Hi Carole, Hope you are well. Just wanted to thank you and your staff for all the hard work and effort that you put into making our wedding day the most perfect day that it could have been. For us, it couldn’t have been better. From the outset, some eighteen months before the day we married, from our first contact with you, the communication was great. You always kept us well informed were so helpful in answering all of our questions and the information that you provided was very comprehensive. On finally arriving in beautiful Turkey, we had already pre-arranged to meet with you and on doing so we had a very pleasant chat over a few drinks in the harbour at sunset which was lovely. Although our original plans for our wedding had to be slightly changed, nothing was too much trouble for you. Our trip to Antalya with Ann was thoroughly enjoyable and a lot less painful a day trip than we originally anticipated!! (And the breakfast was fabulous..!) From visiting with the consulate in Antalya to the choosing of the cake in Fethiye, everything ran so smoothly and was so hassle free. The day itself again ran like clockwork, everything was taken care of by you and your team. Sharon took care of hair for my mum and myself and did an amazing job. The ceremony was absolutely wonderful, made even more perfect by the lovely location of the beach. The menu that we selected was delicious and there was plenty to go around. The cake was fabulous and almost too good to cut and tasted as good as it looked..! The photographer was great, very professional and taking pictures the whole time, we didn’t even realise how many he had taken – until we looked at the CD!! We would just like to thank you again for making our wedding day such a perfect day for us both. We had a wonderful time and will cherish the memories forever. Lots of Love and see you next you next time we are in Turkey. Claire & Paul (Mr & Mrs Miller)...xxxx P_MILLER2@sky.com 26th September 2009

What we wanted, where we wanted and the way that we wanted – Carol and her staff got it to a tee! Olu Deniz and the surrounding area has been our destination for a few years now and it only made sense that as a place we loved so much, it should be the place where we got married. We'd previously been on some excellent excursions with Carole and this was where we saw she did weddings – fantastic! Initial enquiries turned quickly into a confirmed date and colour choices and Carole kept us up to date with plenty of information & necessary details throughout. Before the big day, we were driven by Ann to the British consulate and a number of other places to get all the formal paper work done, Ann were a star and we had a really good day and everything went smoothly. We’d opted for a yacht wedding and it had been decorated beautifully – we didn’t want much, we wanted an easy going, relaxed day. We wanted to be picked up together and not even have a hierarchy of table arrangements – we weren’t fussy over how the tables were decorated or all the extras that Carole’s team are so ready to do – I do think they thought we were a bit mad, but they listened and did exactly what we needed which is what counts! The food was delicious - all our guests, and we did have some fussy ones, went back for seconds and were kept entertained all evening with good music, great company and a really helpful, friendly crew. Sarah, who was the British coordinator on board, translated the traditional Turkish vows and was generally, warm, helpful and good fun all evening. This company and all the staff were a delight to organise & spend our wedding with and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them if you’d like a wedding in this area. Thank you, thank you, and thank you!!!!! xxx Lorna & Luke Mattocks lornamattocks@hotmail.com lukemattocks@hotmail.com 24 Sept 2009

Hi Carole and team Happy new year to you all. I bet you were all glad for the rest at the end of a very busy season! I have been visiting Turkey for about 14 years and always dreamt of getting married on the beach. When we saw your advert whilst on a Carole's excursion it seemed to good to be true. When we returned home from that holiday we got the ball rolling straight away, and couldn't believe we were going to get our dream wedding and such a great price! For all the years enjoying the beautiful Turkish sunshine it had to be the year we get married that we see terrible weather! It was soo bad that it started to look like we wouldn't get our dream wedding after all! Carole and the team worked so hard finding an alternative venue, which was beautiful, but not the reason why we decided to get married in Turkey. The hardest decision to make was go for the beach and keep everything crossed that the weather would be on our side. IT WAS!! The trip to Antalya, we knew was going to be a long day, but it was well organised. We got through the consulate and legalities with ease and was able to choose our cake and my flowers on the same day. Our actual wedding was brilliant, starting with a huge sigh of relief that the sun was shining, and was still shining at lunch time. That's when We knew it was still going to go ahead on the beach. The beach was beautifully decorated and was just as we had imagined. The flowers were perfect, the food was delicious, the cake was just right, and the belly dancer was the icing on the cake. We were soo happy with the way everything turned out and were really pleased with our photo album and dvd. Huge thanks to you all, we will definitely recommend you to anyone looking to marry abroad. Thanks again x Anna & Kevin McGuane 13th September 2009 Regards Anna Curling www.annacurling1981@hotmail.com

Our daughter, Laura, and now son-in-law, Scott were married at the Beach on 6 September 2009. Carole and her team were fantastic throughout the whole experience which started around a year before the event took place. The wedding itself went like a dream and I just wish I had another daughter to put through the whole experience again! We knew the area very well before, having visited Hisaronu/Olu Deniz/Fethiye area since the year 2000, and because of this we knew Carole had always been around and were well established all the time we had been visiting the resorts. There’s always “wedding nerves” but these were only created by ourselves and each time we met up with Carole or had a question while we were in the UK we were reassured that it would be alright on the night – and it certainly was and we cannot fault the way the wedding went. Every guest (and there were nearly 40 of them (!) complimented us on the brilliant time they had. Thanks again to the whole team. I also need to thank Alex, the Manager of the Beach, whom we have known for many years and all his staff for keeping our glasses topped up and making sure everyone was happy. Thank you all – just wish we could do it all again........ It was like a dream come true. Pam & Jimmy McKay Laura & Scott Johnstone 6th September
