Venue hire for a wedding in Lebanon runs about $7,000 to $30,000, with food at $60 to $120 a guest before drinks, according to a planner quoted by The Beiruter in June 2026. Qasr Noun's full package in Ain Anub is priced in the lower half of that range, with the night's production included.
Most Lebanese venues do not publish their prices, and we do not publish an exact price list either: a quote depends on the date and the guest count. What we can do is show you every published figure we could find, explain what moves the price, and say plainly where Qasr Noun sits.
Every market figure below comes from the Lebanese press or from rate cards the venues published themselves, checked on 19 October 2026. None of them is a Qasr Noun price.
How much does a wedding venue cost in Lebanon?
The widest published range comes from a planner who told The Beiruter in June 2026 that venue rental runs from $7,000 to $30,000, with food at $60 to $120 a guest and drinks at $6 to $20 more. Two venues publish their own cards, and both sit near the bottom of that range.
| What | Published price | Source, year |
|---|---|---|
| Venue rental, mid to high-end | $7,000 to $30,000 | The Beiruter, 2026 |
| Château Cana, Bhamdoun, outdoor rental | $6,000 weekdays; $7,000 Friday to Sunday | Château Cana card, 2023 |
| Pleine Nature, Mar Roukoz, venue rental | $8,500 | Pleine Nature offer, 2026 |
| Pleine Nature, weekday buffet and open bar, 150 guests or more | $105 to $115 a guest | Pleine Nature offer, 2026 |
| Food, mid to high-end | $60 to $120 a guest, before drinks | The Beiruter, 2026 |
| Drinks | $6 to $20 a guest more | The Beiruter, 2026 |
A 2023 card may have moved since. Ask every venue for its 2027 figure in writing. For the whole wedding, line by line (photography, flowers, music, the bride), read what a wedding costs in Lebanon.
Where Qasr Noun sits
The full package at Qasr Noun is priced in the lower half of the published $7,000 to $30,000 range for venue hire. It is a package, not a bare rental. For one price per event it covers:
- the estate for the whole day, until 1:30 AM, with no extra-hour charge;
- sound and lighting;
- dry ice and cold-spark volcanoes;
- chairs and tables;
- a 150 kVA generator, so the power never drops;
- parking organised at the gate;
- restrooms for your guests.
Food and beverage by our own team is optional and quoted for your guest count: a full buffet with chefs on site, ten waiters and a captain, service cutlery and a welcome drink for every guest. The exact figure for your date comes on WhatsApp, itemised. Pre-booking for summer 2027 is open, and couples who confirm a 2027 date before 31 December 2026 are quoted at founding terms. Every line of the package is on the packages page.
What moves the price of a wedding venue in Lebanon
Two weddings at the same venue can be quoted very differently. Five things move the number most.
| What moves it | Why | What to ask |
|---|---|---|
| The date | Summer Saturdays are the peak. Château Cana's 2023 card charges $1,000 less on weekdays. A bride marrying in late September told Al-Modon her wedding came to about $15,000, more than half below what organisers usually charge. | Is a weekday or a late-season date priced differently? |
| The guest count | Food is priced per guest, at $60 to $120 before drinks (The Beiruter, 2026). Past a point, the guest list moves the total more than the venue fee does. | Is food priced per guest, and what is the minimum? |
| What the price includes | A cheaper rental that leaves out the generator, the furniture, the sound or the restrooms can end up costing more than a package that includes them. | Ask for a list of what is in, and what is extra. |
| The end time | Lebanese weddings run late. An hourly overtime fee after midnight adds up fast. | Until what time, and what does each extra hour cost? At Qasr Noun: 1:30 AM, no extra-hour charge. |
| The extras | Entertainment runs $3,000 to $30,000 (An-Nahar, 2024). Photography runs $2,000 to $6,000, and table flowers $50 to $350 an arrangement (The Beiruter, 2026). | Which suppliers are included, and which can you bring? |
Costs that are easy to miss
- Power. State electricity in Lebanon is unreliable, so ask how many kVA the generator is, who pays for the fuel and for how many hours. At Qasr Noun, a 150 kVA generator is in the package.
- Valet and parking. The official valet fee was capped at LBP 400,000 a car in January 2026 (LBCI). Ask who organises the cars and who pays. At Qasr Noun, parking is organised at the gate.
- Restrooms. Outdoor venues sometimes rent them per event. At Qasr Noun, restrooms for guests are included.
- Overtime. Ask for the hourly rate after the official end. At Qasr Noun, the night is yours until 1:30 AM.
- Staff meals and supplier access. Photographers, the band and the zaffe troupe eat too. Ask whether their meals are charged, and whether outside suppliers pay an access fee.
- Permits. Fireworks and loud music in the open air may need the municipality's approval. Ask who applies and who pays.
- Getting home. A mountain venue may need a shuttle for guests coming from Beirut. Plan it with the drive times on our page about a wedding venue near Beirut.
The full list, with the questions to ask, is in our checklist for choosing a wedding venue in Lebanon.
How a Qasr Noun quote works
- Send your date and guest count on WhatsApp, +961 3 697 772. Tell us the day of the week and whether you want food and beverage.
- We send the package for that date, itemised, with the food and beverage priced for your guest count if you want it.
- Visit the estate, any day, by appointment. Wedding planners can ask for a private preview.
- A 35% down payment confirms the date. The payment schedule is written into the contract.
Affordable wedding venues in Lebanon: where the savings are
A lower price usually comes from the calendar and the guest list, not from cutting what keeps the night running.
- Look at weekdays. The one published card that splits the week charges less on weekdays.
- Look past the peak. A late-September wedding reported by Al-Modon in 2025 came to about half of what organisers usually charge. Our month-by-month weather guide shows how the evenings compare.
- Trim the list before the menu. With food priced per guest, twenty fewer guests save more than a cheaper menu.
- Compare packages, not rentals. Add the generator, furniture, sound, restrooms and parking to any bare rental before you compare it with a package.
- Consider a smaller celebration. A Katb Kteb or an intimate wedding needs less of everything. See small wedding venues in Lebanon and a Katb Kteb venue.
Quoted and paid in dollars
Since the 2019 crisis, Lebanese weddings are quoted and paid in US dollars, and every card cited on this page is in dollars. Ask whether a quote is fixed once you sign, and get it in writing.
