How much does ceremony cost per person in the UAE?

From AED 290 per person excluding 5% VAT at the largest volume band, up to AED 860 per person for the smallest groups on the most involved programme. Every package is priced at three volume bands — the per-person figure falls as the group grows, because coach, coordinator, media crew and venue buyout are fixed costs spread across more people. All 6 prices are published on the package pages, not quoted on request.

What group size do these programmes take?

Between 30 and 600 people depending on the programme. Each package states its own minimum and maximum, and its minimum chargeable persons — a smaller group is still sold to, it is simply billed at that minimum.

What time of year can these run?

Oct – Apr, Year-round, Ramadan. Season is stated on every package, and the summer-safe and year-round programmes are fully air-conditioned rather than outdoor programmes with a caveat attached.

Which emirates do you run ceremony programmes in?

Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah. Most programmes collect from the client's own office by coach and the transfer time is already inside the published timeline.

How far in advance do we need to book?

21 days at the shortest for this category; longer for large groups and for anything with a venue buyout. The booking lead time is stated on every package page. Ramadan and December dates book out first.
