Last year, Vera Wang sponsored iWED and presented their latest collection at the show

The 5th Qatar International Wedding Show and Exhibition (iWED) will take place from April 4 to 7 next year, Qatar Expo has announced.
The exhibition showcases everything required for weddings, offering brides and grooms to be the chance to see some of the latest trends from international designers, as well as providing young and emerging designers with a platform from which to show their work.
Chief operating officer of Qatar Expo, organisers of the event, Georges Saliba, said: “Even before the formal announcement today, half the iWED show has already been reserved by exhibitors.”
“The huge interest in iWED, Qatar’s national wedding show, confirms Qatar’s growing reputation as a hub of fashion and culture,” he added.
Saliba said: “More than 100 international and regional wedding specialists are anticipated to exhibit, covering all the requirements for the perfect wedding; from flowers and wedding cakes, to haute couture wedding fashion and finding the perfect entertainment and ultimate venue.”
Last year, internationally renowned designer Vera Wang sponsored the event that drew a crowd of 24,000 visitors from all over the world.
Guest of honour was designer Walid Atallah, who entered the Guinness Book of Records for his design of a wedding dress worth $2mn.
“The tremendous success of iWED in previous years, teamed with trendsetting young Qatari fashion designers making names for themselves and the growing appreciation for elegant and stylish weddings in the region, can only make next year’s event even more ground-breaking and prestigious than ever before,” added Saliba.
