2012

Hi Carole, First off appologies on the delay with the testimonial, things have been non stop since we got married and we are only now getting round to neing able to do the testimonial. Kelvin and myself would first like to thank Aaron and Lynette for all the support and organisation that he put into our wedding, he was fantastic. The whole wedding was fantastic, we never expected everything to be so easy and straight forward. You took care of everything in and exceptional manor, the wedding completly exceeded all our expectations. The first initial meeting at the site of the wedding was easy and straight forward, Aaron and Lynette talked us through eveything and set our mind at rest for the upcoming ceremony. Everything about the day to Antalya was explained to us and again our minds put to rest. The day to go to antalya itself was quite easy, allthough long, the only thing i would advise it to take something with you to keep you warm when you stop for breakfast, I stupidly went in shorts and vest and froze the whole time over breakfast. I was shocked at how quick everything was when we got to Antalya, allthough i think we chose the wrong day to go to the medical centre as the army were in there getting thier medicals, Typical of our luck. The florist was also fantastic and knew what we wanted and advised us on the best flowrs and the prices were very reasonable. On the day of the wedding I had my hair done by Sharon, who really did have a hard job with my hair as I have alot of it, She was friendly, profesional and efficient, she managed to do my hair and my daughters in the time alloted and that is no easy feat trust me. The Bus arrived to pick up all the guests going to the ceremony, they all got there about 15 minuites before i arrived so they were able to place all thier flowers on thier quits and so forth. The car arrived for me at our hotel and we then made our way to the beach ready for the ceremony, When i got to the venue i couldnt get over how organised everything was, i didnt have to think about anything, other than my nerves. It was just simply beautifully done, my husband became very emotional at the whole experience, the music the beach and of course his beautiful bride. The ceremony was so lovley, the vows were great and i thought they were very fitting, much better than you would get at home. The reception was fantastic, we chose to have a belly dancer, fire dancer and DJ, and i have to say every penny was well spent, the belly dancer got everyone up dancing and got them ready to dance for the evening. The firedancer was superb, he really put on a great show, we would definatly reccomend the entertainment. The food was so nice, the only thing we did wrong was not order enough fish, if i was you i would ask everone before hand how many would like fish, we also had the open bar option, and I must say this was worth its weight in gold, nobody had to worry about bringing money, as alot of us we all inclusive at the hotel it fitted in nicley. All in all we had one of the best weddings we could have found anywhere, and trust me I looked alot. Thank you so much Aaron and Lynette and your team for giving us a fantastic start into married life and helping us to acheive our dream wedding. If anyone would like to ask me questions or wants advice they can e-mail me on kath_elis@live.co.uk , they will also find me on facebook using the same email. Again thanks Kathryn and Kelvin Beach wedding 19th September 2012

Hi Carole Many thanks for all your help through our wedding arrangement. It was such a wonderful day and experience for everyone involved. 'We had experienced seeing the boat leaving fethiye harbour once returning from a day trip and secondly dressed up for an evening wedding ceremony. We were invited onto the boat to see the boat beautifully decorated for this special occasion. From then on we knew and decided to book our wedding with Aaron and Lynette. Carole was clear with her instructions to ensure everything ran smooth leading up to our special day by contacting us on email and responding to any questions promptly. When arriving in Turkey we met with Lynnette and Arun (Carole's daughter and son in law) Who were our wedding coordinators to arrange final details for the day, including the whole day to Antayla for the official signing of paperwork at the British consulate. They were both so friendly and made us at ease. The day started with meeting up with another couple who was having the alternative arrangement of marriage on the beach. The driver was laid back and very friendly with great English. The wedding cake was chosen on this day along with flowers so it broke up the day nicely. The day is finished off by visiting the local doctors to finalise arrangements by asking one question 'Are you mad?' The wedding day itself was unforgettable. A bus picked up all the guests and car picked up Andrea bringing her right to the boat. The boat as we expected was decorated in lilac and purple and was preparing to set sail out of the bay into the sun. The service was conducted in English and Turkish even the translator wore purple along with the driver of the car which adds to the whole experience. We had a belly dancer and a microlite petal drop which all the guests loved. For the whole ceremony we were photographed and video'd and was made to feel very special. A selection of the photos were put into an album which are wonderful. They are so good we had thought they were airbrushed ! We also received a disc with every photo that was taken and six months on the family are still watching the video. The flowers and the wedding cake were beautiful and superb value as the cost in the u.k would of been extortionate. The whole ceremony went so quickly and before we knew it, we were returning back to the bay. My wife was gorgeous and so happy and I am sure this was down to the organisation of the team and exceeded our expectations in all areas. I don't just recommend get married, I recommend you get married with Aaron and Lynette. Oh and there was a firework display in the background whilst we were moored up which the guests thought was part of the ceremony (we still haven't told them that it wasn't) We had a fantastic day - thank you all so very much. Take care Mr and Mrs Sullivan Wedding Yacht 21th August 2012

