Our
Weddings
Alan and
Daphne’s wedding party “on tour” August 2006
Our
personal message to our dearest friends and family
Dear family and friends,
welcome to paradise!!!
 We
both would like to offer you our warmest love and affection
for making the effort to come all the way across to Turkey
to make our special day, just perfect.
We also hope, especially those of you who have never been to
Turkey that you will find Olu Deniz and it’s nearby local
towns somewhere special and of course fall in love with the
local Turkish people (although not literally if you are
married!!) and their custom and warm hospitality.
We have stayed here at the Karbel Hotel in June and believe
it is the nicest hotel in the area. For the benefit of
research we also checked out as many bars as possible during
the week we stayed here, and you really can drink all night
here but 4.15 am was our limit as we are now getting on a
bit!!
 Apart
from the Wednesday evening when we hope you will join us at
the Blue Lagoon on the beach for our brief wedding ceremony
the rest of your stay is “your holiday time” to do as you
wish. However, we hope and believe that most of the group
will enjoy the pleasure of each other’s company, especially
at “happy hour” each day and get to know each other much
better by the end of the holiday.
I would also like to introduce those who do not know them,
and warmly thank Lawrence and Helen for his agreeing to
become my best man at such short notice, for him and his
family to come all this way on my behalf, and believe me
after only a very short period of time you will think you
have known Lawrence for YEARS!!
 I
can honestly say that I am sure that watching the local
Turkish reaction to 3 men in full formal highland dress is
going to be an interesting experience for us all, and NO we
wont be lifting kilts up as we have another 12 days in the
Hotel and I don’t want to frighten (or excite them which
could be worse!!) the locals any more than we will anyway.
Finally, I would like to take this moment to thank Murat
Mali of Koral Travel, who with his wife Seda are now
considered to be our Turkish friends and not just our
wedding organisers for his personal attention to detail on
all the arrangements for our forthcoming wedding which has
been an “interesting experience” for all to put it mildly,
and we are confident it will be a very special day to
remember. They are our wedding guests, along with their
colleague Asli, and I am sure you will all make them most
welcome on the day.
 Murat
has arranged this welcome pack for guests to help explain
about local issues such as transport, currency, local
excursions and customs to make your stay as interesting and
enjoyable as possible. Details of the wedding arrangements
and timings are also included in the pack
Please contact Murat with any questions or advice you may
have during your stay and NOT the honeymoon couple, and once
again we both thank you joining us in paradise for our
wedding.
LET THE PARTY BEGIN………………………BRING IT ON……!
Ps. those of you who arrive earlier on the Friday, you had
better get the drinks in……
All our love
Alan and Daphne
