An outdoor wedding in Sarıyer, beneath the trees

The ceremony is usually set on the lawn among the trees. The hour before sunset gives the best light there, and it's the slot most couples ask for.

Dinner follows in the garden, seated. We build the menu with you around the season and your numbers, and what's on the plates includes produce from our own garden.

When the night ends you can stay in the bungalows. Six of them usually covers the couple and their closest guests.

The next morning a farm-to-table breakfast is laid for anyone still with you — it tends to work like a second day.

Capacity depends on which spaces you use and how you seat them. Share your numbers and date and we'll work out the layout together.

The food is prepared by our own kitchen; we don't take outside catering. That's part of how the place works, and we plan the menu with you.

Every wedding is planned alongside an indoor alternative. Weather on the Black Sea coast turns quickly, so we work that scenario through when the date is confirmed.

May to October is the comfortable window for garden-led weddings. In July and August the afternoon heat decides a great deal, so ceremonies usually move to early evening.

September carries the heaviest demand — it's the most balanced month for both weather and light. Those dates go early.

May and June are quieter while the garden is at its fullest. For budget and availability together, it's often the best stretch of the year.

Because we take a limited number of dates, a few months ahead is sensible. Late summer and September in particular close early.

For a first conversation, numbers, an approximate date and the shape you have in mind are enough. If you'd like to walk the spaces, weekdays are easier to arrange.
