is not your typical wedding planner. It is a venue-and-planning hybrid, built around Villa Taj Marrakech, a 21-room property on one hectare with a 25-meter pool, a jacuzzi that fits 24 people, and views stretching from the Atlas Mountains to the Agafay desert. The founders, Marianne Labadie and David Garnier, both came from the Paris advertising world. Marianne built a communication agency called Media Book at 22, grew it to roughly 20 employees, sold it to Publicis Group in 2002, then ran Leo Buzz at Leo Burnett before leaving corporate life in 2011. David spent 10 years at a Publicis events agency. They claim to be the first to design secular ceremonies in the Agafay desert, and after roughly 15 years in business, their Instagram @villatajmarrakech sits at 121K followers.
Their standard offering for about 50 guests over three nights at Villa Taj runs approximately 40,000 to 50,000 EUR. That covers venue, planning, and execution as one package, which simplifies logistics but limits your options. The team works in French, English, and Arabic. They have been featured on Junebug Weddings and hold one award on Wezoree with 26 portfolio projects listed. There is no public fee structure. You request a quote, you wait, you negotiate. Here is the honest part. At least one reviewer described the experience as having a "factory" feel, and couples have noted restrictions on bringing external wedding planners. When the venue owner is also your planner, their priorities and yours may not always line up. If you want full independence in choosing your vendors or a planner who works solely for you, this setup might feel limiting. That said, the all-in-one model does mean fewer moving parts, which matters when you are coordinating a destination wedding 20 minutes outside Marrakech.
You would choose them if you want a single point of contact who controls both the venue and the planning. The villa accommodates 20 to 150 guests, so it works for intimate dinners and larger celebrations. Marianne and David's advertising backgrounds show in their visual presentation. Their social media is polished, their portfolio is substantial, and they clearly know how to market a wedding. For couples who want a ready-made destination wedding without sourcing every vendor independently, this is a real advantage. But go in with your eyes open. They are not listed on Zankyou or Mariages.net, and I could not find a confirmed Google review rating. Their Facebook page has about 4,300 likes, which is modest for 15 years of operation. The quote-based pricing means you will not know costs until you are already in conversation. None of this is disqualifying, but it means you should ask direct questions early and get everything in writing before you commit.

favoriteBuild your Marrakech wedding hereMariage Marrakech Maroc charges a flat fee of €10,500 with no vendor commissions. On a €60,000 wedding budget, your total planning cost would be €10,500. This is a fixed price regardless of how much you spend on vendors.
We recommend booking Mariage Marrakech Maroc 12 to 18 months before your wedding date. During peak season (October to April), popular planners fill up quickly. Contact them as early as possible to check availability for your preferred dates.
Mariage Marrakech Maroc does not charge vendor commissions. Their fee is fully transparent, what you see is what you pay. This means they have no financial incentive to recommend more expensive vendors.
Mariage Marrakech Maroc works best for couples who want a beautiful venue and a planning team bundled together, and who are comfortable letting the same company handle both. The villa is genuinely impressive, the founders have serious professional credentials, and the Agafay desert setting is hard to beat. Just know that "all-in-one" also means less flexibility. If control over every detail matters to you, interview them carefully about what you can and cannot customize. For everyone else, this is a solid, experienced option for a Marrakech wedding in the 40K to 50K EUR range.
