Do I need a wedding planner for a Marrakech wedding?

Strongly recommended. Planning a wedding in Morocco from abroad involves navigating language barriers (French/Arabic), unfamiliar vendor markets, complex logistics, and cultural differences. A good planner saves you money by negotiating vendor rates (typically 10–20% below retail), prevents common mistakes, and handles the day-of coordination. Planner fees typically range from €3,200 to €13,000+ depending on the fee model. Use WPM's planner rankings to compare fees side by side.
