Lebanese weddings are known to be extravagant; epic ballrooms, magnificent designer wedding dresses, top-notch hairdressers and makeup artists, mouthwatering buffets, dazzling bridal jewelry...you name it! Well, of course not all Lebanese weddings are over-the-top, but in 2016 we witnessed some of the most talked-about unbelievably extravagant Lebanese wedding celebrations, which we've seen thanks to the popular Instagram account @LebaneseWeddings. So we decided to share with you a roundup of the Lebanese brides who wore the best wedding dresses in 2016. Start scrolling through, and brace yourselves for major (blingy!) bridal inspiration.

2. Yasmina Zaatari had the kind of wedding that was literally the talk of the town. She bedazzled in a custom-made Zuhair Murad wedding dress, and she looked even more beautiful with Bassam Fattouh and Tony El-Mendelek's makeup and hair touches.

3. Carine Abi Akar's wedding dress is a living proof that sometimes bigger is better! Just take a look at her custom-made Rami Kadi wedding dress. That endless back and embellished veil - wow!

4. Lolwa Al-Obaid had a beautiful Lebanese wedding this summer, and she couldn't have picked a more beautiful gown. Her wedding dress was designed by Azzi & Osta, and her bridal look was so perfect thanks to Hala Ajam's makeup and Hussein Safwan's hair-styling.

5. This is certainly an extravagant wedding dress that you just can't miss. Najarian Gaelle picked Ashi Studio to design her wedding dress, and the result was truly magnificent. Of course, Tony El-Mendelek and Roula Riachi added their magical touches for the perfect look.
