What are the Legalities of Getting Married in the UAE?
Way, way back in 2012, we published a feature all about the legalities of getting married in the UAE. As there are so many cultures, religions and nationalities, the rules vastly differ. To this day, we still receive comments on this article from people who are in a wide range of situations. Our advice is always to check with your respective embassies and the courts for the most accurate, up to date information about the documentation and permissions required.
To read the advice in full, see here. More current information was given in 2016 here.
Unique Wedding Favours Available in the UAE
Wedding favours for your guests can almost be an afterthought in the grand scheme of planning your wedding, but it saves a fair bit of stress if you are prepared and have some ideas in mind. From mini succulents to caricatures, this feature from 2014 advised readers on the kind of favours available in the UAE.

The Most Romantic Places to Propose in the UAE
Perhaps there have been some of nervous men browsing the site regularly, as this feature about the most romantic places to propose in the UAE, first published in February 2013, has proven to be one of the most popular!
Of course, new places to propose have emerged in the last four years, but in our opinion, you still can’t go wrong with a stroll on the beach or a picnic in the desert as the perfect setting in which to pop the question. See the original feature here.
Engagement Shoot Locations in the UAE
In 2016, one of the UAE’s most respected and talented wedding photographers, Maria Sundin, revealed some of her favourite picture perfect locations for couples who want a memorable engagement photo shoot. As well as the desert and the beach, there are also plenty of secret locations that every good photographer will know of.

Also from 2016, the popularity of this feature demonstrates to us how important finding THE DRESS is for our bride-to-be readers. As BCME’s founder, Rio, mentions in her interview tomorrow, there are now countless styles and designers available within Dubai, which is a huge step forward from the variety on offer five years ago. New boutiques have sprung up, and more established boutiques have attracted further brands and have expanded their range.
