From @STYLEMEPRETTY

We’ve featured weddings and inspiration shoots from all over thew world—New York to Paris, Kauai to Bali and everything in between. But today’s unassuming destination selected by Billy Folchetti, founder of Luxe Paris Events for this styled story, is always a refreshing sight. Billy says it best, “The elements that draw us to Morocco are simple—the people first and foremost. The culture is fascinating, the cuisine is divine, and the juxtaposition of 3rd world simplicity with 1st world Luxury is so interesting and beautiful. And the scenery? Stunning.” See it all in the full gallery captured by The Fashion Wedding and the film below by Zen Film Works.

The element of surprise was what inspired Billy Folchetti, founder of Luxe Paris Events, to create this styled story. Not just the “shock value” that comes along with popping the question but also all of the elements that go along with planning a trip to a far-away place full of magical elements that arouse the senses. For some, the idea of a trip to Marrakech – it’s culture, souks, or deserts – might seem “a little too exotic.” Though, it is many times the discovery of “something new” that makes for our most memorable experiences in life.

I fell in love with Marrakech 5 years ago and knew that I needed to show a part of the world that so many are missing. The wedding and event industry, much like tourism, in Marrakech and Morocco has for years has remained a hidden gem. Now that its starting to boom, we really wanted to paint the picture of just how special this place is.

The elements that draw us to Morocco are simple—the people first and foremost. The culture is fascinating, the cuisine is divine, and the juxtaposition of 3rd world simplicity with 1st world Luxury is so interesting and beautiful. And the scenery? Stunning.
