Lara Haddad
The Bride
Garden lover, early riser and the planner of every holiday. Lara still keeps the receipt from that first coffee.
Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
Our story
We met on a rainy afternoon in a small bookshop on Hamra Street, both reaching for the same travel guide. Coffee turned into dinner, dinner into weekend drives up the mountain, and five years later we are ready for our biggest adventure yet. We would love for you to be there.
Karim Saleh
The Groom
Amateur chef, terrible dancer and endlessly patient. Karim proposed on the beach where they spent their first trip.

Guest information
Everything you need to know to enjoy the day with us.
Where can we stay?
We have reserved rooms at a hotel in Broummana, five minutes from the gardens. Mention our names when you book.

What should we wear?
Garden formal: light colours are welcome and flat shoes are a good idea on the lawn. Mountain evenings are cool, so bring a light jacket.
What happens in the evening?
Words from our families, our first dance, the zaffa and dabke with live music until late, and a play corner for the little ones.
Is there parking?
Free parking is available next to the gardens, with a shuttle from the hotel every half hour.
What will be served?
A Lebanese mezze dinner with vegetarian dishes, fresh juices and the wedding cake. Let us know about any allergies.
