Wedding venues in Lebanon, region by region.

19 October 202612 min read

Lebanon's wedding venues range from hotel ballrooms in Beirut and beach resorts along the coast to garden venues in the Metn and Keserwan, wineries in Batroun, Bhamdoun and the Bekaa, and mountain estates in the Chouf and Aley, among them Qasr Noun in Ain Anub. Choose by season, guest count and the drive from Beirut.

We are Qasr Noun, a restored estate in Ain Anub, Aley, and we appear here like everyone else. The other venues come from public wedding listings and venue websites, chosen to show the range in each region. Every entry links to its source. Inside each region the order is geographical, not a ranking.

Listings checked on 19 October 2026. Capacities and policies are as each listing states them; venues change them, so confirm every detail directly before you book.

How to choose a wedding venue in Lebanon

Lists of the best or top 10 wedding venues in Lebanon rarely say what they measured, and no public data would support a ranking. Four things decide the right venue: the setting, the season, your guest count, and how far your guests will drive at night.

SettingWhere you find itSuitsAsk about
Hotel ballroom or wedding hallBeirut, Broummana, Byblos, Zahle, Jiyeh, TyreLarge guest lists, winter dates, guests who stay the nightExclusive catering, end time, parking

Garden venueThe Metn, Keserwan, Jbeil, Batroun, the BekaaBig outdoor lists, separate cocktail and dinner areasLighting, ground underfoot, cover if it rains

Outdoor or indoor. Outdoor venues work best from June to September, when the hills are close to rain-free; late May and early October are milder but can bring rain (see the best time to get married in Lebanon). For winter, look at indoor wedding halls: hotel ballrooms, or garden venues with an indoor room, such as Jardin de Vie or Château Cana. For open air, read about choosing an outdoor wedding venue in Lebanon.

Unusual settings. If you want something other than a hall, this guide includes three wineries, a castle, Couvent St Jean's 250-year-old chapel, and palace gardens above Sidon. Couples drawn to old buildings will find more in our guide to heritage wedding venues in Lebanon, which we do not repeat here.

Wedding venues by region

Ten regions, north along the coast from Beirut, then Mount Lebanon, the Bekaa and the south: Beirut · the Metn · Jounieh and Keserwan · Jbeil · Batroun · Tripoli and the North · Aley · the Chouf · Zahle and the Bekaa · Saida, Tyre and the South.

Beirut: ballrooms and the seafront

The city offers hotel ballrooms, high floors over the sea, and beach resorts at Jnah, with no mountain road for guests who fly in. Sursock Palace's gardens in Achrafieh are covered in our heritage guide. For venues a short drive out, see wedding venues near Beirut.

The Metn: the hills above the city

The Metn climbs from the eastern suburbs to Beit Mery, Broummana and Bikfaya: hotels close to the city, gardens higher up. More of the governorate is in our guide to wedding venues in Mount Lebanon.

Jounieh and Keserwan: from the bay to the ski slopes

Keserwan runs from the bay at Jounieh and Kaslik up through Faitroun to Faraya and Kfardebian, so one district holds both seaside and high-mountain weddings.

Jbeil (Byblos): the beach and the gardens above it

Around the old port town, beach resorts sit at sea level, and garden venues with sea views sit in the villages just inland.

Batroun: the coast, the villages and a winery

Batroun pairs a busy summer coast with quiet hill villages a short drive inland.

Tripoli and the North

In the north the choice runs from small hotels in Tripoli and El Mina to the mountain town of Ehden.

Aley: estates and wineries above Beirut

The Aley District rises behind Beirut and the airport. Ain Anub, for example, is about 15 to 20 km by road from central Beirut and 14 km from the airport, by OSRM routing measured on 13 October 2026 (where is Ain Anub). More in our guide to wedding venues in Aley.

The Chouf: stone towns and the coast

Inland are the historic towns of Deir el Qamar and Beiteddine; on the coast south of the airport are Damour, Jiyeh and Rmeileh. The Chouf's palaces, Mir Amin and Qasr Tabet among them, are in our heritage guide.

