It's one thing to say you got married at the beautiful Burj Al Arab, but it's totally something else to say you opted for the 'Wedding in the Skies' package. For a price starting at $55,000, the iconic Dubai hotel will turn its 695' high helicopter pad into a wedding venue, presumably for a very small audience. On their big day, couples will get the chance to arrive in the most dramatic of fashions by either a [Rolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunset-tower) Royce Phantom or an Agusta 109 aircraft.

With Wedding in the Skies, couples will also be able to make arrangements for their [honeymoon suite, spa treatments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comprehensive-skincare-package), as well as get private etiquette and dance lessons. Soon-to-be-married couples will also get the opportunity to work with a perfumer to develop a bespoke wedding scent to make memories from the special day last even longer.
