presummer "the marmara bodrum" wedding

so it was a very beautiful may day in bodrum. not too hot not cold very moderate weather; nature had just woken up it was the celebration of spring. and miray and enis had their union on this beautiful day. i met miray 2 years ago for the first time in göcek at her best friend's wedding. now it was her time. the marmara bodrum as the first day wedding venue, located at the very top of the hill of bodrum, famous with its whole view of the town. miray as a very well organized and perfectionist bride, had thought about very detail both about the wedding and the guests. she worked with lovely la lumiere events on wedding planning and i believe they made great work on that. all the guests staying at the hotel had their welcome boxes and hangover kits; bridesmaids had their own beach bags special for them, and all the guests received scarfs for the cold of the nite time and peshtemal towels &flip-flops for the beach party the next day. everything was thought and arranged for the comfort and the contentment of the guests. miray also didn't forget about her parents, and her in-laws to present them lovely gifts for the memory of the day. as some details miray's dress was from la sposa and classic lovely manolo blahnik shoes as something blue for her big day. she was flawless like the wedding! and if you ask for the groom he enjoyed the day as much as he could with his own gang! his suit from ralph lauren, cufflinks tiffany&co. their invitation, prepared by la lumiere, was inspired by classic bodrum houses covered with fuchsia bougainvilleas which also set the theme of the wedding. they said i do under those beautiful bougainvilleas in front of all their loved ones. 

this wedding is one of those where all the party enjoys the most out of it. the video down below by my colleagues dugmefilm proves that too! to admit it even we enjoyed and danced around a lot! it is a long post so be prepared! i am so glad to be a part of this special day and it was great to meet up with my former couples at this wedding too! dear miray and enis, i hope you guys will be as happy as this day and be the live proof of happily ever after! <3 

 

fairy tale in istanbul.. wedding in adile sultan palace istanbul

on a very hot july day in istanbul duygu and henry-gordon celebrated their union with their loved ones with a very romantic wedding.  on the hills of asian side of istanbul facing bosphorus and europe, duygu and hg picked one of the romantic venue of istanbul; adile sultan palace, which used to be a residence of an ottoman princess adile sultan. meeting in new york, marrying in between two continents is also another story of their love. duygu's precision on details and her overall gorgeousness for the day was flawless. her beautiful amsale dress fluttering with the arms breezes of this very hot summer day, and her natural hair and make up help me a lot with capturing her true beauty. invitations designed by her friends; decorations done by vesaire. 

i loved photographing this beloved couple and meeting with their families was an honor. i hope you will all enjoy this beautiful wedding as much as i did! <3
