Ksar Char Bagh Wedding - Marrakech - Jessica & Darren

“There isn't an ocean too deep, a mountain so high it can keep me away”

Jessica, a free spirit from the land of Oz, married her English gentleman, Darren, in an adventurous four-day wedding at one of my favourite cities, Marrakech.

The weekend started at the rooftop of the one and only El Fenn and the aesthetics of the riad and beautiful views of the medina were perfect to welcome Jessica & Darren’s guests to the red city. The second day saw 120 camels riding through the Agafay Desert where guests were met by cocktails, a dinner under the stars, and incredible fiery entertainment throughout the starry evening.

The wedding day took place at the luxurious Ksar Char-Bagh with an emotional ceremony and a list of vendors that was simply a dream. It’s fair to say that the Boutique Souk team, as always, planned and produced the whole four days flawlessly. The weekend finished off with a pool party brunch on Easter Monday and the chilled vibes were certainly the perfect way to end an incredible adventure.

Kristen & Dave - Marrakech Wedding

November 29, 2017Igor Demba

"We'll stir our spirits 'til we're one"

All right, this is a long one... Kristen & Dave got in touch 6 months before their wedding and after a Skype call I knew their day would be full of relaxed vibes, a spirit of celebration with heaps of style and fun. Fast forward a few months and a three day Moroccan adventure begins.

Kristen & Dave's vision was brought forward by the incredible talent that is Boutique Souk, complimented by the artistic eye of Mark Brown Films and we couldn't have had a better team. There were so many highlights to this adventure, but there were some poignant moments that stuck out, like K&D surprising their family and friends to a camel ride through the Agafay desert with the Atlas mountains in the horizon or Dave's ceremony entrance at Beldi Coutry Club with both mom's skipping along to Faces - Ooh La La.

Its incredibly rewarding when a couple trusts you to simply "do your thing", it turns the creative heat up and all that is amplified when you see things for the first time, take it all in and capture it. Thank you Kristen & Dave for simply being ace and introducing me to the wild jungle that is Marrakech, I am sure I will be back.

So much thought went into this adventure so feel free to hit up Junebug for all the deets.

For now, hit play and enjoy the trip to North Africa.

Peace.
