Lebanon is famous for spectacular, high energy weddings, with a deep wedding industry, ambitious production values and a culture that celebrates late into the night.
The studios below are established teams with real track records, the production firepower these weddings are known for, and experience with international and diaspora couples.
Marry in the dry summer for the most reliable weather, plan around the busy peak season, and choose a planner whose style matches the scale of celebration you want.
For a wedding in Lebanon, work with an established studio used to ambitious production and international guests. Special Events Lebanon brings over twenty five years of experience, Moments Forever has designed high end weddings since 2004, Strawberries and Champagne is a leading destination name led by Jessy Karam, and Ghada Blanco brings over a decade across the Middle East and Europe. The dry summer from late spring to early autumn is the main season, and the leading studios book well ahead.
Real, established studios we rate for Lebanon. The order is our honest read, not a paid placement. Choose the team whose style and approach match the wedding you have in mind.
Over twenty five years of seasoned expertise.
Founded by Hala Jaber, one of Beirut's most established full service event companies, with over twenty five years of experience and thousands of clients across weddings and major events. Best for couples who want a long established team with the standing to deliver large, ambitious celebrations.
High end Lebanese weddings since 2004.
A Beirut studio established in 2004, specialising in the design, planning and execution of customised high end weddings. Best for couples who want an experienced team practised in the polished, production led style Lebanese weddings are known for.
A leading destination name, detail obsessed.
Led by Jessy Karam, a prominent figure in the Lebanese wedding industry, this team is known for unique, personalised weddings and a keen eye for detail. Best for couples who want a destination focused planner with strong design instincts and a personal touch.
Timeless elegance across the region and Europe.
Led by founder and lead planner Ghada Blanco, with over a decade of experience planning weddings across the Middle East and Europe and a reputation for timeless elegance. Best for couples who want a refined, internationally experienced planner comfortable working beyond Lebanon.
A Lebanese planner secures the venue, manages the design and production these weddings are known for, books the caterers, florists, lighting and entertainment, and coordinates large guest lists and diaspora travel. At this scale of celebration, their production command is the whole job.
The wet, cooler months from late autumn to early spring make outdoor celebrations a gamble, while high summer brings strong heat. The reliable window for outdoor weddings runs from May to October, with the peak summer months busiest, so book early.
Most international and diaspora guests fly into Beirut, with venues spread between the city, the coast and the mountains within an hour or two. A planner arranges transfers and a room block, and advises guests on timing and travel.
Lebanese weddings are known for ambitious production, late running celebrations and large guest lists, all of which take serious coordination and budget. Couples planning from abroad also underestimate the value of a local team who can read conditions on the ground, which a planner provides.
Most planners in Lebanon work to a flat planning fee or a percentage of the overall wedding budget, with production led weddings carrying significant supplier costs, reviewed September 2025. Confirm the model and what it includes directly with each studio, since scope varies widely with the scale of the celebration.
A good planner usually pays for itself through better supplier choices, sharper production and a calmer run up to a large, ambitious day. Where lighting, staging and entertainment are central, that value is real. Treat the fee as part of the budget from the start.
Figures are indicative and reviewed September 2025. They move with the size of the wedding, the season and the studio. Confirm fees and inclusions directly with each planner.
Tell us your date, guest count and the kind of wedding you picture. We reply within 48 hours with a tailored shortlist of the right planners for Lebanon, at no cost to you.
Lebanese weddings move fast and run late, so choose a photographer used to large celebrations and low evening light. Ask to see a full wedding rather than a styled shoot, and confirm they can work at the scale you have in mind.
The production led Lebanese style favours bold floral and lighting design, so a planner pairs you with stylists who can deliver at scale. Match the look to your venue, from a city rooftop to a mountain garden.
A planner with standing books the bands, DJs and entertainers who define the energy of a Lebanese wedding and carry it deep into the night. Their relationships with the best acts are part of what you are paying for.
Established studios with real track records lead, including Special Events Lebanon with over twenty five years, Moments Forever since 2004, Strawberries and Champagne and Ghada Blanco. The right choice depends on the scale and style of your wedding.
For peak summer dates, twelve months or more is sensible, and the most sought after venues and planners can go sooner. Off peak dates allow more flexibility, weather permitting.
The reliable dry window runs from May to October, with peak summer busiest and warmest. The cooler, wetter months make outdoor celebrations a gamble, which a planner will advise on.
Expect a flat fee or a percentage of the total budget as of September 2025, with production led weddings carrying significant supplier costs. Confirm the model and inclusions with the studio directly.
Yes. The studios listed here are practised at ambitious production, large guest lists and coordinating guests travelling from abroad, which is a hallmark of Lebanese weddings.
