Wedding Planners in UAE

Ikigaii Planners is a founder-led wedding planning team designing celebrations across all seven emirates: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Each emirate offers something distinct, from Dubai’s iconic skyline to Ras Al Khaimah’s mountains and beaches, and we plan weddings that make the most of wherever you choose to marry.

Led personally by Heeital and Vaibbhav, we’ve planned more than 200 weddings since 2019 for couples from over 15 countries, and our work was recognised at the International Wedding Awards 2026. We handle everything, venue sourcing, décor from our in-house studio, catering, permits, guest logistics and on-the-day coordination, with the founders involved in every wedding we take on.
