Why train in Morocco, and why on site

Fieldwork over theory

An online course teaches you a method. Three weeks on the ground put you in front of the caterers, florists, decorators, negafas and venue managers you will actually work with afterwards.

Access to the palace hotels

The program is built on a network of exceptional venues — La Mamounia, Royal Mansour, Fairmont Royal Palm, Le Selman, Namaskar, Amanjena, Four Seasons. How those houses operate is not something you learn remotely.

The specifics of Moroccan weddings

Multi-day celebrations, hammam, henna, processions, traditional orchestras, halal or kosher requirements: sequences no generic European curriculum genuinely covers.

The destination-wedding market

Marrakech, Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier and Essaouira draw international couples looking for a planner who can bridge their expectations and local suppliers.

Who this program is for

  • Anyone who wants to become a wedding planner in Morocco with no prior events experience.
  • Events, decor or hospitality professionals who want to specialise in the luxury segment.
  • The Moroccan diaspora — France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, the Gulf — who want to train in Morocco and work there.
  • Planners based abroad who want to master the Moroccan destination-wedding market.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a wedding planner school in Morocco?

Yes. Motta Wedding Academy trains luxury wedding planners in Casablanca - Marrakech - Agadir, on site, over a three-week program. It was founded by Madame Motta after a 35-year career orchestrating receptions at the Ritz Paris, the Four Seasons George V and the Hôtel de Crillon.

How long is the training?

Three weeks of intensive immersion in Casablanca - Marrakech - Agadir, combining classroom teaching, meetings with high-end suppliers, visits to landmark venues, and a full-scale final project defended before a jury.

Do I need prior experience in events?

No. The program starts from the fundamentals before moving into the codes of the ultra-luxury market. No diploma or prior experience is required — rigour, passion and an eye for detail matter more.

How much does the wedding planner training cost?

Tuition and payment plans are shared during the discovery call and in the downloadable brochure. With only 10 seats per session, each application is reviewed individually.

How is this different from an online wedding planner course?

An online course hands you a method; it does not introduce you to suppliers or put you inside the venues. Here the entire program takes place on site, in a group of no more than 10, with direct mentorship and palace visits.
