Location and good service are the two most important factors when it comes to planning a wedding or a social event. Of course, other details are also significant, but if you choose the wrong place, most of your arrangements may go unnoticed. Hightower Castle is one of the most sought-after Outdoor wedding venues Lebanon as it offers both an enchanting location and excellent service by professional staff.

Positioned on top of a high hill overlooking the Baysour village and several more picturesque towns and villages in the Aley region, the Hightower Castle is now taking bookings for the summer of 2016. You can reserve dates for an unforgettable outdoor wedding, a birthday party, a family gathering, an anniversary celebration, a school reunion or any other social event. Additionally, the venue is suitable for various other events, such as music concerts, exhibitions, fashion shows, dinner galas, conferences, staff parties and many other corporate events.

An Events Venue in Lebanon with Natural Beauty and Style

The Hightower Castle has been recently renovated mainly on its exterior, while its rooms are expected to be available to visitors by 2018. However, a beautifully decorated small interior hall is available for wedding, family or business photo shoots. Except for its stylish furniture, the hall features a scale model of one of the Castle’s turrets which is a unique setting for amazing photos.

On the other hand, the grounds of the Castle are more than ready to host all kinds of events in a pleasant and elegant way as the gardens have been beautifully landscaped. All along the pathways, there are tall, well-trimmed trees together with fine blooming bushes and shrubs and colourful flower beds, while just a few metres away from the main door to the Castle, there is an impressive water fountain surrounded by planters with gorgeous flowers.

The reception area, just before the main gate to the Castle, is another spectacular part of the Castle’s ground. It is a large area of green lawn, bushes and trees which is called the Lion’s Court because of the large, white, guardian lion statues that are dispersed here. It is the place to welcome your guests in the most prestigious way.

The First Years of Hightower Castle

Hightower Castle was not built to be an events venue. It was designed and constructed in 1962 by a distinguished Lebanese engineer, Hussein Kaedbey, who could sense the war coming and wanted a secure home for his family. That is why apart from his beautiful, large home he constructed a huge fortified wall all around his property, created a watchtower near its gate and had an underground tunnel made as an escape route in case of emergency.

After Kaidbey’s death in 1975, the property was sold to Kamal and Ghada Aridi, but during the civil war it suffered plenty of damages. After the war in 1990, Aridi decided to turn the large building into a real castle by adding high turrets on its corners. It took the owners many years of hard work and a lot of money to turn the old home and its grounds to the majestic Castle we see today.
