Desert Resort & Spa will ensure your special day is picture-perfect<br />

Tucked away in Dubai’s majestic<br />

rolling dunes, Bab Al Shams<br />

Desert Resort & Spa is an<br />

Arabian Nights fantasy plucked from<br />

your imagination and a coveted location<br />

for a destination wedding. Whether<br />

ceremony or a lively celebration<br />

surrounded by family and friends,<br />

this palatial resort will turn your<br />

wedding dreams into reality. Here’s<br />

the pick of our favourite venues…<br />

THE GREAT OUTDOORS<br />

Exchange vows amid the natural<br />

wonders of the desert at Sunset Point.<br />

The alfresco venue offers a simple<br />

setting that showcases the stunning<br />

surroundings and can hold up to<br />

240 of your nearest and dearest. You<br />

could also opt for the Masala Rooftop<br />

Lounge, which is ideal for star-lit<br />

ceremonies, with its panoramic view<br />

of the resort that's best enjoyed while<br />

sitting down to a sumptuous feast.<br />

Meanwhile, couples who want to go<br />

all out with the invitations should<br />

book the Arena. True to its name, the<br />

venue sprawls over 20,000 square<br />

metres and can fit up to 6,000 guests.<br />

AN INTIMATE AFFAIR<br />

Adorned with lush foliage, Al Shurouq<br />

and the Garden Café offers total privacy<br />

with its Arabesque furnishings, elegant<br />

floral centerpieces and personalised<br />

details. Alternatively, contemporary<br />

elegance meets old-world charm at Le<br />

Dune, while Falcon Courtyard beckons<br />

hopeless romantics with its oriental<br />

appeal and secluded setting that<br />

accommodates a modest 30 guests.<br />

A CULTURAL TWIST<br />

Fascinate your guests by holding<br />

your ceremony at the unique setting<br />

of Al Hadheerah Restaurant. With<br />

a traditional tanoura and belly<br />

dancing performances, as well<br />

as a live Arabian band, you'll have<br />

everyone on their feet in minutes.<br />

private, Al Hadheerah Rooftop can<br />
