A dream of getting married in Dubai is a hefty affair to get accomplished. Time involved, costing, and commitment efforts are the important things to look when you have a wedding in the zone of U.A.E.
Being as one of the exotic and luxurious options for a destination wedding, Dubai is the place where one can imagine a grand Arabian-desert themed wedding, and beach wedlock involved with the smooth blend of culture.
But, before planning your wedding in Dubai, there are some of the crucial factors in the aspect of finance and commercial sources that you need to check out on a previous note to make it successful.
Budget
Dubai is a location that comes with a filthy price tag to get married. Though it’s a fantastic option to consider but couple and families should have the average cost ranging from $81,000 (Dh300, 000) to $136,000 (Dh500, 000). And, on the other side, a lavish wedding can cost in millions. Despite the high costs, Arabic, Indian, and Western expatriate couples can throw a $27,000 (Dh100, 000) wedding by going economically on hotel packages, amenities, slashing the guest list, décor, and shopping during off-seasons.
Venue
A peak point where couples and families can be satisfied because almost hotel venues in Dubai offer luxurious facilities. Also, there is a benefit to going to places that are legally allowed to serve alcohol.
Moreover, one needs to decide whether to have a glamorous wedding in a ballroom, open garden setting, or over the beach. So far, it is advisable to book a single venue as early as possible to cut the cost, assure convenience, and avoid the last minute changes or delays. And, if you can probably get a package of the hotels, that’s also a better thing to consider.
Suppliers and Dealers
When you are planning a wedding in Dubai, make sure to hire a wedding planner for it as they can help you better in coordinating with all the details. Especially, when it comes to suppliers and dealers, they know better whom to trust and get the ideal stuff for décor, food, beverages, and other amenities.
Concerning local stores, musicians, DJ artist, boutique shops, makeup artist, and so much more, a wedding planner can let you reach to familiar ones as Dubai has covered everything in the bucket for you!
Bookings and Date Schedule
On and off-seasons are must to consider for all types of events. And, in Dubai, the prime time when a wedding can be hosted best is in October and May. So, make sure to send out dates earlier to let the guests know about your destination because it’s the matter of Visa that is to be considered.
There is a requirement of time to process the Visa within a few days to check beforehand.
Administration
Weddings are not just about living a dream it involves paperwork too, especially destination weddings. For a couple to get legally wed in Dubai, one of the parties needs to be a resident. And, If one person is a resident of U.A.E., then the process of getting married depends on which religion and nationality you are.
Paperwork requires the minimum of a month in the Gulf countries. Before this, you may need permission from your nation, which can also take a few months to complete.
The other option that is also a popular choice for expats, as well as visitors, is a blessing ceremony. It is advisable that you legally marry before hosting the celebration. This will make your wedding day a little less stressful.
