    Fabulous!
    It has been fabulous. These two days been absolutely amazing. It has been so fruitful and all the meetings & networking, it has been an amazing experience. And more so we love the whole Arab culture and the way you promoted the destination itself has been absolutely amazing from A-Z, from the food, from the music, from the shows, from the attendees, from the speakers – all has showcased Dubai so well and we are very happy about it.

    Insightful!
    It has been very enlightening for me. I found it very insightful because I made a lot of connections with wedding planners that I would have never met probably unless they came to the property.

    Creative & Fabulous!
    This is our 4th year at DWP and it just keeps getting better. UAE in general is an amazing destination because it has it all – deserts, beaches and everything, and Dubai specifically is an awesome destination for any event. For us as hoteliers, DWP is a starting point to build relationships & connections. You make everyone special.

    Stimulating!
    This is my first time at DWP. I have attended several conferences before, but this has been the most international experience I have had with the wedding industry. It has been great to meet really high quality planners and vendors from every corner of the globe here in Dubai which Oh My God is opulence!! Dubai is next level in terms of intensity in the wedding industry. It has been really fun to see the caliber of planners that are working here, the kind of money that is being spent on weddings here, and the destination has become what it has in the last 10 years, so it is exciting to be here and experience it.

    Weddings, Weddings, Weddings!
    I was very excited to hear that DWP is happening in Dubai as Middle East is a very big market for us. Good sessions, great appointments and as usual great evening functions so it was a pleasure being here and I am looking forward for next year. You have great speakers every year and it gives us the opportunity to meet them, spend time with them and be close to them.

    WOW!
    It has just impressed me for my lifetime. Thank you for this opportunity. This is our first time at the DWP conference and whatever we had heard about from everywhere, it has definitely exceeded our expectations. So we really loved being a part of it.

    Enriching!
    It is always amazing. I get to meet new people, new collaborators and it is an enriching experience. It is necessary to have such forums as DWP and I am always happy to be a part of this platform. Everything is very well planned and executed. DWP brings you close to industry stalwarts. You can learn from them, exchange ideas and discuss challenges. So if you are serious about wedding planning & the wedding industry then DWP is your go-to forum.

    The high level of registrants and the networking at this level, I don’t think there is any other global Congress that offers this kind of opportunity. The background of the people are so varied it is great! I have really enjoyed every aspect.
