Aude & Charles: a Beldi Country Club wedding
Aude and Charles brought their friends and family together in Marrakech for two days at Beldi Country Club. A welcome evening came first, followed by wedding preparations, a church ceremony and a return to the gardens for portraits, drinks and dancing. Here is their wedding, from the first arrivals to the last night.
In this story
The welcome evening
Musicians welcome the guests, conversations carry on outdoors and lanterns begin to glow. Beneath the arches, the tables are ready for the first evening together. Aude and Charles join their friends and family as the celebrations get underway.
Getting ready
The next morning begins with shoes, jewellery and a tie being adjusted. Charles gets ready with his friends while Aude finishes her hair and makeup. There is time for a few portraits and laughter together before everyone heads to the church.
The church ceremony
The light changes inside the church. Friends and family watch Aude and Charles together at the front. Readings, joined hands and guests’ reactions tell the story alongside the wider views of the ceremony. Afterwards, everyone gathers outside around the newlyweds.
Together in the gardens
Back at Beldi Country Club, we take a little time for portraits. Earthen walls, doorways and bougainvillea offer different settings just a few steps apart. Aude and Charles have a moment together before rejoining their guests.
Cocktails and dinner
Guests gather for drinks as the light falls across the gardens. Conversations pick up again and glasses are filled. Beneath the lanterns, the long dinner tables are waiting. The arches, flowers and details of the room give Beldi a different atmosphere after dark.
The evening party
A fire performance draws everyone’s attention before the celebrations move to the dance floor. The couple make their entrance, guests gather around them and the dancing continues. Outside, the lanterns and illuminated gardens bring these two days at Beldi Country Club to a close.
