Hi Carole

We would just like to drop you a quick line to thank you very much for organising our Wedding in Fetiye. From our initial contact, through to the actual day itself and even after, the help, advice and effort you put into our special day was more than appreciated by not only ourselves but also the 32 other guests that attended.

The boat, the setting, the food and the friendly service surpassed anything we imagined and would have no hesitation in recommending you to other people in the future.

Special thanks also to Jamie and Teresa, who looked after us on the long trip to Antalya to obtain the various legal documents, we must admit, we were dreading this day but together, they made the trip enjoyable and could not have been more accommodating.

We would also like to thank the hairdressers who had their work cut out with myself and the bridesmaids, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The hospitality (nice pizza!!) and excellent service made for a relaxing and stress free afternoon.

Many thanks again for making our day so memorable and feel free to pass on our details should anyone require a testimonial.

Feel free to put the photos on the website - will be fun having a look at them on there!
We will no doubt be visiting Turkey again in the future so will make sure we book some trips with you!
All the best

Hi Carole ,

Hope you are well and not missing my consent flow of emails!

We would just like to thank you once again for making our wedding day absolutely fantastic. We can not fault it one bit. Everything ran like clockwork, our guests were collected exactly when you said they would be, the yacht was just perfect, the ceremony lovely, the meal very tasty and plentiful, etc, etc, etc...We could just carry on as every aspect was "spot on"!

After trawling through the internet we stumbled upon your site www.weddingsturkey.com and boy are we glad we did, you gave us the best day of our lives.

For anyone wanting to get married in Turkey we can not recommend Carole enough, she organises everything with military precision. We were a little apprehensive (who wouldn't be letting a total stranger organise their wedding day without even meeting them!), but we can honestly say there is no need to worry, Carole organises everything for you, she's only an email away and any question or query you might have is answered virtually by return.

We weren't looking forward to our day sorting out the boring legal stuff, but it actually went surprisingly quickly. We were collected from our hotel at 6am the week before the wedding and were taken to Antalya (British Consulate's office and another office, to get our papers stamped) then back to Fethiye to registrars office (I think!), then to florist to choose the flowers. We met Carole for the first time, to go over our final arrangements for "the big day", she even gave us a mobile phone so that we could contact her easily if we had any further questions or concerns ( we didn't need it, we had no worries!) Then we were taken back to our hotel, we got back about 5pm, (long day, but necessary).

We were watching a report on Watch Dog the other night about Thomas Cook Weddings abroad, it just seemed like a fiasco, very impersonal and rushed, definitely not the dream wedding you wish for, if you want a perfect wedding, again we'd recommend Carole and her team... EXCELLENT!!!

Thanks again, and look forward to seeing you again next time we're in Turkey

Hi Carole

We just wanted to say how pleased we where with the service you provided for our wedding and how much we really enjoyed the whole experience, from going to Antalya with the lovely Teresa and Jamie , everything was sorted for us, all we had to do was pick our colour scheme and the cake. to you sorting out the hairdressers. the beach venue was suberb and lovely views and the champagne after was lovely too and i don't usely like it.

to start with when we booked the wedding we where really worried that we where going to be ripped off but you kept in contact with us by email and also let us know the date of the wedding, not long after booking.

when we arrived in turkey you gave us the date to go to the consulate and even though it was an early pickup Teresa and Jamie put us at ease and Teresa did most of the work herself, we just did what she told us, it was a long day but worthwhile getting all the wedding paperwork sorted out , we picked the cake on the way back and the other couple with us, also getting married where taken to the flower shop to pick there flowers.

The next day we met you (carol) and you went through everything with us, where we where sitting and also the vows, you gave us a mobile to use if we needed it ( dozy me left it in the room when i went to hairdressers and could of done with it as the resort we where staying on, left the driver waiting twenty min before they let him in ), the hairdressers where fantastic, it was just me and my mum getting our hair done and i was so pleased with mine, i started crying, i had my makeup done too and my mum had her eyebrows , hair and makeup done and looked lovely.the prices where all in English and i paid in English.

we had a minibus pick up my hubby to be and 14 guest, me and my mum got picked up after they left and the journey there was lovely.

when we got there, carol told us when to walk and the bridesmaids walked in front, when the music started, i had tears in my eyes, the whole experience was beautiful, the cake tasted lovely and we could take our time having photos and our music played in the background.

After the wedding we had arranged to have our meal at the resort where we where staying ( the club Letoonia ) as it was A/I.

All in all the whole experience was beautiful.

Thank you to you Carol and your lovely staff xxxx

Hi Carole ,

Hope you are well and enjoying some time off after your busy season. We must say thank you so much to you and your team for making our day so special. We had 29 guests ranging from 2-75 years who all said how much they enjoyed the day.

From the moment we contacted Carole last October 2009 everything was explained ,The trip to Antalya was fine and Jamie and Teresa who took us were both lovely people and made the day seem shorter than it was. We were taken to the wedding venue before our big day where we met Carole who went through all the fine details. Nothing was to much trouble.

Music wise we had decided not to have a DJ but make our own compilations up and play them through the venues sound system which sound wise was excellent. On the day of the wedding all of our guests met at our hotel for drinks and the coach picked us up at 5.30pm to take us to the lagoon. Caroline was picked up at 5.50 pm in a decorated Mercedes and walked down onto the beach to the music of Kenny G'S Songbird. Everything about the wedding could not be faulted.

The wedding itself was just what we wished for. So relaxing and the setting in the lagoon was stunning. At the end of our lovely day we all decided to be dropped off next to the beach and partied on at the help bar before walking back up the main street to our hotel.

The photos and video were ready within 2 days.The album of A4 size pictures were perfect and there was nearly 300 on the cd. It was great to watch the dvd on returning home and will always be a lovely reminder of our day. In summing up we would recommend you to anyone thinking of getting married in Olu Deniz and we will be returning in the near future.
Love and best wishes.
