For anybody who's interested.
last year after staying in calis, we decided to get married in turkey, so a month ago we did. It was the best decision we made, it was fantastic.
we actually stayed in fethiye this time at the ece saray hotel which is beautiful, and got married at club sun city by the blue lagoon. the setting is amazing and we could not have asked for more. on arriving in turkey on the monday, we still needed to sort out a reception venue, we were getting married on the friday. The address restaurant had been recommended to me previously on here so we went to speak to them & they were really helpful, especially as we had 50 people with us! when we arrived at the restaurant it had been decorated for us and they had live music.
the whole day went really well & very smoothly & was so good that my sister inlaw has now booked her wedding for next august on red island.
If anyone would like to explain to me how to put photo's on & I can then I will.

Did you or some of your friends stay in Seaside Residence, think we met them.
-
Lulus - congratulations.
We are getting married in late May next year - very quiet - just the 2 of us and 2 friends as witnesses and we have booked the Ece Saray for a week. We have asked them if we can get married in front of the hotel - but if they are not prepared to do that we will hire a small boat and get collected from the marina in front of the hotel.
We will stay at our apartment before and after that week. I have heard some reports that the food is not that good although I think it was from people who expected a very high standard!
We were there last week, checked out the rooms and were in the middle of making our arrangements when we had to return to the UK unexpectedly due to a family bereavement.
What did you think of the hotel in general terms?

laffa, yes there were a few of our lot at seaside, probably quite noisy too!

Ian, to be honest we only ate at the hotel at breakfast time, which we can't fault. It was very nice, great variety with cooked and turkish. The hotel overall is really good, the staff are very friendly & helpful, everything's really clean. the rooms aren't a bad size & they have got amazing views. The only downside to the hotel is that the air con wasn't even worth using & smells a bit when you use it & the drinks are very overpriced at the bars but then i suppose we should expect that from staying there.

During an extremely wet January weekend, when we took a walk along to the Ece Saray we popped in for a drink and had the best ever Brandy, warmed in a nice glass for the excellent price of £12! Lovely hotel though :)
-
Lulus - thanks for your reply. We will get our moneys-worth out of our half board and walk into town for a drink after dinner!

Hi Lulus, congratulations and good luck for now and the future. we also stayed in Calis for the first time last year and decided to get married this year, we are to be wed at the hotel meri by the lagoon on August 23rd just a samll affair myself and partner Paul (hopefully) my daughter and her friend (bridesmaids) and Pauls two sons and their partners. My daughter doesn't know we are getting married she and her friend think they are being bridesmaids for a friend of ours and we will surprise her on Monday 20th when the boys arrive for the wedding! we haven't told anyone we will surprise family and friends when we get back. How long did it take you to get to the consulate in Antalya? and is this quite a straight forward process? would leve to see your photos.

Good luck with your wedding LindaW, sounds like it will be a lovely surpise for everyone.
It took about 2 hours to get to antalya but we did have a driver that drove like he was on a race track! We had already forwarded photocopies of our documents to our travel agents who in turn sent them to turkey, and we had someone with us for the day, seemed quite straight forward just a matter of getting people to sign/stamp the documents.
I hope your wedding goes well.