Zahle and the Bekaa: hotels, gardens and vineyards

Over the mountains, the Bekaa offers space: hotel halls in Zahle and Chtaura, large gardens, and vineyard estates.

Saida, Tyre and the South

The south has the sea and two ancient port cities: palace gardens above Sidon, a hill town at Maghdoucheh, and the old harbour of Tyre.

Wedding venue prices in Lebanon

Most venues quote on request, and almost none publish 2027 rates. The figures below are the published ones from our line-by-line guide to what a wedding costs in Lebanon, and nothing more.

ItemPublished priceSource, year
Venue rental, mid to high-end$7,000 to $30,000The Beiruter, 2026
Château Cana, Bhamdoun, outdoor rental$6,000 weekdays; $7,000 Friday to Sunday; ceremony area +$700; coordinator $400, obligatoryChâteau Cana card, 2023
Pleine Nature, Mar Roukoz, venue rental$8,500Pleine Nature offer, 2026
Pleine Nature, venue with buffet and open bar, Monday to Thursday, 150+ guests$105 to $115 per guestPleine Nature offer, 2026
Food, mid to high-end$60 to $120 per guest, plus $6 to $20 for drinksThe Beiruter, 2026

Both published cards include sound, lighting and generators but differ on furniture, staff and hours, so compare what each quote covers, not only its total. Qasr Noun shares its prices privately; see what the wedding package includes.

From a long list to a shortlist

Pick three venues, not thirty. Visit each one at the hour your wedding will happen, stand where dinner will be served, and ask every venue the same questions before you book: generator size, end time, parking, rain plan, exclusive suppliers. If most of your guests fly in, read our guide to a destination wedding in Lebanon. If the list is short, see the notes on a small wedding venue in Lebanon.

Questions, answered

What are the best wedding venues in Lebanon?

No published ranking compares them fairly. Venues listed for weddings include the InterContinental Phoenicia and Le Gray in Beirut, Couvent St Jean in Keserwan, Edde Sands in Byblos, Château Cana and Qasr Noun in Aley, and Saray Nassib Basha above Sidon. The right one depends on your season, guest count and the drive.

How much does a wedding venue cost in Lebanon?

A planner quoted by The Beiruter in June 2026 put venue rental at $7,000 to $30,000. Two published cards: Château Cana charged $6,000 on weekdays and $7,000 Friday to Sunday in 2023, and Pleine Nature's 2026 rental is $8,500. Most venues quote 2027 dates on request.

Where can I have a beach wedding in Lebanon?

Beach resorts listed for weddings include Kempinski Summerland in Jnah, Edde Sands in Byblos, San Stephano and Phare du Nord in Batroun, and Jiyeh Marina Resort in Jiyeh. In Tyre, Dar Alma, a small guesthouse, has a beach terrace. Ask about the sun at ceremony time and music limits near guest rooms.

Are there indoor wedding venues in Lebanon for winter?

Yes. Hotel ballrooms are the usual choice: the InterContinental Phoenicia and Le Gray in Beirut, Edde Sands in Byblos, Jiyeh Marina Resort, and the Cristal Grand Kadri in Zahle. Some garden venues keep an indoor room, such as Jardin de Vie's ballroom in Mastita and Château Cana's arcaded room in Bhamdoun.

Are there wedding venues in Aley?

Yes. Château Cana and Cherry Blossom Boutique Hotel are in Bhamdoun, and Hightower Castle is in Baysour. Qasr Noun, a restored estate in Ain Anub, opens for weddings in summer 2027. Ain Anub is about 15 to 20 km by road from central Beirut.

Which wedding venues are closest to Beirut?

Inside the city, hotels such as the InterContinental Phoenicia, Le Gray and Kempinski Summerland. Just outside, the Metn, with Beit Mery and Mar Roukoz, and the Aley District, where Ain Anub is about 14 km by road from the airport. Allow extra time for Saturday evening traffic on every route.

Private visits to Qasr Noun in Ain Anub are by appointment. Pre-booking for 2027 dates is open.
