Destination Morocco Podcast
Destination Morocco Podcast is where real trip-planning happens. Hosted by Azdean Elmoustaquim, a native Moroccan who's spent years showing travelers his country beyond the postcard version, each episode digs into the details that actually matter when you're planning a trip — what a private riad costs versus a hotel, how much a night in the Sahara really runs, which mountain towns are worth the detour, and how to avoid the mistakes first-time visitors make. With over 120+ episodes and counting, Azdean talks directly with hotel owners, desert camp operators, local guides, and fellow travelers to bring you honest, on-the-ground insight you won't find in a glossy brochure or a generic travel blog. Whether you're mapping out your first trip to Morocco or refining an itinerary you've been dreaming about for years, this podcast is built to help you plan smarter — and if you want hands-on help, every episode links to a free 30-minute consultation to start planning your own custom trip.

Planning Your Destination Wedding in Morocco

Siham Nkonda joins us today to share her insight as a wedding and events planner, based out of Marrakech with her company, La Perle Bespoke Events.


Morocco is consistently named one of the world's top wedding destinations (Harper's Bazaar, Brides.com, Pinterest Magazine and more), being a country with so many options for vibrant locations, cultural activities and stunning photographs.


As an overseas excursion for most, it is the type of wedding that will likely require the knowledge and expertise of an experienced local wedding planner, and Siham's passion is to be just that.


You're About to Learn:

  • How it takes a lot of people behind the scenes, a great network of collaborators, to prepare a destination wedding: videographers, photographers, vendors, caterers and more.
  • Who Siham's typical clients are, and why, and the types of wedding packages she offers.
  • The story of henna, how it's done and what role it plays during Moroccan weddings.
  • Who the Negafa is, and how important she is for the bride.
  • The different types of kaftan dresses and how they fit into the ceremony.
  • When to start planning, and how far in advance.
  • Why Siham puts an emphasis on local sourcing and themes for her events.


If you're considering something different, exotic, exciting and unique for your wedding, there are few places more enchanting than Morocco. This episode is the perfect place to get started on your dreaming and planning!
