Mr and Mrs Dobbs

Hi Carole, We would just like to say 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 our guests. when we arrived in turkey you gave us the date to go to the consulate and even though it was an early pick up it was a long day but worthwhile getting all the wedding paperwork sorted out , we picked the cake on the way back and went to the flower shop to pick our flowers both of which were lovely. you also arranged for the flowers to be delivered to the hotel so we could hand to our guests. We were even able to provide you with our own music and a schedule of when to play each song. The boat looked amazing and we were blown away by how beautiful it was. You matched our colour scheme perfectly and everything from the table decorations to the food was outstanding. our guests commented on what a perfect way to get married on a boat at sunset absolute paradise! The wedding vows were read in both Turkish and English and were beautiful . Following the champagne toast and lots of photos with a backdrop of the sunset and breathtaking views, we took our tables for the reception. Again the attention to detail was faultless with a little dainty parcel of Turkish delight at every place setting. Our thanks to everyone involved in making ours and our guests such a "PERFECT" day And even when the day itself is over, it doesn't stop there...The photo's, the album and DVD are also amazing... A great way for family and friends who could not be there to be a part of our special day. 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 would be very happy for you to use our album photos on your website if you so wish. Again Carole and your wonderful staff Thank you so much for everything and we are hoping to return to renew our vows one day. We wish you the best for many more weddings in the future.

Dear Carole

Dear Carole Our story goes something like this..... As we met on holiday in Turkey it seemed the only logical place to get married there too. My first idea was to have a garden wedding but when I started my research it became apparent that this would be very expensive and I didn't really want a beach wedding. Then a friend that lives in Ovacik, Turkey said "Carole & Tayfun do weddings on their yacht" We had been on a few boat trips so were familiar with the company so were confident that they were reliable and turned out to be very inexpensive compared to the bigger tour operators. Having an apartment in Ovacik put us in a very fortunate position - meaning that we could meet Carole and see the yacht dressed for a wedding before we booked. So having seen it we booked and sent the deposit when we got home, then we started the count down... Carole sent us loads of information so that we could get the right documents we required, from where and when. We knew that we would have to take a long trip to Antalya to the Consulate before the wedding so we decided to take an extra holiday in May to get this out of the way. Lucky we did as whilst in Antalya my fiance decided to pull the door off the minibus we were travelling in . So poor Gurer our driver and translator, being the consummate professional that he is, had to make an unexpected stop at a garage to get it fixed before we could travel back safely. Unfortunately this made us late for our appointments back in Fethiye and despite every effort made by Carole & Gurer we had to make new clinic appointments for the following day. This was ok for us but we felt really sorry for the other couple who were getting married the day after (sorry for the extra stress guys). Anyhow onto July. Carole and her daughter Lynnette met us at our apartment a few days before the wedding and we made all the final arrangements sitting in the sun on the balcony with a cold drink - easy. We had already booked the singer and a belly dancer but kept this information from our guests. On the day of the wedding my bridesmaid & I were picked up from our hotel in Fethiye and taken to the hairdressers where Sharon and her team made us look fabulous. I highly recommend them - my hair looked the best it has ever looked. Then back to the hotel to get changed and wait for our car. The groom and all the guests were picked up from there respective hotels etc and taken to the yacht so when we arrived they were all clapping & cheering - I felt like a celebrity. We had a lady Imam perform the ceremony which was lovely. The whole evening went without a hitch. I hadn't wanted a cake but had cupcakes instead which were gorgeous I'm told!! The entertainment was a great surprise and all the guests had a thoroughly good time especially some of the men who really enjoyed dancing with the belly dancer!! When the end of the night came we didn't want to leave so with hind sight we should have paid extra for another hour. Everyone piled on the coach and we had a sing along back to Ovacik. The next day, a little bleary eyed, we met Carole for the final paper work and unbelievably she gave us our photo album and cd's - I couldn't believe they were ready and are fantastic quality with loads of pictures and the video is brilliant.

Rachael and Darren Martin

Thank you so much for giving Darren and myself a truly magical wedding. It was out of this world. Initially we were worried about booking our wedding online, as you hear so many horror stories, but you and your team provided a stress free, professional and A class service. all the information you provided online, was extremely useful and allowed us to be organised and prepared for our wedding. all emails and queries were answered promptly. The Antalya trip is a long day, but the driver was great company, the scenery on the drive was stunning. I would highly recommend the hairdresser, she did a stunning job with me and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. and the mobile phone provided was essential. as for the wedding itself the yacht was set up beautifully and the crew provided a fabulous service, there was a bit of a problem with the music as the sound system wasn't compatible with my ipod. however the DJ did a stand up job and kept us dancing all night. the setting for our wedding was just perfect, with the sunset and scenery. we couldn't have asked for better weather. the photographer and camera man were superb, the photos are stunning, and the album we received was good quality with full sized photos on each page. the food was of a high standard and the free bar was drank dry. the cake looked and tasted amazing. the only down side to the whole experience is that it went by so fast. all the little details really made it for me, like the hand crafted ring cushion, waving goodbye to the registrar as he left in his little boat, and the attention to detail with everything, you clearly love what you do and it shows All our guests said that it was one of the best weddings they had been to and loved the yacht, i know that your big day is supposed to be all about the bride and groom, but all our guests were given the same quality care and attention we were. Once again i just want to say Thanks again Carole for a truly unforgettable PERFECT wedding we really couldn't have asked for any more. please feel free to use any of our photos for your site. I would highly recommend you to anyone and have all ready, if anyone wants to email me about anything feel free, rachaeljukes@hotmail.com. we will be back next year for our anniversary.

Rebecca and Mark

Our wedding was may 2012 and went for a beach wedding, what a beautiful setting to get married. Everything was very well organised from before we arrived in turkey. The trip to Antalya which we worried about was good fun as we had another couple with us. We were given a mobile and and had regular contact with Carole. We all had our hair and nails etc done at gold finger salon which was excellent and would highly recommend. Our wedding day was really perfect and I couldn't have asked for any more. Food really nice and added bonus was the open bar! Our guests all loved the day and location. Thank you Carole and co for a day we won't ever forget. Rebecca and Mark Beach wedding may 31st 2012