Hi Carole, and the rest of the team, (Aaron and Lynette, Lynette, Sharon), What can I say one month on since our big day and it fills me with joy everytime I think about it. The wedding you provided us was amazing, with two years of planning, the organising with Carole, constant emails about queries nothing was too much trouble and the customer service could not have been better. When we arrived in Turkey, we were anxous as we had 55 guests from England coming to enjoy our big day and obviously wanted it to be perfect. We met with Aaron and Lynette who explained what would be happening on the day, new to the role Aaron and Lynette was lovely and made us feel at ease. On the day of the wedding Sharon provided me and my bridesmaid with lovely hairstyles, and could not have been nicer, coming to our hotel room made it a lot more relaxing and ensured we did not have to travel, the day of the wedding was particulalry hot also so it enabled us to stay in our air conditioned room until we were collected for the ceremony. Sharon (hairdresser) was amazing and kind, and nothing again was too much trouble, helped that she was english and made communication of hairstyles etc so much easier. The transportation of guests went smoothly, even considering there was so many of us. The ceremony itself was lovely and so well organised, staff involved made it perfect, even providing me with tissues as I walked down to meet Paul (groom). The photos we got were fab, we both even cried when we saw them for the first time, album was put together brilliant and disc and dvd provided us with so many happy memories of the night. Aaron and Lynette was a constant help throughout the night, checking every detail to our particular preferance. Cannot thank Aaron and Lynette enough, all the wedding party thought he was amazing and so helpful not to just me and Paul but to all our guests. Food was amazing, guests all loved it and the drinks package with the all inclusive deal was a fab idea. All in all, even meeting Carol after the wedding and collecting our photos etc was a lovely personal touch and was perfect. Thanks again Carole, wedding was amazing and your staff are a credit to you and you, yourself are so hardworking and deserve all the credit you I am sure get after every wedding you provide. On behalf of myself and my 'new' husband Paul and all of my guests would like to thank you for the most amazing day and giving us all such amazing memories to cherish. Will defo be returning to Olu Deniz, as love it!!!! Lots of love always from Emma and Paul Doyle Beach Wedding 25th August 2012

I contacted Carole in late 2011 and asked her hundreds of questions before booking which were all answered and she put our minds at rest. We have been regular travellers to the area so knew how beautiful the place is. We finally booked the Yacht and the date that we wanted. Carole contacted us on several occasions to advise us when to get the impediment to allow us to marry, to ask about colour schemes and to give us a full and detailed run through of how the order of service would run. We arrived in Turkey 2 weeks before we married and Carole had arranged a meeting on the yacht about a week before, also the consulate appointment in Antalya. The long journey wasn’t bad and the driver was fantastic he stopped when we wanted him to as we were travelling with 2 children, he stopped at some stunning spots so we could grab some fantastic photographs. Carole put me in touch with a hairdresser and beautician she also gave us a mobile phone to enable us to contact her and vice versa. The day itself was perfect, the driver came to our hotel and picked myself and our 3 bridesmaids up whilst the rest of the wedding party were taken to the yacht by coach. On arrival the photographer was waiting and all the guests were on the yacht, we greeted everyone and had some photographs taken. The ceremony was perfect and we loved the vows, simple yet said everything that you would want. Champagne toast some dancing and then more photographs then we sat to eat, the food was lovely and there was plenty for everyone. There was a mic for the speeches if you choose to have them, then the DJ played music that we took with us. The whole team were so good and helpful you can arrange your own seating plan if you wish, you decide on the 1st dance, speeches etc. It’s just so chilled and stress free, I wish we could go back and do it all again and I would not hesitate in recommending Carole and her team to organise your wedding day. We met Carole the day after the wedding in Fethiye to get our paperwork to bring back to the UK and collect our wedding album, photo disk and DVD or our perfect day Paula and Stephen Testimonial Yacht Wedding 28th August 2012
