Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 23 April 2018 – A dazzling pearl of the sea surrounded by a shining crown of skyscrapers, The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai invites residents from near and far to join in a weekend of regal celebrations in ode to the much anticipated Royal Wedding of His Royal Highness Prince Harry of Wales and Ms Meghan Markle.
A perfectly paired setting that bares all the hallmarks of classic Ritz-Carlton hospitality, guests can indulge in a number of experiences across the Royal Wedding Weekend that pair legendary luxury, unrivalled levels of service; delivered with personality and warmth.
The Royal Afternoon Tea
Sparkling chandeliers and the inherent charm of The Lobby Lounge, transport guests to a time of yesteryears, paying homage to an age-old, refined British tradition, by marrying a quintessential afternoon tea experience and a Royal Wedding Party. Over vibrant conversation and an enhanced screening of the wedding proceedings, white-gloved Lobby Butlers and Ambassadors will entertain the guests with a rich menu of premium, free flowing premium bubbly, English breakfast tea, and the classic favorites of tea time rituals. Specialty pairings such as Coronation chicken with parsley cream, smoked Scottish salmon, egg mayonnaise and cucumber and cream cheese, round off the savory selection.
A symbolic curtsy and bow to the Royal occasion, guests can sample a Royal wedding cake, designed on the soon-to-be-wed Royals flavorings of lemon and elderflower with rich buttercream and garnished with fresh flowers. While other dessert highlights include Battenberg cake, Bakewell tart, Cherry trifle and warm plain and raisin scones with Cornish clotted cream, lemon curd, and homemade strawberry preserve. An opulent spread suitable for the occasion!
Not forgetting the gentlemen on this occasion, who potentially don’t find traditional sweet delicacies and dainty sandwiches to their taste, The Library Bar will transform into a “grooms room” with the opportunity to congregate over British malts and cigars, and a specially crafted menu featuring savories of beef tartare and wagyu sliders, where all palates are catered for.
