In the Business of Marriage
The Dubai Bride Show is the largest wedding and fashion event held anywhere in the Middle East, and this year’s event expects to entice some 50,000 visitors and over 300 exhibitors from every layer of the wedding industry. The Dubai show is the big sister of the Abu Dhabi Bride Show, which took place in February and showed record attendance.
The show has been running for over a decade, welcoming visitors to feast their eyes on top of the line weddings dresses, eveningwear, abayas & sheilas, fashion accessories, beauty products, jewellery, photography, flowers, honeymoon destinations, venues, cakes and all conceivable accoutrements associated with the art of marriage. Basically, this is Wonderland for brides to be and their entourage, who’ll get to see, touch, taste and try before they buy.
Showcasing the Best of Bridal Couture
The Bride Show Dubai hosts a dazzling array of catwalk shows, featuring, in the words of the organizers: “fabulous wedding dresses, inspiring and creative abayas and exquisite evening wear.” Italy’s top bridal couture designers will be unwrapping their newest collections sending their latest creations spinning down the runways. This year’s catwalk shows feature Julea Domani by Zeena Zaki, Scalini Haute Couture, Demetrios, Sposa by Shiva Taba and Meena Rose.
