My beautiful community,  

I am beyond excited to invite you on my first ever #wemoon - a chance to go to on our dream vacation without waiting for the right reason or relationship. A chance to get like-minded women together from around the globe to visit one of the most magical settings- Morocco - and do it bougie style! 

Travel has always reinvigorated my soul and given me understanding and love for my own unique journey, and organizing a group of women to do it together will be so powerful. I know this is going to feel more special than a girl's trip...it means so much more. 

With Morocco's colors, textiles, food, and setting I have no doubt this will be one of the most memorable trips of our lives. I've incorporated my style in every single part of the planning process from hotels, meals, spa days, tours, shopping, food, and I even hired a photographer for us. :)

I am so excited to meet some of you in person and to bond and build memories together. I believe this retreat will be an unforgettable experience that will leave you feeling more complete. There are limited spots available so be sure to sign up as soon as you can!

FAQs

How do I apply?

We want to create a safe space that allows for a great group dynamic. We therefore ask that you apply for a place. We have been overwhelmed with interest for this trip, and unfortunately we can only take a small group of women. The minimum group size will be 12, the maximum will be 16. Please apply and we will be in touch if your application is successful. You will then have 24 hours to secure your place, before the spot is offered to another applicant.

How will we experience awe?

Everyday you will be inspired and exposed to a stunning city, architecture, philosophy. This itinerary is brimming at the gills with history and inspiration. You’ll experience medinas, desert landscapes, mountains, cities that inspired the greats. This is the trip of a lifetime. Britt has designed the trip so it will be an amazing way to make life-long friendships.

How is the trip themed?

The trip is designed to expose you to as much stimuli and inspiration as possible. While our focus is on luxury and design, thanks to our host, Brittany Allyn, we will visit icons of architecture, design, gastronomy and indulgence. This can all be used as a jumping point for creativity, reading, and writing. We like our trips to be eye-opening and transformative, so will send you a reading list prior to the trip so you will learn the words that Morocco has inspired.

How do I get there?

Our journey begins and ends in Marrakesh so fly into RAK, Marrakesh Menara Airport. Your tour guide will pick you up via one group departure in a private shuttle and take you to your accommodation. Flight details are needed 30 days in advance. Formal activities start at 4pm, so you’ll have time to relax for the afternoon and check in at 2pm to shower after your flight.

What is the rooming configuration?

There are two options - a shared option on a twin share basis, so you get to know your fellow travellers and have a bestie for the entire journey - as well as a private option. Private rooms are limited, so let us know your preference and we will try our best to accommodate.

When should I book my flights?
