With destination weddings becoming increasingly popular over the past few decades – and Dubai cementing its reputation as one of the world’s most sought-after holiday destinations – it’s no surprise that more and more couples are choosing the city as their preferred setting to tie the knot. Among its most coveted venues is Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach: a prestigious waterfront haven that captures the very best of the city and provides an idyllic backdrop for couples to say “I do.” Read on to discover everything you need to know about hosting a wedding at Four Seasons Dubai.
Why Dubai?
By now, there are very few people on earth who have not, at one point or another, considered either moving to or travelling to Dubai to experience just what it is that makes the city such a captivating proposition.
With the desert climate ensuring bright, sunny skies almost year-round, the city has become a magnet for the wealthy. Dubai has also experienced a huge surge in residents in recent times, and the government has responded impressively, ensuring an expansive infrastructure network has been developed in order to serve both residents and visitors.
This includes a range of five-star hotels, high-end beach resorts, Michelin-starred restaurants and upscale shopping malls. Additionally, world-class attractions such as the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall and easy access to nearby Abu Dhabi mean that Dubai is now one of the most in-demand destinations anywhere in the world.
Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach Resort Overview
As one of two Four Seasons addresses in the city, the Jumeirah location benefits from being nestled serenely on the Arabian Gulf coast. Of course, this means direct beach access and the exclusive hospitality that comes with the Four Seasons brand.
Accommodations encompass stylish guest rooms, premium speciality rooms and suites, while speciality suites represent the zenith of the offerings. Highlights include the Royal Suite, a 600 m² palace with expansive interiors for entertaining, treatment rooms, full marble bathrooms and sweeping sea and beach views.
The resort also benefits from world-class amenities, such as adults' and kids’ pools, direct access to Jumeirah Beach – with beach and poolside cabanas – a state-of-the-art gym and spa, tennis and padel courts and more than 10 on-site restaurants and lounges, including the exceptional ‘Restaurant Village’ – where Michelin-recommended restaurants await.
The hotel also boasts a variety of further lifestyle amenities, such as the business centre, a salon, multilingual concierge services, babysitting and transportation and activities booking – ideal for those who are only in town for a short time.

The space can easily host up to 320 banquet guests, while an extra 100 can be added for a reception.
Dana Garden

With 630 m² of space for up to 400 guests, the space functions as the ideal setting for cocktail receptions under the stars or elegant al fresco dining — all infused with the romance and serenity of the waves lapping against the Dubai coastline.
Bridal Suites
These well-proportioned suites have been carefully crafted with comfort and, of course, romance, in mind. Newlyweds are gifted a complimentary stay in a Sea-View suite on their wedding night, where expansive views of the Arabian Gulf add to the dream-like setting – the ideal place to spend your first night as a married couple.
